France Telecom has become the latest national carrier to set a date for shutdown of their X.25 network services, joining a growing list of Telcos seeking to force merchants and payment providers onto IP services.

Similarly in 2009, Australia’s national carrier Telstra announced its intention to shutdown its X.25 network services.

Although unimportant to the national carriers, X.25 is still used for a substantial amount of payment transactions and remains a critical protocol for many merchants, banks and processors.

TNS has been at the forefront of IP in payments for nearly 10 years, with a string of IP ‘firsts’ against our name, but we also recognize how important X.25 is to our customers in the payments industry. TNS will continue to welcome and support customers that want to use X.25, assisting them in their migration to IP at a time and pace that meets their business and financial needs.
