PCI COMPLIANCE

Since 1994, Shift4 Corporation has been a leading developer of enterprise payment software solutions that help merchants of all sizes turn their credit, debit, check, and gift card transactions into dollars in the bank, quickly, accurately, and securely.

In 2008, Shift4 developed a new approach to securing electronic transactions that is based on the principle of Card Information Replacement Technology (CIRTsm).

CIRT is one way Shift4 is helping merchants become truly secure and simplify PCI compliance. "They can't steal what you don't have!"
