U.S. Bankcard Services, Inc. Prepares Merchant Account Holders for Nationwide 2010 PCI Compliance
U.S. Bankcard Services, Inc. Prepares Merchant Account Holders for Nationwide 2010 PCI Compliance
U.S. Bankcard Services, Inc., a leader in credit card processing, is taking strides to improve the merchant experience by preparing their Elavon merchant account holders for PCI Compliance. All merchants are required to comply with PCI DSS and all payment applications must be PA DSS certified and validated by July 2010. Notifications of validation options will be distributed throughout the remainder of the year. Merchants have 90 days to comply.
City of Industry, CA. (PRWEB) September 23, 2009 – By the end of 2009, any Elavon merchant that processes, stores, and/or transmits cardholder data will have to comply to the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS), a set of bankcard association requirements intended to ensure a secure processing environment. U.S. Bankcard Services, Inc., a leader in credit card processing, seeks to educate Elavon merchant account holders about the impending changes to the current standards.
All merchants are required to comply with PCI DSS. U.S. Bankcard Services, Inc. and Elavon have partnered with Trustwave Information Security and Compliance to ensure all their mutual merchants receive the best possible service and protection. Existing merchants boarded before October 2008 and not previously notified of validation requirements should have received a notice in August explaining how to become validated. Any merchant not validated will be billed a non-compliance monthly fee on their September statement. Merchants that meet the requirements for Multi Locations as it relates to the PCI Compliance program, as well as merchants on a Foreign Network, have been excluded from this mailing and will be addressed in a separate mailing later in 2009. Merchants boarded between October 1, 2008 and August 10, 2009 will be provided with compliance notifications beginning November 2009.
All merchants will be categorized into one of four levels to be determined by the merchant’s Visa transaction volume over a 12-month period. Deadlines are specific for different levels. For more information, visit http://usa.visa.com/merchants/risk_management/cisp_merchants.html. U.S. Bankcard Services, Inc. merchants have 90 days after notification to provide their compliance validation certificate through the Trustwave website or a $20 non-compliance fee will be assessed monthly until validation is provided. Currently, all US merchants accepting Visa, MasterCard, American Express, and/or Discover are required to be PCI compliant and those processing through U.S. Bankcard Services, Inc. will be included in the Elavon PCI Compliance program with the exception of Cash Advance locations.
To provide the compliance certificate provided by a Qualified Security Assessor (QSA) other than Trustwave to Elavon, U.S. Bankcard Services, Inc. merchants should access www.pci.elavon.com and upload certification materials to Trustwave. Trustwave will review and confirm the validity of the information, and provide Elavon with the appropriate status which will ensure that the appropriate PCI Validation Fee will be assessed. Merchants without Internet access can contact U.S. Bankcard Services, Inc.’s Customer Service department via fax (1-888-688-8396) or phone (1-888-468-1155) to obtain the appropriate validation documents through Trustwave.

U.S. Bankcard Services, Inc. Creates Video to Urge U.S Donations for Typhoon Morakot Disaster Relief
U.S. Bankcard Services, Inc. Creates Video to Urge U.S Donations for Typhoon Morakot Disaster Relief
Since August 8, 2009, Typhoon Morakot's aftermath has left over a hundred dead and thousands displaced. Partnered with the Tzu Chi Foundation, the Taipei Economic and Cultural Office in Los Angeles, and Chinese Yellow Pages, U. S. Bankcard Services, Inc. has created digital and print media to seek American donations for Typhoon Morakot disaster relief.
City of Industry, Calif. (PRWEB) August 27, 2009 -- In response to Typhoon Morakot's aftermath, merchant service provider U.S. Bankcard Services, Inc. has created a video to urge U.S. donations for disaster relief in southern Taiwan. Joined by the Tzu Chi Foundation and the Taipei Economic and Cultural Office in Los Angeles, U. S. Bankcard Services has created digital and print media to seek American donations for Typhoon Morakot disaster relief.
Since Typhoon Morakot's torrential rains ravaged southern Taiwan on August 8, 2009, there has been 123 confirmed deaths and more than 380 people presumed dead. More than 1.5 million were forced to evacuate their homes. 14,000 have been displaced, with 5,000 living in camps after their homes were destroyed by the most devastating typhoon to hit Taiwan in over half a century. Though the typhoon has since moved, large numbers of people are still without water or electricity, and there has been a significant damage to crops, livestock fisheries, forestry, and infrastructure.
"U.S. Bankcard Services is deeply mournful for the aftermath of Typhoon Morakot in Southern Taiwan, and for the thousands of men, women, and children who have lost their homes," says U.S. Bankcard Services President and CEO Chris Chang. "By creating this video, we hope to unite resources through media so we can pay tribute to the resilient and courageous Taiwanese spirit and aid those in need."
For maximum exposure, U.S. Bankcard Services has posted their video in YouTube, Facebook, Twitter, and other Web communities, such as the Chinese Yellow Pages. In addition, U.S. Bankcard Services has dedicated an exclusive website for the Typhoon Morakot disaster relief efforts (usbsi.com/88).
