FIME Releases Enhanced EMV Terminal Testing Platform

11/4/2014
Payments consultancy FIME  announced SAVVI 2.0, an updated and streamlined version of its EMV terminal testing and certification management tool. With SAVVI 2.0, FIME introduces a simplified user interface, online test card maintenance capabilities and programmable test cards to its trusted test platform. SAVVI 2.0 is available immediately for MasterCard terminal testing and certification with other major U.S. card brands to follow in the next few months.
 
FIME’s SAVVI 2.0’s simplified and more flexible user experience allows for accelerated testing and certification to get EMV terminals into the market more quickly. The platform can also be combined with consulting services for additional guidance and a more seamless process. Features of SAVVI 2.0 include:
 
Streamlined user interface: Improved user interface allows for a more intuitive experience with step-by-step instructions through the testing process for both experienced testers and testers new to chip technology.
 
Choice of test media: SAVVI 2.0 test cards provide flexibility for testers, allowing them to choose the test media that best fit their needs – physical test cards, a programmable test card or a combination of both. Programmable test cards are built on the same payment application as FIME’s reliable physical test cards, adding a level of convenience desired by many terminal testers.
 
Fast online test card maintenance: Test case updates are delivered electronically to SAVVI to ensure testers have fast access to the latest test cases. The test tool automatically compares the current version to the updates available on FIME’s secure online library to ensure testers know when a new update is available. Keeping the certification test plan up-to-date is essential to ensure compliance with the latest testing requirements from the payment systems.
  
In the U.S., SAVVI 2.0 is part of FIME’s comprehensive consulting offering for payments stakeholders undergoing EMV chip migration. The package can ensure successful, cost-effective and efficient migrations for organizations of any size and at any stage of implementation. FIME’s EMV chip migration package options include:
