Vendorcom Europe is a multi-stakeholder membership organisation that connects seekers, solvers and shapers in the European Payments Community. Shaping the collaborative and competitive landscape in payments since launching in 2003, it has established itself as Europe’s definitive forum for keeping in touch with the what’s what and who’s who in payments. Through Vendorcom, SecureTrust will connect with the key stakeholders in the European Payments Community to help improve compliance programmes, security strategies, simplify the way organisations manage compliance and risk, and provide industry-leading consulting on Small Merchant PCI Compliance and Security programmes.

Commenting on the membership, Michael Petitti, president at SecureTrust said: “SecureTrust is thrilled to become a member of Vendorcom. With the launch of the SecureTrust brand in the past year, we’re excited to continue working with our terrific community of partners and customers while also strengthening our ties in the European market.
