Approval and accreditation schemes

Several accreditation and approval schemes are operated, namely:

Card Protection Agencies provide consumers with a card registration service. In the event that a card is lost or stolen, the consumer can stop all their cards and order replacements through the CPA. 

The scheme ensures that those Card Protection Agencies seeking accreditation meet minimum security requirements for the safe storage, processing and handling of valuable cardholder data.
