North49 Business Solutions Teams with Sage to Offer Its Customers a Secure, Integrated, PCI Compliant Credit Card Payments Environment

North49 Business Solutions Can Easily and Cost Effectively Set Up Merchant Accounts and Accept Credit Cards, Thanks to Sage’s Latest Program for Software Developers

Vancouver, BC. Canada – March 20, 2012 – North49 Business Solutions, a leading Sage 300 ecommerce solution provider and Sage Gold Development Partner, today announced it has joined the Sage Payment Solutions Development Partner Program. As a member of the program, North49 Business Solutions can offer integrated, Payment Card Industry (PCI) compliant credit card payments within their Webtelligence Integrated Ecommerce Processing Software as a Service-based (SaaS-based) system. Integrating their Webtelligence Integrated Ecommerce Processing Software as a Service-based (SaaS-based) system to the Sage Exchange payments platform allows North49 Business Solutions to remove their application from the scope of the Payment Application Data Security Standard (PA-DSS).

“The Sage program for software developers lets us cost effectively provide our customers with a payment experience that is integrated, secure, and PA-DSS compliant. Integrated payments, simplicity of setting up a merchant account, and the ability to accept credit cards offers huge value for us and our customers. Just as important, because integrating to Sage Exchange removes our online platform from the scope of PA-DSS, we’re saved from the costs and complexities associated with coding to PCI.”
