Payments NZ determines sunset dates for all payment devices and software versions. Every payment terminal or software version goes through a life cycle, ensuring that the entire payments ecosystem stays at the forefront of security by regularly upgrading software and devices to meet industry standards. This process protects cardholders and businesses from fraud. Non-compliance puts your business at risk of disconnection from the payment network.
