We are constantly working with our vendor partners to train our field technical staff to ensure the highest levels of knowledge in the industry. The current deadline for the EMV Compliance is April 16, 2021. According to the Petroleum Equipment Institute, retailers big and small are pushing hard for the deadline to be pushed one final time, through October 2021. This push is being requested as major equipment and service providers are booked through summer with EMV upgrades. The original deadline was October of 2015 and has already been pushed multiple times. If you are thinking that you want your business EMV compliant, the time to act is now.
