Visa, Bluefin Launch In-Person Payment Offering

09:23 AM EDT, 08/25/2026 (MT Newswires) -- Visa (V) and Bluefin said Tuesday that they have launched a new offering for in-person card payments that combines Visa Acceptance Solutions with Bluefin's payment security technology. The companies said the service combines payment processing, tokenization, device management, and PCI-validated point-to-point encryption, or P2PE, into one system. They said it is intended to simplify deployment, centralize device management, and reduce the amount of payment data covered by payment card industry compliance requirements. Visa and Bluefin said the service will initially support selected certified Ingenico Lane series devices and is intended for merchants, software providers, and large organizations in industries such as retail, hospitality, healthcare, petroleum, and higher education.
