Provides Merchants Additional Flexibility in
Managing Payment Transactions
Discover is introducing a new option for merchants to streamline
the checkout process for all chip cards leveraging Discover, Diners
Club International and PULSE Networks. Discover Quick Chip will
reduce the time a chip card needs to remain in the point-of-sale
terminal, making the checkout process more convenient for merchants
and cardholders. Discover Quick Chip provides merchants and
acquirers with an additional option when processing chip card
payments.
Discover Quick Chip will reduce terminal certification
requirements and be compatible with the technical standards offered
by other payment networks, so merchants can seamlessly offer
cardholders a faster checkout experience across all chip cards they
accept.
“Discover is providing this new option in order to offer
merchants and cardholders a streamlined checkout experience,” said
Ellie Smith, head of the Chip Center of Excellence at Discover.
“This initiative further expands and complements Discover’s wide
range of existing programs that support chip deployment.”
Discover Quick Chip is another example of Discover’s
long-running commitment to support merchants and acquirers in the
U.S. EMV migration. The current programs range from focusing on
industry education and training to streamlined certification
initiatives, including access to multiple approved certification
service providers, acquirer self-certification and dedicated
support for Value Added Resellers.
Merchants that want to upgrade their terminals to include
Discover Quick Chip should contact their acquirer, payment
processor, or point-of-sale provider.
