BROOKFIELD, WI (May 31, 2017) — Fiserv, Inc. (NASDAQ: FISV), a leading global provider of financial services technology solutions, announced today the latest version of POSH™ from Fiserv, a robust and flexible switch solution for payment transactions, has achieved the highest level of PCI Payment Application Data Security Standard (PA-DSS) certification (version 3.2.) Certified for the next five years, POSH is one of few payment gateway/switch solutions to meet this standard globally.
The PA-DSS program is comprised of a stringent set of technical and operational qualifications for software vendors with the overall objective of safeguarding customer data. By choosing a PA-DSS certified application such as POSH, payment providers can help ensure the security of their customer’s data, support the overall PCI-compliance for their organization and provide confidence for consumers to make secure payments.
”Keeping money and information safe is a fundamental promise financial providers make to their customers.

Supporting multiple global currencies, the solution helps ensure a transaction is delivered to the issuer or network with full compliance, meeting all PCI security standards.
The latest version of POSH supports EMV™ chip card issuing and acquiring and supports new payment technologies, such as mobile payments (mPOS). In addition, POSH has adaptable integration capabilities that permit clients to offer a range of multichannel transactions to consumers.
Fiserv offers high availability options to help ensure constant, real-time authorization.
