Independent software providers will comply automatically with Payment Card Industry data security standards when they integrate their products with the Sage Exchange integrated payments platform, Sage North America says.
Integrating software with Sage Exchange also improves the security of those products, and it creates a seamless payments system for independent providers’ customer, Sage said in a Dec. 12 press release.
Payments processed through Sage Exchange can flow automatically into an accounting or enterprise resource planning system to help businesses receive payment more quickly andn spend less time manually entering and reconciling payment data.
"We're providing [independent software providers] of every size the ability to offer their customers an integrated payment experience, which streamlines the customer on-boarding process and eliminates manual data entry of their incoming payment transactions," Greg Hammermaster, president of McClean, Va.-based Sage Payment Solutions, said in the release.
Sage Development Partners receive a software development kit, including documentation and a testing environment. The Sage services team helps determine the best integration method for each partner, according to the release.
