PCI compliance is not optional — the fines are real
PCI DSS 4.0 became mandatory in March 2025. Non-compliant merchants face fines of $5,000 to $100,000 per month. We help restaurants, hotels, airports, and retail businesses close compliance gaps before they become financial liabilities.

Frequently asked questions
Is PCI DSS 4.0 mandatory for restaurants?
Yes. Any business that stores, processes, or transmits credit card data must comply as of March 31, 2025.
What are the fines for non-compliance?
Fines range from $5,000 to $100,000 per month, escalating over time. Add elevated interchange fees and potential loss of processing privileges.
How does P2PE reduce my PCI scope?
Point-to-point encryption encrypts card data at the terminal before it enters your network, dramatically reducing audit scope and cost.
How long does a compliance assessment take?
A typical gap analysis takes 1-2 weeks. Remediation depends on findings — terminal upgrades in days, network segmentation in 4-8 weeks.
