As restaurants prepare for the Oct. 1 EMV liability shift, when all financial liability for counterfeit, lost and stolen card transactions shifts to the party who is not EMV compliant, they are realizing EMV alone is not enough to protect their businesses from card data being stolen as a result of a breach.

Key Highlights/Facts

  • Heartland Secure, which combines three powerful technologies - EMV, Heartland end-to-end encryption and tokenization - is used by more than 50,575 restaurants and retailers.
  • Heartland Secure provides restaurants with the highest level of protection for card-present EMV and magnetic stripe transactions.
  • Although EMV compliance is not a government or card brand mandate, it is up to the restaurant to implement EMV-compliant terminals. Restaurateurs that decide to implement EMV technology will expose their business to fewer disputes over counterfeit, lost and stolen fraud while boosting consumer confidence.
  • The Heartland Secure out-of-scope solution takes the POS system completely out of the payment authorization process and PA-DSS scope, resulting in no cardholder data ever sent to the POS.
  • POS companies, such as Digital Dining, that interface with Heartland's out-of-scope solution do not need to code to certify for EMV, which gets them to market faster and at significantly lower costs.
