Testing Procedure

1. Swipe or insert the card into the PCI-compliant device.
2. Enter the CVV number associated with the card.
3. Follow the prompts to test the card's validity and PCI compliance.

Security Measures

Always ensure that your testing environment is secure, using encrypted connections and following best practices to protect cardholder data.
