ARLINGTON, Texas -- The Pinnacle Corp. and National Bankcard Services Inc. (NBS) have completed and certified the integration between the Pinnacle Palm point-of sale (POS) and NBS payment-processing host. The combined solution is now compliant with Europay, MasterCard and Visa (EMV), a global standard for credit payment cards based on chip-card technology.
Currently in live beta testing at multiple locations, Pinnacle’s Palm POS with NBS provides petroleum retailers with protection against card-present data fraud and will accept EMV chip cards for indoor transactions with EMV-approved Ingenico payment terminals.
“Development and rollout of EMV POS and payment solutions for our clients continues at a rapid pace, and we are happy to achieve this milestone with NBS,” said Denise Lewis, POS and payments product manager for Pinnacle. “For existing Palm POS clients, no new POS hardware is required; the upgrade to the POS and NBS software can even be installed remotely.”
Arlington, Texas-based Pinnacle is a supplier of technology automation solutions for retail convenience stores and fuel inventory management.
National Bankcard Services, based in Plymouth, Minn., is a provider of electronic payment solutions.
