The first thing that occurs is an extra monthly fee will be applied. This charge serves as an incentive for you to complete your PCI compliance. By finishing your annual questionnaire, you help us confirm that you are processing cards safely and securely. If you opt NOT to complete your yearly questionnaire, you risk the following:
- Using potentially insecure or risky processing methods could lead to fraud or a data breach, which may be very costly for your organization.
- Violating card association regulations. Visa, MasterCard, Discover, and Amex have specific rules, and part of PCI compliance ensures your organization adheres to these guidelines. If these associations find that you consistently break the rules, they might suspend your ability to accept credit cards.
- Monthly non-compliance fees. We don’t want you to incur these fees and are here to ensure your account is 100% compliant.
