Bluefin and Etix Announce Partnership for PCI-Validated Point-to-Point Encryption (P2PE) and Payment Processing
Tuesday, September 20, 2022
The security and scope reduction of Bluefin's PCI-validated P2PE solution is now available through Etix
ATLANTA and MORRISVILLE, N.C., Aug. 30, 2022 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Bluefin, the recognized integrated payments leader in encryption and tokenization technologies to protect payments and sensitive data, has announced a new partnership with Etix that will provide their ticketing clients integrated payment processing capabilities backed by PCI-validated point-to-point encryption (P2PE).
Etix is an international web-based ticketing service provider for the entertainment, travel and sports industries, and operates in 40 countries on four continents. Etix provides secure access control ticketing infrastructure solutions, ticket marketing services, and robust Ecommerce fulfillment capabilities. Etix clients include venues, arenas, festivals, fairs, performing arts
centers, and multi-use facilities.
Bluefin specializes in PCI-validated P2PE solutions that secure credit and debit card transactions by encrypting all data within a PCI-approved point-of-entry device, preventing clear-text cardholder data from being available in the device or the merchant's system where it could be exposed to malware. Data decryption is only done offsite in a Bluefin hardware security module (HSM).
"Etix is dedicated to providing our clients the highest level of security and convenience, which made Bluefin a perfect partner for our company," said Aaron Bare, Chief Marketing Officer, Etix. "Not only does the partnership provide the reduced PCI scope and security of validated P2PE, but also the benefits of integrated payments through the Etix platform."
Bluefin's PayConex(TM) platform provides integrated and stand-alone face-to-face, mobile, unattended, MOTO and Ecommerce payment processing, backed by PCI-validated P2PE and tokenization of PII, PHI, payment and ACH account data entered online. Additional features include 3D Secure (3DS) for Ecommerce payments, anti-fraud scoring, chargeback management, account updater and ACH verification.
"PCI-validated P2PE is the gold standard in POS payment security and has been widely embraced by box offices, stadiums, theatres and festivals," said Greg Cornwell, Chief Revenue Officer, Bluefin. "Etix's feature-rich platform serves organizations around the globe and we are very excited to bring the security of integrated P2PE payments to their clients."
