Highly secure data vault in the cloud and tokenized communication means no
longer having to manage customer credit data and security headaches in house

PCI Data Vault with Tokenization


IBM Payments Gateway stores all payment information in a PCI
vault where the information is encrypted, protected by strict
access controls, and purged when no longer needed. The vault
includes a tokenization mechanism that works in all interface
modules, tools, feeds and reports. This enables centralization
and outsourcing the storage of all payment information to the
data vault.

Counter Fraud Prevention


• Address Verification Service (AVS) check
• Card Verification Code (CVC) check
• Card issuer and country check
• 3D secure cardholder authentication
• Dynamic security checks

(A/R) records

Lower Settlement Costs


Automated reconciliation of funds settlement combined with a
managed service, which handles exceptions and ensures proper
settlement on every transaction.
