Finance Industry FAQs
Wondering if PCI compliance applies to your accounting or bookkeeping firm? If you accept card payments in any form, these quick answers will help you understand your responsibilities and how to stay protected.
Do accountants and bookkeepers need to be PCI compliant?

Yes. If you accept card payments—whether in person, online, or by phone—you’re required to comply with PCI DSS, regardless of your firm’s size.

What if I use software like QuickBooks or FreshBooks for payments?

You may still need to complete a self-assessment questionnaire, depending on how card data is handled. PCI Manager helps you determine the right form and walk through it step by step.

I use a virtual terminal to key in payments—am I in scope?

Definitely. Manually entering card numbers puts you in PCI scope. The good news: PCI Manager simplifies compliance and scanning so it’s easy to stay protected.

What happens if my firm doesn’t comply?

You could face monthly fees from your payment processor, higher transaction rates, or full liability in the event of a data breach. Compliance helps reduce that risk and shows clients you take security seriously.
