SAN FRANCISCO, June 28, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Systum, a provider of a cloud-based, digital operating platform for small to medium-sized businesses (SMBs), today announced its partnership with CardConnect, a First Data Company, to deliver secure payment acceptance and improve business efficiencies through a seamless, integrated offering designed specifically for SMBs.
Through this strategic partnership, Systum has enhanced their existing digital operating platform with Bolt P2PE, CardConnect’s solution for simplified payment device integration. This combined offering provides secure payment acceptance and data breach protection for customers through PCI-Validated Point-to-Point Encryption (P2PE) and tokenization, along with the ability to simplify efforts to comply with Payment Card Industry Data Security Standards (PCI DSS) and reduce administrative time spent on Self-Assessment Questionnaires (SAQs). The integration helps produce a seamless and secure customer experience for Systum customers.
“SMBs are responsible not only for daily operations, but for cultivating a loyal customer base, fending off the competition, as well as keeping pace with rapidly changing customer behaviors and expectations when it comes to online payments,” said Dean Mansfield, CEO of Systum. “Systum’s integration with CardConnect will help provide secure, simplified, global payment capabilities to our SMB customers, while protecting their customers’ data, which is the essential foundation to building loyalty.”
“We are pleased to be partnering with Systum to combine the power of their digital operating platform for SMBs with our advanced payment solutions to securely process and manage their transactions,” said Rob Nathan, Executive Vice President of CardConnect. “Together, we can provide Systum’s customers with the most secure and efficient payments platform on the market today.”
