What’s New:
How secure is your gateway?

n today’s digital age, one of the most critical features of a pay-
ment gateway is security. In fact, most payment professionals
will tell you the payment gateway is what protects every trans-
I action. While this assessment isn’t that far off, other security
measures on the processing and merchant sides must also be in place
to complement the gateway’s security framework. Altogether, they
constitute a robust and risk-free environment that is safe from pay-
ment fraud.
“Having a certified, reputable and reliable gateway solution behind
transactions is paramount to ensuring a merchant’s payment services
architecture is 100% safe from outside intruders,” said Ben Goretsky,
CEO at USAePay. “This means the savvy merchant will want to know
details about gateway up time, credentials and version upgrade
practices before they sign on with any merchant services provider,
POS company or payment-enabled software maker.”
Due diligence pays off

Of course, if you’re one of these service providers, you will also
want to strategically align with a gateway partner that will back
you and your customers up every step of the way. Therefore, you’ll
need to do up-front due diligence to review security practices and
how a gateway service provider’s overall support model works long before you forge a partnership agreement or begin
boarding customers. Additionally, it is good to know what practices the third-party gateway provider has in place for
communicating critical information about security practices and certifications both to you, and more importantly, to
your customer. If you’re looking to integrate a third-party gateway into your software, you’ll also want to be assured the
gateway partner is completely forthcoming about their internal practices for upgrading security standards, and staying
abreast of the latest security initiatives within the payments industry.
A stellar record

“USAePay offers a documented 99.99% up-time and integrity record and an uncompromised promise that our technologies
are always in compliance with the latest security standards within the industry,” continued Martin Drake, President at
USAePay.
