PCI, Credit Card Security, and SpeedLine POS

Q3. 

Do I need to use a PABP / PA-DSS compliant point of sale system?

Yes.

Effective October 2008, banks and credit card processors may no longer board merchants that use software that cannot be validated as PABP or PA-DSS compliant.

As of July 2010, merchants (including restaurant operators) are required to use only Visa PABP or PCI PA-DSS validated point of sale and payment applications.

Some financial institutions are already enforcing the requirement for an annual PCI security self-assessment and quarterly network scans, and levying fines for non-compliance. If your POS system is non-compliant after the July 2010 deadline, you will automatically fail your PCI assessment, and could lose the ability to accept credit cards.
