Canadian Retail Solutions adopt YESpay payment service

Tuesday, August 17, 2010

Canadian Retail Solutions (CRS) and YESpay International have partnered to deliver EMV chip and PIN managed card payment service to Canadian customers. YESpay’s EMBOSS is an EMV chip and PIN accredited and PCI-DSS Level 1 certified managed payment service.

Because EMBOSS payment gateway for EMV card processing is pre-accredited with Chase Payment and First Data Merchant Services and PCI-DSS Level 1 compliant, Canadian Retail Solutions Retail Pro software is then already integrated with EasyV-Retail, a “ready to use” product available to merchants in a matter of days. The software is specifically designed for multi-store operations.


CRS chose to partner with YESpay because their solution met the specific needs of the Canadian retail environment. EMBOSS is advertised as reducing business and technical issues of outsourcing payment services and assists merchants avoid lengthy timescales and high costs of EMV certification and PCI compliance of their retail environments both small and large. As a fully scalable solution, EMBOSS can address the needs of chains with 100+ of stores. [end]

This feature intends to reduce fraud by eliminating the possibility of unauthorized employees using a manager ID or swipe card to access the POS and approve overrides.
