Common Questions
What is PCI compliance?
Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard—rules for handling card data. Using a PCI-compliant POS (all major ones are) handles most requirements. Don't store card numbers yourself.
How do I reduce chargebacks?
Use EMV chip readers (liability shifts to issuer), get signatures for large amounts, keep good records, and respond quickly to disputes with documentation.
