We take the security of your information very seriously, our payment processor's security infrastructure employs multiple layers of protection, starting with Level 1 PCI DSS compliance—the highest security standard for payment processing. This foundation is further strengthened by sophisticated systems and continuous monitoring to ensure data integrity and transaction security.
Core Security Standards and Certifications
| Standard | Description |
| Level 1 PCI DSS Compliance | Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS), a set of global standards established in 2004 by five major credit card companies. This compliance helps businesses and consumers avoid payment fraud and data compromise, ensuring security and consistency worldwide. |
| SOC 2 Type II and SOC 3 Certifications | The platform maintains these certifications, which prove its steadfast dedication to rigorous, internationally recognized security standards. |
Data Protection Methods
Utilizes advanced methods to protect sensitive data both in transit and at rest:
Encryption
Security framework has sophisticated encryption methods, using the Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) to protect sensitive data during transmission and storage. Encryption converts data (such as credit card numbers and bank account information) into a coded or scrambled format. Like storing your data in a locked safe, encryption means no one can access the contents inside without the correct combination or key. It employs 128-bit encryption protocols and protocols like Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) and Transport Layer Security (TLS) to secure communications.
Tokenization
Tokenization adds an extra layer of security to payments by replacing sensitive payment information with a unique, meaningless set of characters known as a token. The token serves as a reference to the original data, which is securely stored in a third-party “token vault.”
Transaction and User Security
Fraud Detection and Monitoring
The platform's built-in fraud detection tools analyze every transaction to identify potential risks. Furthermore, up-to-the-minute monitoring systems are in place to identify and neutralize threats instantly.
Authentication
Much like a bouncer checking an ID, payment authentication verifies the identity of users before authorizing a transaction. This additional layer of security is designed to prevent fraud or unauthorized transactions.
Secure Payment Gateways
A secure payment gateway acts as an intermediary between the customer, business, and financial institutions involved in a transaction. These gateways provide a secure channel for sharing payment information between parties, which is crucial to protecting customer data against fraud or theft.
