Man. I really like that idea, but is giving a random "success" to a supposed credit card charge PCI compliant?

- linkregister 9y agoPCI is largely misunderstood. Spoofing a success on a transaction has nothing to do with proper storage and transmission of credit card information. Most e-commerce sites will use a payment processor such as Braintree or Stripe so they don't even have to deal with PCI. PCI applies to entities who store and process their own payments, e.g. Target, Amazon.
- adrr 9y agoPCI doesn't care about what i return to the customer. It covers protecting the card number. It could be in the merchant agreement but most of those rules are never enforced. Its against card brand rules to require a person to show an ID but all merchants do it. Merchant account agreement requires you to prevent fraudulent purchases and that part is heavily enforced which is why the card brands turn a blind eye to the merchants asking for an ID.
