CHARGE Anywhere Announces PA-DSS Application Certification for Windows Mobile

September 22, 2011 by Mobile Payment Magazine

CHARGE Anywhere a provider of secure mobile payment and payment gateway solutions, announced today certification with Payment Card Industry Standard Security Council’s (PCI SSC) Payment Application Data Security Standard (PA-DSS) program (previously called the Visa Payment Application Best Practice (PABP) Program) for version 2.0.0.17 of the CHARGE Anywhere Payment Application for Windows Mobile.

With CHARGE Anywhere Payment Application for Windows Mobile merchants can effortlessly turn any Smartphone or Tablet into a fully functional and secure point-of-sale terminal. The Windows based credit card processing solution allows businesses to securely process and manage credit card transactions from their mobile devices.

“Certification with Payment Card Industry Standard Security Council’s Payment Application Data Security Standard (PA-DSS) program demonstrates CHARGE Anywhere’s ongoing commitment to maintaining a secure and reliable platform that assists merchants in protecting themselves against unscrupulous hackers intending to steal valuable information,” said Paul Sabella, President and CEO. “CHARGE Anywhere is pleased to be able to offer our customers products and solutions that meet the industry’s highest level of security.”

The PCI SSC developed the PA-DSS based upon the Visa Payment Application Best Practices (PABP) to direct software vendors to create and maintain secure payment applications to reduce vulnerability of merchants and minimize data breaches. Compliance with the PA-DSS is determined based upon data and information developed by an evaluation of the application by a Payment Application Qualified Security Assessor approved by the PCI SSC. Today the adherence to PCI DSS is mandatory for banks, processing centers, financial organizations and merchants working with payment brands.

CHARGE Anywhere’s distinct mobile point-of-sale solution for iPhone, BlackBerry, Android, Windows Mobile, Java and Brew Platforms, allow users to process payments securely and in real-time. The exclusive solution allows users to capture and download mission critical business data above and beyond traditional credit card data such as signature, invoice number, employee number, tips, GPS location and more. CHARGE Anywhere’s solution also has the capability to eliminate the need to store paper receipts with electronic signature capture, storage and retrieval.
