Network Merchants Releases Customer Vault |
|
|
|
NetworkMerchants has released The Customer Vault, which provides PCI Certified Remote Storage of Payment Information. The Customer
Vault was designed specifically for businesses of any size to address concerns
about handling customer payment information.
The Customer Vault allows
merchants to transmit their payment information for remote storage in
NetworkMerchants' Level 1 PCI certified data facility. Once the customer record
has been securely transmitted to the Customer Vault, the merchant can then
initiate transactions remotely without having to access credit card or
electronic check information directly. This process is accomplished without the
merchant storing the customer's payment information in their local database or
payment application.
"Merchants can use our standard services in
conjunction with the Customer Vault to process transactions without transmitting
any payment information through their web application -- this eliminates the
burden of dealing with PCI Compliancy," said Nick Starai, Vice President of
Product Development for NetworkMerchants. "This unique approach provides best of
class application flexibility without any PCI compliancy concerns."
