Bluefin and Datecs Partner to Enhance Payment Security with ShieldConex® Orchestration

Bluefin, a leader in PCI-validated P2PE and tokenization, has partnered with Datecs Ltd., a global provider of advanced payment terminals, with full-scale R&D, SMT and manufacturing, in Europe to bring Bluefin’s ShieldConex® Orchestration platform to Datecs’ Android-based payment devices.

ShieldConex Orchestration offers a secure, data exchange solution that seamlessly integrates multi-channel tokenization and PCI-validated P2PE, reducing PCI compliance scope and enhancing data security without vendor lock-in.

Through the partnership, Datecs merchants, ISOs and ISVs can choose their preferred processor and Android device for PCI-validated P2PE protection.

“PCI-validated P2PE is the gold standard in payment security, but not all P2PE providers support every certified device,” said Andrew Monroe, Chief Revenue Officer at Bluefin. “ShieldConex Orchestration allows Datecs Android devices to send encrypted data to Bluefin’s platform for secure decryption and formatting before authorization. This gives Datecs clients a new level of choice and flexibility.”

“Our integration with ShieldConex Orchestration ensures that merchants can maintain the highest level of security while working seamlessly with processors that may not natively support Android P2PE devices,” said William Nichols, President Americas for Datecs Ltd. “This partnership eliminates technical roadblocks to adopting P2PE and provides a more versatile and secure payment solution to our customers across the globe.”
