  • Yes we do! We are now a certified Encryption Service Organization (ESO).  

    DCCS has taken security to a new level by increasing our control and further protecting customer data.  In the new dual-controlled Encryption Facility, DCCS provides various key injections on-site for all major POS equipment. And best of all, customers can enjoy this new and improved service at the same low price and with quicker turnaround time--including same-day service!  

    PIN Pads must be physically encrypted with an 'Injection Key' to take debit pin numbers and EBT cards.

    The correct injection key will be provided by your bank or processor's technical support department. Also, previously injected equipment sometimes have the injection key information on the back of the PIN Pad or terminal.

    Please tell your customer care representative what injection you require.

    For online orders, please note the injection in the 'notes' section of the check-out screen. If you have any questions please call us at 1-877-298-6939.

    We inject for the following processors, if you are unsure please call your processor for the correct injection key.

    Note: We use the words “encryption” and “Injection” interchangeably.

    We can provide encryptions for almost all processors.

    Here are the names of the main processors:

    First Data

    Global Payments

    Heartland Payments

    Mercury

    Paymentech

    Pivotal          

    Transfirst

  • A PIN (Personal Identification Number) is used to verify the identity of a customer during debit, EBT, and face-to-face EMV transactions. This protects both the merchant and the cardholder from fraudulent activity. The cardholder enters their PIN into the PIN pad or credit card terminal, and that PIN is then transmitted over the various card issuer networks, confirming the cardholders identity. For security purposes, the PIN is "encrypted" by the PIN pad or terminal before it is transmitted over the networks. Every card network uses their own encryption key--sometimes they have more than one--and that encryption key must be loaded, or "injected," into the PIN pad or terminal before it can successfully transmit PIN data and complete a PIN transaction. 

  • Yes. Please provide us with specific instructions and we would be happy to take care of it for you.

  • No, you do not need a merchant account to purchase equipment from Discount Credit Card Supply. However, please verify that the bank or credit card processor you eventually choose will be able to support the equipment you are purchasing.

  • Yes we do!

  • All refurbished terminals go through a thorough testing process before they go out the door. That is the main difference between used and refurbished.

  • You will need approval by a bank or credit card processor in order to start accepting credit cards, as well as confirmation that the bank or processor supports the device you wish to buy.

  • EMV, which stands for Europay, MasterCard, and Visa, is a global standard for inter-operation of integrated circuit cards (IC cards or"chip cards") and IC card capable point of sale (POS) terminals and automated teller machines (ATMs), for authenticating credit and debit card transactions.

    In October 2015, the liability for counterfeit credit card transactions shifted to the merchant if they do not have the ability to accept chip card payments. For more information visit this link.

  • From the world's largest corporations to small Internet stores, compliance with the PCI Data Security Standard (PCI DSS) is vital for all merchants who accept credit cards, online or offline, because nothing is more important than keeping your customer’s payment card data secure. The size of your business will determine the specific compliance requirements that must be met. Note that enforcement of merchant compliance is managed by the individual payment brands and not by the Council – the same is true for non-compliance penalties.

  • Wireless

  • Only GPRS terminals come equipped with SIM Cards.

  • GPRS and CDMA are different network platforms on which cell phone providers base their technology. In the “credit card terminal world”, typically there is only AT&T and Verizon. Verizon has based their cellular data networks on the CDMA platform, while AT&T uses GPRS. In order to get the most efficient connection on your equipment, it would be a good idea to find out which providers have the most communication towers in your area. We typically have more GPRS than CDMA in our stock.
