EMV Initiative Will Impact Your Credit Card Processing
 Shannon Devery and David Cherney from Digital Financial Group (DFG) want to alert ASCCA members that the European Mastercard Visa (EMV) Initiative, taking effect in October 2015, raises the liability risk for shop owners who don't get an EMV capable terminal. EMV is a more secure type of credit card. It is not mandatory to use it, but DFG recommends you upgrade your equipment. |
