Cardknox Unveils "EMV In 24 Hours" Solution For Developers

LAKEWOOD, N. J., September 16, 2015 – Cardknox, Inc., a leading EMV gateway and payments provider announced today its Rapid EMV solution for Point of Sale (POS) systems, enabling POS developers to upgrade their systems to EMV within 24 hours.

"Many POS developers are confused by all the EMV options." said Bruce Zlotowitz, Cardknox's CMO. "With the October 1^st liability shift deadline rapidly approaching, our solution provides a much needed solution for the many POS developers that still do not have an EMV plan. The Cardknox “EMV in 24 hours” solution offers developers a pre-certified EMV solution in 24 hours or less.”

Cardknox is a pioneer of developer-friendly EMV solutions that enables POS systems providers to ready their systems for EMV, eliminating lengthy certification. With EMV confusion at an all-time high, Cardknox offers a simple solution to what is otherwise a complex problem.

"Our rapid EMV solution includes a sandbox testing account, SDK and API, documentation and a complimentary terminal for testing," Zlotowitz added. "The “EMV in 24 hours” program can be implemented in nearly every POS environment with only a few lines of code."

Delivering best of class functionality and out of scope solutions, Cardknox is unique in offering a choice of integrated payment processing, with the industry’s highest residuals, or a gateway-only option available that is processor agnostic, for merchants who want to use their existing credit card processor.

Avi Diena, Technology Partner Manager of Cardknox, said, "Our flexibility in offering integrated payments with high residuals or gateway-only has become a key benefit for our partners. A single integration enables POS dealers to service all of their clients without the need for multiple solutions. It has taken the confusion out of EMV integration for POS systems and cut it down to one bite-sized solution."

In addition to their SDK for custom integration with most POS systems, Cardknox also offers a popular solution for browser-based POS systems, plus plugins for many popular POS solutions, such as Intuit's QuickBooks POS and Microsoft's Dynamics Retail Management System (RMS), enabling dealers and resellers of those platforms to quickly implement EMV solutions for their merchants, while getting high residuals and unlimited support.
