Certification | Automated Certification with Centralized Control

AUTOMATED CERTIFICATION WITH CENTRALIZED CONTROL

As a member institution that needs a Brand Certification solution for pre-testing before scheduling certification with a network or payment brand, or a payment brand or network that needs a Self-Certification solution for its members; you need the speed, accuracy, security, centralized test data, and granular user control our certification solutions offer. Conduct certification testing anywhere, as your schedule allows. Your certification simulator runs unattended continuously, providing your users with the required tests and valid test data 24/7. And our Payment Brand/Network Certification and Self-Certification solutions can also supply the offline data files you need for settlement and reconciliation testing.

Pre-Test to Eliminate Issues with Network/Brand Certification

Before your required member certification testing, verify your message processing using our certification solution and supplied valid tests (updated monthly with applicable network mandates) from our large inventory of global and regional network formats. Gain visibility into each message bit to conduct highly customized tests, even EMV chip card scenarios.

Reduce Costs, Accelerate Onboarding with Self-Certification

As a processor or payment brand, you must efficiently onboard and certify clients. Rather than scheduling, managing, and monitoring lengthy manual tests, reduce certification time and costs using cloud-based automated certification. Centrally manage user access and maintain test data. Members certify online, on their schedules, with immediate access to results.

Customize Your Own Certification Solution

Need a unique self-certification solution with centralized control of test data and secure user access? Paragon can leverage our global experience with certification solutions to provide reliable, scalable, efficient self-certification for your members. A published API and SDK give you the connectivity and control to build a truly customized solution.

Bring Back-Office Processing to the Testing Forefront

Settlement testing is delayed until online testing completes because settlement requires offline files containing meaningful data. Now use test results to generate batch files for End of Day, Reconciliation, Clearing and Settlement, and Risk Assessment. Edit as desired: changing settlement/business dates, merchant IDs, or adding suspect data for negative testing.
