Protect payment data at every step of the transaction 

Handling payment data comes with strict security requirements and significant risk. Businesses have to protect sensitive card information throughout the transaction lifecycle while managing payment security and compliance requirements.

Tender Retail uses end-to-end encryption (E2EE) to secure payment data from the moment it is captured on the device, so sensitive information is not exposed within your systems or ours.

Scope reduced

Fewer PCI compliance requirements and lower costs

Practices proven

Built on proven payment security practices

Security built into the payment flow 

Payment security belongs inside the transaction itself, embedded directly into how transactions are processed rather than added as a separate layer.

Tender Retail encrypts cardholder data at the point of interaction, and it stays protected throughout the transaction. Neither your systems nor our platform stores or accesses sensitive card data, which reduces risk and simplifies compliance.

End-to-end encryption that protects every transaction 

Sensitive payment data is encrypted at the earliest point and remains protected until it reaches the payment processor. 

• Encryption applied directly at the payment device
• Data remains encrypted throughout transmission
• No exposure of cardholder data within POS or middleware
• Secure communication between devices and processing hosts 

Core capabilities for payment security 

Reduce your PCI scope and compliance burden 

Managing PCI DSS requirements is complex, time-consuming, and costly. Systems that store or process sensitive card data have to meet strict compliance standards and undergo regular validation.



Because sensitive data is not exposed or stored within your environment, Tender Retail helps reduce PCI scope, so organizations can simplify compliance efforts while maintaining strong security standards.

Protect data while maintaining operational resilience 

Minimize exposure to sensitive payment data 

Reducing risk starts with limiting access to sensitive data. Tender Retail does not store full cardholder data or provide visibility into sensitive payment information, which minimizes exposure and reduces the risk of data breaches within your environment.

This approach also simplifies your security architecture by removing unnecessary points of vulnerability.

Maintain operations in unpredictable conditions 

Payment environments have to stay dependable even under less predictable conditions. From localized connectivity issues to broader infrastructure disruptions, systems need to keep operating without immediate intervention.

Tender Retail supports ongoing transaction processing, monitoring, and recovery across distributed environments, maintaining stability and continuity even when external systems or networks are unavailable.
