Cybersecurity
Protect payment data at every step of the transaction
Handling payment data comes with strict security requirements and significant risk. Businesses must ensure that sensitive card information is protected throughout the transaction lifecycle, while also managing payment security and compliance requirements.
Tender Retail uses end-to-end encryption (E2EE) to secure payment data from the moment it is captured on the device, ensuring that sensitive information is never exposed within your systems or ours.

Secure
End-to-end encryption from device to processor
Protected
Minimize the potential impact of cyber attacks by preventing exposure of sensitive data
Reduced Scope
Minimize PCI compliance requirements and associated costs
Trusted
Built on proven payment security practices
Security built into the payment flow
Payment security should not rely on additional layers or afterthought solutions. It must be embedded directly into how transactions are processed.

Tender Retail ensures that cardholder data is encrypted at the point of interaction and remains protected throughout the transaction. Neither your systems nor our platform store or access sensitive card data, significantly reducing risk and simplifying compliance.
End-to-end encryption that protects every transaction
Sensitive payment data is encrypted at the earliest point and remains protected until it reaches the payment processor.
- Encryption applied directly at the payment device
- Data remains encrypted throughout transmission
- No exposure of cardholder data within POS or middleware
- Secure communication between devices and processing hosts
End-to-end encryption (E2EE)
Protect card data from the moment it is captured until it reaches the processor.
Tokenization support
Replace sensitive data with secure tokens for safer transaction handling.
Secure communication
Ensure encrypted data exchange across all system components.
Minimal data exposure
Limit access to sensitive information across systems and teams.
Core capabilities for payment security

Reduce your PCI scope and compliance burden
Managing PCI DSS requirements can be complex, time-consuming, and costly. Systems that store or process sensitive card data must meet strict compliance standards and undergo regular validation.

By ensuring that sensitive data is never exposed or stored within your environment, Tender Retail helps reduce PCI scope. This allows organizations to simplify compliance efforts while maintaining strong security standards.
Protect data while maintaining operational resilience
Minimize exposure to sensitive payment data
Reducing risk starts with limiting access to sensitive data. Tender Retail does not store full cardholder data or provide visibility into sensitive payment information, helping minimize exposure and reduce the risk of data breaches within your environment.
This approach also simplifies your overall security architecture by removing unnecessary points of vulnerability.
Maintain operations in unpredictable conditions
Payment environments must remain dependable even under less predictable conditions. From localized connectivity issues to broader infrastructure disruptions, systems need to continue operating without relying on immediate intervention.

Tender Retail supports ongoing transaction processing, monitoring, and recovery across distributed environments, helping maintain stability and continuity even when external systems or networks are unavailable.

faq
What is end-to-end encryption (E2EE)?
E2EE ensures that payment data is encrypted at the point of capture and remains protected until it reaches the payment processor.
How does this impact PCI compliance?
By reducing exposure to sensitive data, the platform helps minimize PCI scope and simplifies compliance requirements.
Is payment data visible within our systems?
No. Sensitive payment data remains encrypted and is not visible within POS systems or middleware.
Is this compatible with existing payment devices?
Yes. E2EE works with supported payment devices and integrates into existing environments.
