This information has been really useful to me, as I wasn’t sure where to start. I am now awaiting Actinic Payments application to go through, as this seems the best option for me and my website. After weighing it up, the cost is very reasonable too.

Comment on Ecommerce Hosting, website security and PCI Compliance by teclan

Alan, we are glad you agree with the key point of this article; the unfair treatment of SME’s from the banking sector in regards to PCI compliance.
In this article we aimed to be explicit as possible with the “PCI compliance sense check” which clearly highlights links to resources which further clarifies the responsibilities for both online transactions AND MOTO transactions. We highlighted an issue which we had direct experience of with several of our customers. We want people to be aware of the issues surrounding PCI compliance, to know the facts and also be aware of the negative marketing that surrounds security scanning services.

I thank you for your comment. We have taken this on board and subsequently amended the article slightly to further emphasise that security scans may be required in some situations, specifically MOTO transactions.

While I agree that the banks are unfairly burdening SMEs, and the whole process is somewhat of a farce, if you are going to give advice then I think you should be very precise, as one of my clients has incorrectly cancelled testing based on this.

The use of PCI compliant PSPs does negate the requirement UNLESS you also use them for mail/ telephone order transaction (MOTO) via an online virtual terminal. This does not require a website scan, but does require a quarterly scan of any internet connection creating online virtual terminal transactions.
