Gala Coral’s Jim Noakes, who will be co-presenting the session, said: "As a big sports betting and gaming merchant, we have benefited tremendously from outsourcing our PCI compliance.

“Leveraging the cumulative information capital and the latest technologies developed by SafeCharge, we were able to improve end-user experience, save on annual costs and reduce risks of card security breaches."

Shemer Katz, vice president of product and marketing at SafeCharge, will conclude the presentation. Katz said: "A recent Gartner Research shows that the cost of in-house Level 1 PCI-related work is $693,000 per annum. As such, outsourcing has now become a major trend across industries.

"Gala Coral was at the forefront of this wave. We provide them and dozens of other merchants a reliable PCI compliance alternative that comes with plenty of benefits including increased payment conversion and minimised risk of fraud."

The joint session will be held on April 18 at 11am.
