EMV Certification

EMV Certification is a process that ensures payment card systems—like chip-based credit and debit cards and the point-of-sale devices that process them—meet strict security standards set by EMVCo, the global consortium. This certification confirms that the hardware and software correctly handle secure transactions, protect cardholder data, and prevent fraud. Achieving EMV Certification is essential for financial institutions and businesses to ensure trust, interoperability, and compliance with international security protocols for card payments.
