PRINCETON JUNCTION, N.J., April 03, 2018 -- In order to continually advance the quality of chip card acceptance and payment processing in the U.S., the U.S. Payments Forum has introduced new tools for collecting transaction and error data. The new tools are practical resources designed to assist merchants and issuers in gathering sufficient information and enabling consistent communications with processing partners.
Download the Merchant and Issuer Error Data Collection Forms at http://www.uspaymentsforum.org/merchant-and-issuer-error-data-collection-forms/.
“Many merchants and issuers today are continuing to fine-tune their implementations of chip. The U.S. Payments Forum is working to streamline processes and address issues by providing actionable guidance and resources,” said Randy Vanderhoof, director of the U.S. Payments Forum. “These new tools will assist issuers, issuer processors, merchants, acquirers and acquiring processors by guiding them to gather sufficient information in consistent ways.”
The forms:
- Can be used to identify data needed for troubleshooting and to communicate the data among payment processing partners
- Are provided as Microsoft Word documents to allow stakeholders to use and edit the forms to best meet their needs
Other U.S. chip technology implementation and education resources created by the Forum can be found at www.emv-connection.com.
Members of the merchant and issuing communities, as well as other stakeholders across the payments industry that are interested in having a more active voice in the U.S. implementation of chip technology and other emerging payments technologies, are encouraged to participate in the U.S. Payments Forum. Membership details are available at http://www.uspaymentsforum.org/membership/membership-benefits/.
