Smart Card Alliance and International Parking Institute Publish New Edition of EMV and Parking White Paper

With the U.S. moving to EMV chip technology for more secure credit and debit card payments, parking industry stakeholders across the payments value chain recognize the need to learn about EMV to plan to migrate their infrastructure effectively. Now that the October 2015 EMV fraud liability shifts are in place, the Smart Card Alliance and the International Parking Institute (IPI) have revised last year’s white paper, EMV and Parking, to provide current information on the technology and refreshed scenarios covering the critical aspects of deploying EMV-compliant solutions within the parking infrastructure.

“Understanding how EMV affects different attended and unattended parking scenarios is critical for parking operators planning upgrades to accept chip transactions,” said Randy Vanderhoof, executive director of the Smart Card Alliance. “By collaborating with IPI and bringing together experts from both industries, we are uniquely positioned to provide the education and implementation guidance necessary to help parking stakeholders move their chip technology implementations forward.”
