Product Codes

Learn what Product Codes are in Aperia SAQ PCI and how to choose the one that matches a merchant’s processing solution.

A Product Code is a customized SAQ (Self-Assessment Questionnaire) created to match a merchant’s typical payment setup.

Stax has created 4 Product Codes to reflect common processing solutions. Product codes help guide you through the assessment and can reduce the number of questions by focusing on the criteria most relevant to the merchant’s environment.

Select the Product Code that best matches your or the merchant’s processing solution to complete the assessment accurately.
