Release Note
Release 19.0
F23643-01
December 2019
This document highlights the major changes for Release 19.0 of Oracle Retail EFTLink.
Oracle Retail EFTLink is a middleware product that enables Oracle to remove Xstore Point of Service from the costly and frequently changing Payment Application Data Security Standard (PA-DSS). As retailers continue to investigate the most cost effective ways in which they can become compliant with PCI standards, EFTLink provides a tested and mature approach that is already deployed in over ten countries. The solution has been adopted as the strategic approach for Xstore Point of Service and enables the rapid support of payment solutions in new markets by working with payment providers who are local and/or offer an extensive international network.EFTLink uses an industry-standard interface to the point of service and then translates the messages to the relevant format provided by the payment provider, enabling the POS to be outside of the payment scope.In addition to providing the payment foundation for Xstore Point of Service, EFTLink is compatible with the Oracle Retail Xstore Point of Service Lane Checkout User Interface which also targets the convenience store market.
The following is a list of functional enhancements made to EFTLink since the last release.
