PCI Compliance Reference Guide for Chat Agents

  1. Acknowledge the Request
     Confirm with the merchant or partner that you understand they need to be compliant with PCI Standards and are ready to assist with the next steps.
  2. Provide the PCI Compliance Options using the Canned response, Short code (PCI)

I’d be glad to help with your PCI Compliance options at CSG Forte! You can achieve compliance through one of three methods:

 

Option 1: Enroll in CSG Forte’s PCI-DSS Compliance Program

We've partnered with a Primary and Secondary PCI Vendor to make compliance easier and cost-effective. This program, managed by Aperia, includes:

  • Dedicated PCI support for completing your Self-Assessment Questionnaire (SAQ)
  • $100,000 breach insurance coverage
  • Compliance Certificate issuance
  • Network Vulnerability Scanning (if applicable)

To enroll, submit the signed Aperia PCI Enrollment Form with your email for account setup. The monthly fee is $7.99, replacing the $29.99 non-compliance fee.

 

Option 2: Validate with a Third-Party Vendor

If you prefer a third-party vendor, select one from the PCI Standards Council's list and submit the following to Forte:

  • Attestation of Compliance Certificate
  • Scan documentation, if required

 

Option 3: Self-Assessment

You can also conduct a self-assessment using forms from the PCI Security Standards Council’s website. Submit the completed SAQ to Forte annually.

 

Note: Options 2 and 3 have no monthly compliance fee if documentation is provided.

Let me know if this answers your question or if you’d like further assistance!
