The updated release reads: 

PCI PAL RAISES THE BAR FOR PAYMENT SECURITY WITH SOC2 TYPE II WITH HIPAA/HITECH ATTESTATION

PCI Pal® (LON: PCIP), the global provider of secure payment solutions, has further strengthened its position as a trusted enterprise partner with the achievement of SOC 2 Type II attestation, delivering a level of assurance that goes beyond industry norms.

While many vendors rely on SOC 2 alone, PCI Pal has taken a more comprehensive approach. By combining SOC 2 Type II with HIPAA/HITECH Attestation, the organization is setting a higher standard for security and compliance, one designed to meet the demands of the most highly regulated industries.

This dual achievement provides independent, third-party validation of PCI Pal’s data protection, governance and risk management controls across its entire platform. Crucially, it ensures end-to-end assurance across the full product portfolio, giving enterprises confidence that security is embedded at every layer, not applied in isolation.

Security and compliance have long underpinned PCI Pal’s platform innovation, enabling organizations to adopt new payment technologies with confidence. This latest milestone reinforces that foundation, supporting secure customer interactions across both human and AI-driven environments, and across an expanding partner ecosystem.

For customers and partners operating in sectors such as healthcare, financial services and insurance, the impact is immediate. Recognized, independently validated standards help reduce friction in procurement processes, accelerate sales cycles, and simplify due diligence, particularly in markets such as North America where layered compliance requirements are especially stringent across distinct industries.

“Security is not a checkpoint for PCI Pal, it’s a continuous, platform-wide commitment,” said Royston Ballard, Chief Information Security Officer at PCI Pal. “Achieving SOC 2 Type II and HIPAA/HITECH attestation demonstrates not only the strength of our controls, but our decision to go beyond baseline standards and deliver a higher level of assurance across the entire platform.”

As regulatory expectations continue to evolve, PCI Pal’s approach reflects a clear direction of travel: delivering security and trust that is not only proven, but purpose-built for enterprise scale, giving organizations the confidence to move faster, innovate further, and operate securely in even the most demanding environments.

All certifications form part of PCI Pal’s broader compliance portfolio, accessible through the PCI Pal Trust Center, providing transparency and easy access to the information enterprise buyers need.
