SmarterCommerce, a leading provider of enterprise payment processing cloud solutions, announced today that it has successfully achieved Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS) Level 1 Service Provider certification for its SmarterCommerce Payment Cloud under the latest PCI DSS v4.0 standard as part of its continuing focus on security and compliance.

PCI DSS is a global standard mandating how payment card data is stored, processed, secured, and maintained. To attain this certification, organizations must meet a comprehensive set of requirements that certify payment information is managed in a secure environment and complies with the specifications of the major credit card brands.

SmarterCommerce has achieved the most scrutinized level of compliance, demonstrating its high-security standards and commitment to data protection and customer information security. With this certification, SmarterCommerce is equipped to help organizations secure cardholder data, reducing the administrative burden for customers to maintain data security standards so they can focus on running their businesses.

Introduced in 2022, PCI DSS v4.0 is the latest and most rigorous standard which aims to provide an increasingly robust and comprehensive framework for securing payment card data, and companies who acquire this certification demonstrate their ongoing commitment to providing the highest possible security.

"As a global Level 1 Service Provider to large enterprises, data security is of paramount importance to our customers, and achieving PCI DSS v4.0 certification is another milestone for our organization as a trustworthy and reliable managed payments cloud service provider and a testament to our ongoing commitment to maintaining the highest standards of security and compliance for our customers" said Fermin Rodriguez, Managing Director of SmarterCommerce.

He added, "Our customers can trust SmarterCommerce to protect their data and provide them with a world-class, highly secure payment platform to address their global payment requirements across the North America, South America, Caribbean, European and the Asia Pacific regions."
