Equinox Payments and ACCEO Tender Retail Deliver PCI 5.x-certified P2PE-ready Solutions on First Data Platform
Semi-integrated interface supports EMV and contactless and speeds time to market
Advanced security including PCI 5.x, SRED and Point-to-Point Encryption (P2PE) combine to extend peace of mind and reduce the costs and hassles of annual PCI compliance validation. The solution meets the extensive PCI Security Standards Council’s P2PE standards and enables remote key injection and software downloads to deliver operational efficiencies.
“Working with the Luxe terminal family allowed us to seamlessly migrate our existing Linux application directly onto the Luxe terminals, preserving our leading feature-rich solutions that merchants expect of us,” said Joey Vaccaro, vice president, Business Development, ACCEO Solutions.
“The boldly unique design of our Luxe terminals, backed by the highest PCI security standards and coupled with ACCEO Tender Retail’s semi-integrated EMV-certified software, mitigates the costs and complexities of annual PCI compliance while improving the check-out experience,” said Rob Hayhow, vice president, Equinox Payments.
By integrating ACCEO’s Tender Retail software on the Luxe 8500i and Luxe 6200m, merchants and POS vendors gain unprecedented access to fully integrated customer engagement in a semi-integrated environment. Operating the payment application directly on the device reduces the overhead related to PCI compliance and eliminates the expenses associated with legacy proprietary and restrictive terminal-based middleware software for semi-integrated configurations. Modern design elements including a vivid display encourage customer engagement and improve the payment experience.
