PCI compliance is required to process payments through ServiceBridge. Once you start taking payments, you will have 90 days to complete your PCI Compliance questionnaire. It is a short survey provided by CardConnect and hosted by Trustwave to verify you are following best practice when it comes to handling credit card payments. You can learn more about PCI Compliance on CardConnect's website.

If you have a lot of customer cards on file that you would like to migrate over to CardConnect to ensure you get the best rates and save money, you can follow the steps to Migrate Credit Card Tokens. It is recommended you do this only if you have more than 100 credit cards on file that need to be migrated as the process may take some time to complete.
