Online Credit Verification System
· The OCV Server is designed to allow unattended processing of credit card transactions for multiple merchants using a single server and bank dial-up, argent leased line or argent direct interface via the standard EFTPOS network.
· The credit card verification requests can originate from customer workstations or from an automated application. A telemarketing operation could use the OCV Server to accept authorisation requests from Windows 95 up to Windows XP phone operator workstations while an Internet Service Provider (ISP) could use the product to validate credit card details originating from an Internet Web Site.
· A bank approved encryption device is used to provide reliable transaction recovery and maintain security of bank terminal master keys used to generate Message Authentication Codes (MACs) for AS2805 transactions. A standard PC running Windows 95 up to Windows XP is used to host the server software and the bank communications interface.
· The OCV server is a hardware/Software solution. The hardware consists of a security device, and a modem. The Development Suite version does not require any Hardware and can be downloaded from the Downloads section, under OCV Software.
Accreditation:
PC EFTPOS Pty Ltd provides the POS vendor with support during system integration and when integration is complete, PC EFTPOS ‘accredits’ the POS system against a test script. If the POS system passes the accreditation test then PC EFTPOS Pty Ltd will notify the Bank that the POS vendor has been accredited.
VbV accreditation is a separate process between the POS vendor and the Bank.
