Make your path to PCI, PA-DSS compliancy achievable and maintainable with FocalPoint’s integrated credit card processing . Visum offers two credit card gateway options to help you choose the solution that best fits your needs.
With any of Visum's credit card gateway solution, PCI, PA-DSS compliancy at your company will still be necessary, but because no credit card electronic data will be stored at your location, the path to your PCI, PA-DSS compliancy should be much less complicated.
One of the biggest advantages to FocalPoint integrated credit card processing is the ability to store tokens. Similar to storing credit cards, you can use tokens to charge a customers credit card without the card being present. This functionality can be very helpful for times when your customer asks you to "use the same card they used last time", or when you need to bill the customer additional charges for fuel, damages, etc.
There is a one-time FocalPoint integration fee of $1500.00 for the first location, and $750.00 for additional locations. For current customers that are already using one of these integration options, any integration fees you paid previously would be deducted from current integration fees you will be billed for if you choose to switch from one option to another.
With any of these options, you must establish a relationship with the gateway (Heartland or CardConnect) by contacting them directly, to discuss their rates and fees.
The following options for processing credit card transactions directly from FocalPoint are as follows:
If you choose to work with CardConnect, CardConnect would be serving as both the credit card processor and the gateway.
You will not be limited to the number of terminals that can process credit cards. Ingenico credit card devices must be obtained directly from CardConnect.
If you would like to discuss this option directly with CardConnect, please contact CardConect Business Consultant Brian Block:

You may always choose a non-integrated solution with whichever credit card processor you choose to use. Typical examples of “Non Integrated Solutions” include stand-alone credit card machines and possibly some other online services that you are using by choice, and are not integrated with FocalPoint.
