Compliance for online merchants: meet your acquirer and regulatory requirements

Acquiring banks and card schemes increasingly require online merchants to have written policies and active procedures in place. European and UK regulation adds further obligations. For most merchants, compliance is not the core business — it is a condition for operating.
