End-to-End Encryption
Global Payments Integrated’s proprietary encryption is designed to render cardholder data unreadable, encrypted at the device. Merchants are unable to view card numbers after the swipe or hand-key.
Token Vault/Tokenization
Cardholder data is replaced by digital “tokens” based on this technology. Sensitive data is stored in the secure Global Payments Integrated vault rather than in the merchant environment.
EMV®
EMV technology protects card issuers, merchants and consumers from losses due to the use of counterfeit and stolen payment cards at the point-of-sale. EMV (“smart cards”) are embedded with a chip that interacts with a merchant’s point-of-sale device, ensuring the card is authentic and belongs to the user.
Out of PA-DSS Scope
Payment applications are rendered out-of-scope with EdgeShield, eliminating cumbersome PCI validation requirements.
Breach Reimbursement for Developers
Global Payments Integrated will cover up to $150,000 in legal costs associated with a developer’s defense against a customer in the unlikely case of a card data breach while using EdgeShield.
QIR™ ASSIST
For developers who wish to pursue QIR certification, Global Payments Integrated offers QIR ASSIST, a support program to get your staff certified and ensure you have access to payments security best practices.
PCI ASSURE® for Merchants
EdgeShield includes the PCI ASSURE program to help your customers understand and simplify PCI compliance with online access to self-assessment questionnaires, network scans, a breach reimbursement program, and custom security profiles generated from the business’ processing activity. PCI ASSURE delivers a simplified path to compliance, eliminating required vulnerability scans and reducing the required SAQ questions to 24. We understand PCI complexity, so you don’t have to.
Hosted Payment Form (through EdgeExpress)
Our platform-agnostic, EMV-ready Hosted Payment Form, provided through the EdgeExpress Card-Not-Present API, delivers a secure and simple integration for installed or cloud-based software. Global Payments Integrated Hosted Payment Form supports:

Platform Security Features
