TSYS has joined forces with Acquirer Systems to launch a new testing solution to simplify the EMV certification process for value-added resellers (VARs) and integrated software vendors (ISVs).

Dubbed ASTREX, the new solution is an EMV payments simulation platform, which enables developers to test varied transactions and network scenarios.

The solution removes the need of complicated integration steps through its scalability, reduces EMV certification time, as well as mitigates overall EMV implementation costs.

ASTREX offers VARs and ISVs a sustainable method of validating their payments ecosystems through carrying out tests from an easy-to-use workspace that does not require further password management or secondary login information.

Acquirer Systems CEO Fergal Molloy said: "We have worked with TSYS to help eliminate the complexities of migrating to EMV.
