Effective April 14, 2023, NCR PS will update our systems to reflect the following technical enhancements. Here's an overview of what's changing.

• To support the migration from magnetic-stripe data (MSD) contactless transactions to the EMV based contactless functionality, NPS will implement a $0.10 per transaction fee to merchants that are still processing MSD contactless transactions. Here's why...
