Merchant Warehouse, ID Tech Create "Out-of-Scope" Payment Solution

Merchant Warehouse, a provider of merchant accounts and credit card processing solutions, announced the release of Merchantware 4.0, and the recently completed integration with ID Tech into the Merchantware suite of products. Merchantware 4.0 provides a streamlined integration process for point-of-sale (POS) developers and also includes complete support of ID Tech standard and enhanced versions of their SL Secure Line of products. Merchantware now supports ID Tech’s SecureKey M130 and SecureMag products, as well as Triple Data Encryption Standard (TDES) and Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) methods. Merchantware 4.0 and its integration with ID Tech is currently being demonstrated at Merchant Warehouse’s booth, No. 207, at the RSPA RetailNow Conference, July 24-27 in Orlando, Fla.

 

With Merchantware 4.0, the new streamlined procedure means developers can find tailor-made integration processes with the click of a button. By further improving the Merchantware integration process, developers can save time allowing them to bring secure payment solutions to market sooner.

 

ID Tech chose the Merchantware Payment Gateway as a preferred decryption service for its line of secure devices. The partnership allows merchants and POS developers to combine ID Tech’s encrypted card readers and keypads with Merchantware’s API to offer an end-to-end encryption solution. PA-DSS compliance is dramatically simplified for POS developers, often taking them “out-of-scope” for PA-DSS audits, and minimizes the complexity and costs of PCI compliance for merchants. By offering a payment solution where both swiped and keyed transactions are protected with end-to-end encryption, merchants can be assured that sensitive card data information is never “in the clear.”

 

With the addition of the ID Tech line of devices, Merchantware has another “out-of-scope” payment solution for developers. Merchantware’s other “out-of-scope” solution is its Transport Platform which provides PA-DSS validated hosted payment solutions for all point-of-sale, ecommerce, shopping carts and SaaS environments.
