Reduce your compliance costs by using InstaMed’s recommended options
Any system that has access to cardholder data or unencrypted credit card number is subject to PCI compliance requirements. This includes any website or application where:
- Users key in card numbers directly into your application (including websites where the data is encrypted later)
- Users input card numbers using unencrypted devices
Recommended Options
You can avoid touching credit cards by using encrypted card entry devices or using InstaMed options that handle card numbers for you.
