The cost of such a security breach goes far beyond that, however; once a business has lost the trust of its customers, 60% of those cardholders will go elsewhere for their purchases and services, according to studies on the problem.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Imagine if this happened to your <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nationaltransaction.com\/travel-merchants\/Process-Travel-Payment-Merchant-Account.html\">travel agency merchant account<\/a>? It could be disastrous, especially because agencies tend to deal with high-dollar sales from a moderately-sized pool of customers &#8211; so every client counts.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">NTC knows that you, like us, care about your customers, and we want your travel agency to be seen as a trustworthy place to book a dream vacation. The first step is for your business to be PCI-DSS compliant.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">PCI-DSS (Payment Card Industry-Digital Security Standards) requirements were put in place by the credit card associations to deal with the increasing problem of identity theft and data loss. The requirements vary according to the types and the number of payment transactions your agency goes through, but you can be sure that NTC will help you stay compliant with the latest security standards.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In the event of a data breach, we are here to eliminate the negative impact it can have on your company. NTC may be able to help you with the fines, assessments, and other costs from the networks, and we will consult with you on how to proceed to protect your agency and your reputation.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As you know, data security is as much a concern for the business owner as it is for the cardholder &#8211; your customer. When your clients know that their data is safe with you, they will keep coming back to your agency to book their next great trip!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you cannot wait to read blog number two out of this three part series, feel free to call NTC now at 888-996-2273 to find out the best options for your travel agency!<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Over the next three weeks we will explore on this blog some of the reasons why National Transaction Corporation is<\/p>\n<div id=\"more-button\"><a class=\"btn btn-more excerpt-more\" href=\"https:\/\/www.nationaltransaction.com\/credit-card-merchant\/national-transaction-preferred-choice-for-travel-agents\/\">Continue Reading<\/a><\/div>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[122,109,139],"tags":[345,392,108,25,49,59,212,140,405],"class_list":["post-4588","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-credit-card-processing-2","category-credit-card-security","category-travel-agency-agents","tag-cardholder","tag-data","tag-fraud","tag-merchant-account-2","tag-payments","tag-security","tag-transaction","tag-travel","tag-visa"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.nationaltransaction.com\/credit-card-merchant\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4588","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.nationaltransaction.com\/credit-card-merchant\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.nationaltransaction.com\/credit-card-merchant\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.nationaltransaction.com\/credit-card-merchant\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.nationaltransaction.com\/credit-card-merchant\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=4588"}],"version-history":[{"count":12,"href":"https:\/\/www.nationaltransaction.com\/credit-card-merchant\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4588\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":5112,"href":"https:\/\/www.nationaltransaction.com\/credit-card-merchant\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4588\/revisions\/5112"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.nationaltransaction.com\/credit-card-merchant\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=4588"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.nationaltransaction.com\/credit-card-merchant\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=4588"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.nationaltransaction.com\/credit-card-merchant\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=4588"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
