PCI DSS Self-Assessments

All merchants should complete the designated self-assessment for their merchant.  Completion of the appropriate self-assessment ensures that you fully understand your processes and operations, that you are educated and are held accountable concerning PCI policy and procedures, and that you recognize and remediate any security flaws.

Category 2 - Merchant only processes payments using a dial up (copper phone line or cellular) terminal.

Category 3 - Merchant only processes payments using an IP terminal.

Category 4 - Merchant only processes payments using a web-based (virtual terminal), and does not store cardholder data electronically.

Category 5 - Merchant only processes payments using systems connected to the internet and NO electronic cardholder data storage.

Category 6 - Merchant stores electronic cardholder data.

Category P2PE - Merchants who only process payments using hardware payment terminals included in a validated and PCI SSC-listed PCI point-to-point encryption (P2PE) solution.

Category A-EP - Merchants who are e-commerce merchants who are not using URL redirection or iFrame, but instead use Direct post or JavaScript to interact with the gateway.  

Category SPoC - Merchants who use software-based PIN entry on COTS (SPoC) solutions.
