Patent attributes
Method and system of performing transactions with a payment card in a managed integrated payment environment comprising an integrated circuit are disclosed comprising interacting with an integrated circuit on a received payment card to obtain card data by a payment terminal and determining whether full online transaction processing of the card data is required. If full online transaction processing of the card data is required, the card data is sent to a point-of-sale terminal, which sends the card data and a transaction total for the transaction to a merchant gateway, which obtains approval or denial of the transaction. The approval or denial is provided to the PIN pad by the merchant gateway via the point-of-service terminal. The PIN pad also receives transaction data and sends the transaction data and card data to a services processor to collect metadata, perform fraud and security checks, and/or encrypt the card data.
