Visa clients must comply with the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS), a comprehensive security standard intended to help organizations proactively protect customer account data. Visa acquirers that are directly connected to VisaNet and/or who process on behalf of other Visa clients must demonstrate PCI DSS compliance to Visa every 12 months. Visa has discretion to require any acquirer or its service providers to demonstrate compliance.
Acquirers play a critical role within the global payments infrastructure and we are in a unique position to offer services, solutions and insights that contribute to your success. We work with you to expand your merchant portfolio, increase acceptance and reduce merchant attrition.
Visa DSP is made up of hardware and software point-to-point encryption (P2PE) and tokenization.
This can help reduce PCI compliance costs by protecting data in flight and at rest.

Visa acquirers are required to register all third party agents they use, or their merchants use, to ensure compliance with Visa Rules and policies regarding the use of Third Party Agents (TPA). The TPA Registration Program helps Visa and acquirers better manage TPA relationships.
Visa acquirers must perform due diligence prior to using any TPA and must ensure they have policies and procedures in place to ensure proper oversight and control of the TPA regarding their Visa program.
