PCI DSS Certification for Monek's integrated payment terminals

PCI DSS Certification for Monek's integrated payment terminals

For merchants using one of our approved Point of Sale software partners alongside our payment terminals, the solution is fully PCI DSS compliant. 

You will still have to complete a PCI DSS questionnaire as per the instructions from your Acquiring bank or their appointed Assessor. The questionnaire that is applicable to your solution with Monek is called 'SAQB-IP'. If this is not the questionnaire that your Acquirer is asking you to complete, please confirm the below information to them and ask them to direct you to 'SAQB-IP':

1. All processing for each Chip and PIN or Swiped transaction is handled directly on the Pin Entry Device (PED).

2. Cardholder data is never transmitted between the PED, Monek or POS software.

3. Authorisation messages transmitted to the Payment Gateway Client are encrypted using industry standard SSL/TLS.

4. All handling of the authorisation message is done by Monek PCI DSS level 1 accredited systems.
