Data security has become a primary consideration for every business that accepts credit and debit cards for the payment of goods and/or services.

37 Guide to Safeguarding Card Transactions Your secure, easy-to-use, always available, online resource for account information. Introduction It is important that your business minimises fraud risk, therefore; training and on-going education efforts are vital to ensure that your employees understand and continue to follow appropriate card acceptance and data security procedures for all transactions. 1. It is important to thoroughly check the card details presented to you to help guard against card fraud. 2. It is important that you only accept and process cards that have been authorised by the cardholder s issuing bank. If you fail to comply with any verbal or written instructions from your bank, your submission may be rejected and individual transactions may be charged back to your business. If your business is unfortunate and is targeted by fraudulent activity, your account may suffer a financial loss. Ultimately your agreement may be terminated if it is deemed that you did not comply with correct practice. Remember, authorisation does not guarantee payment it does not prove that the legitimate cardholder is presenting the card details. BE SAFE, BE VIGILANT! Section 3 37

38 Card Acceptance There are two main categories of card acceptance: Card Present Transactions: Where the cardholder presents their card at the point of sale for payment. You are required to take all reasonable steps in order to ensure that the card, the cardholder, and the transaction are legitimate. A Chip and PIN verified sale is the safest method of accepting payment in a card present environment. If the card is not Chip and PIN enabled then it is acceptable to swipe the card through the terminal and obtain a signature, making sure the signature on the back of the card matches that on the receipt. There is an option to fall back to signature on a Chip Card (if there is an issue with the chip), however; by bypassing Chip and PIN, you may open yourself up to chargeback liability, so this should be implemented sparingly and only in situations when you know the customer. If a card is swiped, please ensure that the card number on the printed receipt matches the number on the card, which may be embossed. Card Not Present Transactions: Where the card or cardholder is not present when the transaction is being completed. Card Not Present transactions represent the highest risk in payment processing; validation can be tricky and in all cases of chargebacks your business is 100% liable. The onus therefore is always on you/your staff to ensure that the transaction is genuine and the customers are who they claim to be. Section 3 38

39 There are two main types of card not present processing: Mail Order/Telephone Orders (MO/TO) This is the riskiest area of card not present processing as there is virtually no way of 100% validating that the customers are who they claim to be. The best way to explain the pitfalls of MO/TO is as follows: if a newly issued card has been intercepted in the post by a fraudster, they will have full Card Number & CVV2 number as well as the registered name and address. This information is sufficient to get past most security checks available. The sale appears genuine, but is fraudulent, and the genuine cardholder is entitled to their money back with your business footing the bill. While we would still advocate completing AVS (UK only) and CVV2 checks as well as ensuring the items are being delivered to the cardholders registered address, the risk is significant and orders should be properly assessed before proceeding. MO/TO transactions should be taken in the knowledge that the sale cannot be validated easily and that ultimately the liability lies with your business. MO/TO Processing Tips 1. Be vigilant with orders, is there something strange about what the customer is asking for? Fraudsters are looking to maximise profit from a stolen card so are less likely to care about price or availability. 2. Question the contents of an order, does the quantity of items appear excessive for one person? 3. With international orders, question whether the product they are ordering may be available cheaper to the customer in the country they live. Customers always look for the best price, and with international shipping, is it likely the product can be found in their own country. 4. Be very wary of customers who say they will send their own courier to collect goods. 5. Never take additional funds off a card to wire money to an account at the request of the cardholder. 6. If an order seems too good to be true it usually is, look past the potential profit and analyse the situation properly. 7. Be wary should a customer provide you with several card numbers at once.
