EMV ATM: An ATM with a chip card reader that meets the current Canadian card-security standard. Every machine we sell is EMV-ready.
PCI compliance: Security standards for handling cardholder data, met mainly through a PCI-compliant encrypting PIN pad. All our ATMs ship PCI compliant.
ATM processing: The service that authorizes withdrawals and settles the cash dispensed plus your surcharge back into your bank account.
ATM surcharge: The convenience fee a cardholder accepts before withdrawing cash. As the ATM owner, you set it and keep it as revenue.
