The Secure Core

Security is the foundation everything else sits on.

Pulse is built PCI-compliant by design — not with compliance bolted on afterward. Every product in the suite inherits the same tokenized, PCI DSS Level 1 rails, the same encryption, and the same audit trail. Build once, comply once.

Security posture

Bank-level protection on every transaction and interaction.

The controls below apply across PulsePay, PulseVoice, PulseBill, SocialCommand, and PulseEngage — because they all run on one secure core.

PCI DSS Level 1

Certified at the highest tier — validated annually for the largest transaction volumes, so you inherit our compliance instead of building your own.

End-to-end encryption

Point-to-point (P2PE) encryption in flight, TLS everywhere, and card data tokenized and vaulted at capture. Raw card numbers never touch your systems or ours.

Zero card exposure

On IVR and PulseVoice, callers enter card details straight into the secure gateway. No human agent — and no AI — ever sees or stores a card, keeping your PCI scope minimal.

Level 1, 2 & 3 processing

Enhanced data capture on corporate and government cards passes the extra fields that qualify transactions for lower interchange.

Continuous monitoring

Real-time transaction monitoring, velocity checks, and fraud controls run around the clock on bank-level infrastructure.

Access & audit

Role-based access, least-privilege permissions, and a unified, exportable audit trail across every product — cutting audit time by 75%+.

How a payment is protected

From keypad to settlement, the card is never in the clear.

1 · Capture
The customer enters card data on a hosted field, keypad, or voice prompt — encrypted at the point of entry.
2 · Tokenize
The gateway swaps the card for a token. Your systems and logs only ever hold the token.
3 · Vault
The real card is stored in a PCI-audited vault for future charges, recurring billing, and refunds.
4 · Settle
Funds move through certified processor rails with full Level 2/3 data and a complete audit record.
