The two companies have put encryption, tokenisation, device management and processing behind a single enterprise card-present offering, starting on selected Ingenico Lane terminals.
What changed
Enterprise merchants can now buy in-person acceptance as one package rather than assembling it. Bluefin supplies PCI-validated point-to-point encryption, decryption services, a certified payment application and its P2PE Manager device tool; Visa Acceptance Solutions supplies processing, tokenisation and global payment services. The launch covers certain certified Ingenico Lane devices, with the stated intent to widen to further device ecosystems. Distribution runs through Visa Acceptance Solutions and Visa partner channels, aimed at retail, hospitality, petroleum, healthcare and higher education.
What merchants must do
Enterprises running in-person estates should check whether validated P2PE would take card data out of scope for their own systems and reduce PCI DSS assessment burden, and confirm their terminal fleet is on the certified device list before assuming they are covered.
