Paymaster has received a certificate from PCI DSS

According to the recent press release “Paymaster”, web-based payment software of German payment service provider easycash GmbH has been certified by the leading European Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS). Owing to this certificate the customers can be sure that they will get the top security in handling credit card data, as this certificate guarantees that the software meets all the strict requirements of the PCI Security Standards Council.

Owing to SSL communication and back-ups by means of replicated data in two data processing centers easycash can guarantee the highest security. The Paymaster system is hosted centrally. Transaction data from the relevant online shop is transferred from the customer’s server to two data processing centers, whereby easycash will ensure data back-up. All data will be stored separately in two unconnected data processing centres, as with POS payments through the easycash network. In the event of a system going down in one of the data processing centers, easycash’s customers will still be guaranteed complete access to data. Data transfer is encrypted using the leading SSL security standard (Secure Socket Layer Standard).


“With the commitment to have these high standards supervised by accredited auditors from leading international companies, easycash is setting the tone on the web and in e-commerce. The PCI DSS certification is one data security measure by which we can strengthen our position as a national and leading international service provider in the area of cashless systems,” comments Marcus W. Mosen, CEO of the easycash Holding Gmbh.

“We are very satisfied with the completely positive reaction of the market to easycash’s e-payment system Paymaster“, Mosen emphasised. “We look upon the expansion of our market share on the web as a natural development of our successful portfolio in the field of POS transactions. On the way to becoming a full-service provider for card-based payments at a national and international level, the Paymaster product has already proved to be a further milestone”.
