Within 90 days, requirements established by the five major credit card networks will affect many businesses’ ability to accept credit cards. Referred to as the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standards (PCI-DSS) they impose new requirements for merchants to follow, and may apply to your customers.

Sage has created a PCI-DSS Resource Center to help.

There is good news: Sage MAS 90 and 200 v4.30.0.18 and 4.40.0.1 are in the process of being certified as compliant with PA-DSS and Sage Payments Solutions is a Level 1 service credit card processing service provider that is in compliance with PCI-DSS.
