Paytia and CyberSource Announce Mutual Referral Partnership

We've agreed a mutual referral partnership with CyberSource, a Visa solution and one of the world's largest payment management platforms. It brings CyberSource's global gateway together with our secure telephone payment technology, so merchants can cover both online and phone channels.

CyberSource will refer merchants to us for secure MOTO (Mail Order / Telephone Order) payments. We'll refer merchants to CyberSource for gateway, fraud management and commerce solutions.

Complementary Payment Solutions

CyberSource provides payment gateway services, fraud monitoring, tokenisation and compliance services to merchants worldwide. As a Visa solution, it processes billions of transactions a year across multiple channels.

Our DTMF masking technology secures the phone channel. That's where a lot of businesses still struggle with PCI DSS compliance. Put the two together and a merchant has one approach to payment security across every channel.

"Partnering with CyberSource, a Visa solution, is a significant milestone for Paytia," said Curtis Nash, CEO of Paytia. "Many businesses have strong online payment infrastructure but still struggle with securing phone payments. This partnership means merchants can access the right solutions for both channels through a single referral relationship."

Reducing Compliance Complexity

Taking payments across several channels makes PCI DSS compliance complicated and expensive. This partnership secures both the online and the telephone channel to the same standard.

CyberSource's gateway handles online transactions, with fraud management and tokenisation built in. Our platform means phone payments are processed without card data ever reaching the contact centre. Between them, a merchant's PCI scope drops sharply.

Payment Security Standards

Both companies hold the highest payment security certifications. CyberSource runs on Visa's global infrastructure, with proven processing and fraud prevention. We're certified as a PCI DSS Level 1 Service Provider, so telephone payment data is handled with the same rigour as an online transaction.

Merchants can be confident their payment data is protected wherever the customer pays — online, over the phone, or through an automated IVR system.
