PCI Compliance

@dnasplatt1  There's a few ifs, ands, and buts about it, but this question can be summarized as:

Do any of your devices have access to your merchant account login or, in any other way, access to customer's sensitive financial information?

If yes, you need to be PCI compliant.

If no, you do not.

That being said, there is a more practical answer. I can't speak to whether QBO does it, but I have seen many merchant service providers slip in a PCI Non-Compliance fee without the business owners realizing it. Seems to average $60 to $70 per month.

If you see that anywhere in your charges, I'd say it'd be easiest to simply become PCI compliant. It's not a particularly difficult thing to do, and it doesn't have to be through QB's SecurityMetrics partner.

It depends on whether you have to be PCI compliant or not, @dnasplatt1. Allow me to provide some insights into how payment processing works.

I agree with FishingForAnswers. You must be PCI compliant if you have access to customers' sensitive financial information. Otherwise, there is no need to take any action.

Utilizing QuickBooks Payments services does not automatically ensure PCI compliance. As a merchant accepting card payments, you must uphold payment security throughout your local environment. This includes all applications and systems on your network.
