Bristol Airport adopts YESpay for e-parking payment processing

Friday, July 23, 2010

Bristol Airport in the UK has switched to YESpay International’s EMBOSS payment service to manage its online, Web-based parking transactions.

With EMBOSS, Bristol Airport is now able to perform high-speed secure authorization and settlement of large-volume contact/contactless credit and debit card payments.

EMBOSS features a secure cardholder authentication payment mechanism for e-commerce transactions, known as Verified-by-Visa (VBV) and MasterCard SecureCode (MSC), collectively referred to as 3D Secure. This is effectively equivalent to an online version of Chip and PIN, says YESpay.

Additionally, the service is fully pre-accredited by Barclaycard and other major UK acquirers and is also certified to Payment Card Industry Data Security Standards Level 1, according to YESpay. [end]
