Becoming PCI compliant

PCI DSS stands for Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard ‒ it's a global information security standard.

If you're a business that stores, sends or processes cardholder data, you'll need to make sure you comply with this standard.

All payments using our terminals, NatWest Tap to Pay or Payment Gateways are securely encrypted using PCI SSC-approved Point-to-Point Encryption (P2PE) by default. However, if we determine that you are subject to additional requirements, you will be provided with Safe Pay, our PCI DSS (Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard) compliance validation service. This service allows you to confirm that your business handles cardholder data securely, as is required by the Payment Card Industry Security Standards Council.
