PCI COMPLIANCE

Pinnacle is committed to providing PCI compliant products and solutions. The spirit of PCI compliance is consistent with our desire to protect and secure your customers’ sensitive credit card data. Palm POS has been adding security features for years and has recently adopted all the necessary enhancement to exceed the rigid security requirements of PCI. Pinnacle will continue to make sure future versions of Palm POS maintain compliance. When you install Palm POS you can be assured you are installing a point-of-sale system that meets PCI security requirements and handles your customers credit card information securely.

Security Standard Council Validated Payment Systems List

The SSC now maintains an approved list of validated Payment Application systems, which includes POS systems. All products and versions listed here have been successfully audited by an authorized QSA and were found to be in compliance with PCI regulations. The listed products must be reviewed annually to maintain this approved status. Pinnacle Palm is named on this list.

The card brands (Visa, MC, AMEX, Discover, JCB) may continue to publish their own approved lists however their compliance programs, such as Visa’s PABP, have been superseded by the SSC’s PA-DSS audit programs. The SSC list is the official list of record and is now the only reliable reference to determine if a POS system is PCI validated and compliant.
