Family-owned food retailer Heron Foods has selected Verifone’s P2PE-Certified Payment as a Service in a move to protect cardholder data and improve customer experience.

The solution enables Heron Foods to strengthen payment security, reduce payment authentication times and accept NFC-based payments at all of its 248 stores.

Verifone said that its platform also protects cardholder data across Heron Foods’ payment terminals, networks and systems.

With this solution, Heron Foods will provide faster authorization and shorter queue times for customers.

Under the partnership, Heron Foods can access Verifone’s Value Added Services (VAS) to increase sales and enhance customer loyalty.
