To help retailers better understand compliance and payment security, Gilbarco Veeder-Root has launched an interactive payment security Web site, askaboutpci.com. The site lets retailers learn directly from Gilbarco payment security experts and includes powerful information featuring:

  • Video questions and answers from industry experts.
  • Downloadable white papers regarding PCI compliance.
  • A blog forum for asking questions and discussion.
  • A process for retailers to get a one-on-one consultation and a personalized compliance plan.
  • Links to breaking news, product information, regulatory and payment Web sites.

    “Customer input has highlighted the need for an expert forum to discuss and share information about payment security requirements and solutions,” said Scott McDowell, Gilbarco’s marketing manager for payment products. “Gilbarco Veeder-Root is well positioned to host such a forum. We view our role as helping retailers understand the requirements and fraud threats so they can make the most informed decisions.”

    Visitors to the site can register and receive the free white paper, “Payment Card Industry (PCI) Checklist” written by security expert Barrie VanBrackle, partner with the firm of Manatt, Phelps & Phillips, LLP in Washington, D.C. The paper helps retailers focus on compliance issues related to PCI Data Security Standards, PCI PIN Entry Device, and PCI Encrypting PIN Pad.
