EMV payment systems – payment gateway certification list

Which payment gateways have an EMV certified terminal solution today? Not many. Our lists include gateways with an EMV chip card acceptance solution that can be enabled today, those that are working on it, and those that are not going to integrate.
POS software can integrate a payment gateway to segregate payments from applications, and reduce PCI Compliance scope. The payment gateway is responsible for EMV equipment certifications to each acquirer, in addition to P2PE and other features that may be available.

Payment Gateways planning to certify US EMV terminals

Payment Gateways and Software Vendors not planning to certify US EMV terminals:

These First Data Independent Software Vendors (ISV’s) are not planning to do EMV certification *. Since First Data is one of the largest acquirers, it may be reasonable to assume the gateways will not certify to any acquirer. The ISV’s may have a replacement product, thus that’s the reason for not planning to certify.
