Fraud prevention
Our virtual payment terminal is secure and GDPR compliant. Customer details aren’t recorded on paper but are added directly into the system for processing. Once a payment has been made, a Blink Payment unique reference is generated so that future transactions made by the same card can be re-run or set a schedule without the customer having to give their details again.
