PC Charge has now been unsupported for over 2 years, and yet certain companies have still been using PC Charge to process cards through their accounting software. On April 6th, 2015, Verifone announced they will no longer support their credit card application PC Charge.

Newer versions of ERPs and payment integrations have better security features and protocols (Hint: APS!) that are PCI Compliant.

PC Charge, a server-based credit card processing middleware, is installed on a business’ local server to process credit card and store information on-site. Even though PC Charge has stopped working for most merchants, several companies have found a way to piece their systems together to keep it running. This, however, will likely come to an end in 2018.

Whether you need the ability to process payments in the field, at a tradeshow, or on the sales floor, with American Payment Solutions mobile credit card processing solutions, you can accept payments anywhere using your Android and iOS devices.

If you are accepting credit cards in a retail environment only, you are probably very familiar with credit card terminals or point of sale systems. If you are accepting credit card payments in a non-retail environment (over the phone primarily), you can either process transactions through your physical credit card terminal, or through an online virtual terminal. If you want additional features, like saving credit cards on file (using tokenization, of course), sending emailed transaction receipts, or qualifying for Level 2 and Level 3 interchange rates on business-to-business or business-to-government transactions, a virtual terminal is the way to go.

APS also allows this feature through a single database, using a single gateway, which simplifies this process regardless of your native currency.
