PCI DSS 4.0 Deadline: March 31, 2025

Are You At Risk of Losing Your Ability to Accept Credit Cards?

Every tire shop that accepts credit cards must be PCI compliant. If you're not, you could face fines up to $100,000/month, lawsuits, and even lose your merchant account.

Real Consequences of Non-Compliance:

  • $5,000 - $100,000 per month

    Fines from Visa/Mastercard until compliant

  • Merchant Account Termination

    Can't accept credit cards = business closes

  • Liable for Fraud Losses

    You pay for every stolen card used at your shop

  • Customer Lawsuits

    If their data is breached, they sue YOU

What is PCI Compliance?

In plain English - it's proof that you protect your customers' credit card information. Think of it like a health inspection, but for payment security.

💳

You Accept Credit Cards

Every time a customer swipes, taps, or enters their card number at your shop, you're handling sensitive data. That data is valuable to hackers.

🛡

PCI = Protection Rules

Visa and Mastercard created 12 security rules every business must follow. Things like strong passwords, firewalls, and not writing card numbers on paper.

📄

SAQ = Your Certification

You fill out a Self-Assessment Questionnaire (SAQ) once a year proving you follow the rules. We guide you through every question - takes about 30 minutes.
