Navigate the EMV Liability Shift

Shift your POS payment system into high gear to improve customer experience and reduce payment risk.

Book This Workshop

Not having an EMV-compliant POS system or implementing the solution poorly can lead to:

  • Increased fraud exposure
  • Increased merchant liability
  • Increased PCI scope
  • Reduced customer experience
  • Tarnished brand identity
  • Lengthened implementation time
  • Poorly trained staff that cannot operate under a new EMV-enabled process

An effectively implemented EMV-compliant solution results in:

  • Reduced fraud exposure
  • Reduced merchant liability
  • Reduced PCI scope
  • Lower transaction fees
  • Improved customer experience
  • Trained staff who are able to manage the new transaction process
  • Clear direction towards contactless payment migration
