PCI COMPLIANCE
The card brands require merchants to be Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS) compliant. This is accomplished by completing a Self Assessment Questionnaire (SAQ) and running network vulnerability scans. The SAQ is required annually, while scanning intervals vary depending upon the type of account.

FINANCIAL EXPOSURE
Who Is At Risk?
Organizations, big and small, are susceptible to cyberattacks. Understanding cybersecurity essentials can be your greatest defense against potential attacks such as a data breach, ransomware, and phishing.
Fines & Penalties
If a data breach occurs and you're not PCI compliant, your business will have to pay fines and penalties ranging between $5,000 and $500,000.
Merchant Account Termination
If you're not PCI compliant, you run the risk of losing your merchant account, which means you won't be able to accept credit card payments at all - even from an alternate processor.

PCI COMPLIANCE FAQ
Effective July 2020, there is no longer a charge for PCI non-compliance. Instead, there will be a standard monthly PCI fee. If you validate PCI DSS compliance annually, you'll be billed a discounted PCI program fee.
The PCI DSS council maintains four (4) levels of PCI classification for merchants depending upon the number of transactions processed per calendar year. The levels are as follows:
Level 4 (0 - 20,000 transactions per year)
Level 3 (20,000 - 1MM transactions per year)
Level 2 (1MM - 6MM transactions per year)
Level 1 (> 6MM transactions per year)
There is a ninety (90) day grace period for all new Velocity Processing clients once the account is approved, regardless of previous processing. PCI compliance renewals are required on or before the anniversary date each year thereafter. Velocity Processing strongly encourages all clients to become PCI compliant as quickly as possible and run the network scan, if applicable.
