Merchants now have access to more reliable transaction processing, simplified PCI compliance and POS network visibility.

Comdata, a leading provider of fleet management and B2B payment solutions, announced this week that it is now reselling Acumera’s reliable and secure payment processing solutions to Comdata merchants for transactions on its Comdata payment network for Comdata POS customers.

Comdata’s merchants can now take advantage of Acumera’s secure network connectivity and the advanced features of their network security device. For even more payment reliability, the Acumera solution also comes with WAN Failover for automated back-up connectivity in the event of an internet outage.

“We are excited to begin this partnership with Acumera,” said Pat O’Donnell, Comdata Merchant Services senior vice president. “Comdata merchants will benefit from Acumera’s simple installation process, reliable payment connections and their stellar network support.”

Merchants will be able to use the same device to manage and secure existing and new network services and systems, such as loyalty, digital signage, ATM, fuel tank monitoring, accounting and inventory packages, and more. All connections are monitored 24×7 by Acumera’s network operations center (NOC), and visible in the merchant’s instance of the AcuVigil Network Monitoring Dashboard to speed up troubleshooting and remote support.

Also, the partnership gives customers access to Acumera’s entire portfolio of cloud-managed network and security services.

“This partnership gives Comdata customers access to our cloud-managed platform which will streamline payments and network operations, enhance network security, and simplify their PCI compliance,” said Acumera CEO Dirk Heinen. “This cost-effective solution delivers reliable connectivity for payment processing and gives merchants access to our entire suite of network management and security services to reduce their network complexity.”

Brentwood, Tennessee-based Comdata partners with more than 30,000 businesses to better manage $55B in annual fleet, corporate purchasing, payroll and healthcare spending, making it one of the largest fuel card issuers and the second largest commercial MasterCard provider in the United States and Canada.
