TGate Announces Partnership With ID TECH

May 4, 2011 - PRLog -- TGate Payments today announced a new partnership with ID TECH, a leading manufacturer of Automated Identification (Auto ID) products and solutions. The partnership allows merchants and ISVs to combine ID TECH’s SL Secure Line products with TGate’s SecureLINK℠ to offer a complete Point-to-Point Encryption solution, enabling merchants to process transactions independent of any processor.

ID TECH’s SL Secure Line products deliver superior reading performance while encrypting sensitive data that complies with PCI-DSS requirements. The SL Secure Line products support industry proven Triple DES (TDES) encryption and use Derived Unique Key Per Transaction (DUKPT) key management. Data encryption technology is available on IDTECH’s wide range of point-of-sale financial transaction products including their growing line of mobile readers. Compatibility with SecureLINK to decode encrypted data significantly enhances ID TECH’s SL Secure Line products for true end-to-end encryption. TGate’s SecureLINK solution is designed to offer the most cost effective and efficient secure services for protecting cardholder data. SecureLINK is an open platform that works with a growing list of manufacturers in decryption services for encrypted card data supporting ID TECH’s SL Secure Line products. In addition to SecureLINK, merchants and ISVs can leverage TGate’s PathwayLINK℠ to process their secure transactions to any major processor without limitations.

“We’re very excited about the synergies that our partnership with ID TECH brings to both companies,” explains TGate’s President Tracy Metzger. “This allows them to provide a robust, completely secure hardware/software solution to a growing marketplace.”

“We are pleased to have the opportunity to partner with TGate and believe that the combination of their state-of-the-art gateway technology and ID TECH’s SL Secure Line products will provide our customers with the best secure payment solution available,” said Terry Conant, executive vice president of ID TECH.
