100% PCI DSS compliant hosting
If your website handles credit card transactions, you'll likely need to be PCI DSS compliant and process payments in a secure hosting environment. All Krystal business hosting plans run on PCI-scan compliant servers, so you can take payments on your website following PCI Security Standards Council guidelines.
PCI compliance levels
There are four levels of PCI DSS compliance. They depend on how many credit card transactions you complete annually and how you handle them.
1
Compliance Level 1
Merchants that process over 6,000,000 Visa or MasterCard e-commerce transactions annually, or any merchant that has experienced a data breach where sensitive information was compromised on the server.
2
Compliance Level 2
Merchants that process between 1,000,000 and 6,000,000 Visa or MasterCard e-commerce transactions annually.
3
Compliance Level 3
Merchants that process between 20,000 and 1,000,000 Visa or MasterCard e-commerce transactions annually.
4
Compliance Level 4
Merchants that process fewer than 20,000 Visa or MasterCard e-commerce transactions annually.
