As the EMV compliance deadline approaches, VP Racing and Allied Brand Capital will offer strategies and solutions to NACS attendees.

VP Racing Fuels and Allied Brand Capital will jointly hold a panel discussion at the upcoming NACS Show. A panel of industry leaders and experts will discuss strategies and solutions for achieving EMV compliance, just in time the October 2015 deadline.

Attendees will be invited to interact with the panel to learn everything they need to know about EMV migration and what the deadline means to their business, according to Mike Cerminaro, president of Allied Brand Capital, who will co-host and moderate the discussion.

“With our panel, retailers can pose questions to the foremost technology experts in their respective fields and learn about state-of-the-art solutions that will help future-proof their POS platform.  The session will explore ways to prioritize your EMV assessment strategy, identify your specific needs and implement an EMV solution to better position your business for the liability shift and reduce your risk of payment card fraud.” 

“We know the new EMV compliance guidelines can be complex and confusing, so finding the right POS solution is not an easy task,” Cerminaro added.  “Knowing and understanding the language and requirements of EMV will prepare you to better evaluate and make the right decisions while avoiding installation mistakes and duplicative spending.”

Scheduled Tuesday, October 13 at 9 a.m., the panel discussion will take place in Room N261 at the Las Vegas Convention Center and includes a continental breakfast.  Attendees also will be eligible to win door prizes including an iPad mini and assorted gift cards.  RSVPs are encouraged as space is limited.
