30 May 2025, United Kingdom – Mypinpad, a global innovator in mobile card payments acceptance and identity authentication software solutions, is pleased to announce that it has been appointed to the Board of Advisors of the PCI Security Standards Council (PCI SSC)—a key milestone that reinforces their leadership in secure, software-based payment innovation.
The PCI SSC is the global authority responsible for setting and maintaining standards that protect payment data and uphold the integrity of the payments ecosystem. Its Board of Advisors plays a critical role in shaping the direction of these standards, bringing together voices from across the industry to ensure relevance, security, and global applicability.
Mypinpad’s appointment reflects their longstanding commitment to security, innovation, and industry collaboration. As one of only a select group of global companies on the Board, the company brings deep experience in mobile-first and software-based payments acceptance—spanning technologies like SoftPOS and more recently, consumer device innovations such as Tap to Own Device, Tap to Add, Tap to Confirm/Verify.
As a Principal Participating Organization and a member of the Mobile Task Force, Mypinpad has been an active contributor to PCI SSC initiatives such as helping to shape the PCI Mobile Payments on COTS (MPoC) standard going forward.
“With a seat at the table, we’re committed to representing the evolving needs of mobile and software-based acceptance providers. As the industry accelerates toward software-driven, device-agnostic payment solutions, it’s essential that global security standards keep pace—and we’re proud to help shape that future,” says Barry Levett, CEO at Mypinpad.
“The Board of Advisors provides industry expertise and perspectives that influence and shape the development of PCI security standards and programs. We look forward to working with Mypinpad in our efforts to help organizations secure payment data globally,” says Gina Gobeyn, Executive Director at PCI SSC.
