Prepare today to ensure that you have the latest payment security software updates
Payment data security is critical to your business. That’s why we’re transitioning to a new, more secure Entrust digital certificate that must be downloaded and in place before December 31, 2020, to avoid processing interruption. Digital certificates ensure that the encrypted, sensitive information you send to us for payment processing, and the information we send back to you regarding the payment, is recognized and secure.
Take action!
