What is PCI Compliance?

If you are accepting credit card payments on your site then you must adhere to PCI Security Council Standards. In order to prevent fraudulent use of credit card information, PCI DSS or Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard has laid down certain rules that every merchant irrespective of the size and number of transactions is required to comply with.

Some of the major payment card brands including Visa, MasterCard, American Express, Discover and JCB allow you to process payments through your website only when you are PCI compliant. This also applies to debit cards, prepaid cards and gift cards.
