TNS’ Global Expertise Supporting EMV Migrations Will Benefit Customers and Partners

Citing advantages that it will bring in payment security, international interoperability and the enablement of mobile payments, Visa announced last week that it is taking steps to accelerate the migration to EMV in the United States. Many requirements, including the need for merchant acquirers to be able to accept EMV transactions no later than April, 2013, have industry players scrambling to define and execute plans that will keep them in compliance with Visa guidelines.
