Merchant PCI DSS Compliance Introduction


The Payment Card Industry (PCI) Data Security Standards (DSS) are now required for all merchants, including:
  • Retail (brick-and-mortar)
  • Mail/telephone order
  • e-Commerce

All major credit card associations such as Visa, MasterCard, American Express, Discover, Diners Club and JCB all endorse, and require the unified PCI Data Security Standards.
