How does PCI compliance work with Issuing?
PCI DSS and Adyen Issuing
The scope for PCI compliance depends on your use case—the type of cards you'll issue and how the cards will be used. To know whether PCI compliance requirements apply to your use case, reach out to your Adyen contact.
PCI DSS compliance
The Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS) helps you protect cardholder details, reduce fraud, and minimize the chances of a data breach resulting from malicious attacks. Complying with the requirements helps you maintain your customer’s trust.
Every year, every business must make sure they comply with PCI DSS by completing one of the official PCI DSS validation documents. There are significant penalties and costs for businesses that don’t comply with the requirements.
