RKI process diagram in three steps: log onto the online portal from your computer, laptop, tablet, or mobile phone; select the terminals to request a unique key from the payment processor; and the encryption key is injected into the device by the payment processor

Benefits include:

Faster Device Deployment

RKI allows cryptographic keys to be injected remotely, enabling payment devices to be configured and activated quickly without the delays associated with traditional key injection facilities.

Lower Operational Costs

By eliminating the need for secure rooms, specialized personnel, and device shipping, RKI significantly reduces the operational expenses associated with key management.

Flexible Remote Management

Keys can be deployed anytime in our PCI-certified facilities, allowing organizations to manage device fleets efficiently across multiple locations.

Multi-Key Injection Support

Inject multiple cryptographic keys into devices during a single session, simplifying large-scale deployments.

Real-Time Terminal Updates

Update and configure devices instantly, enabling rapid key provisioning and immediate readiness for payment processing.

Enhanced Payment Security

Secure cryptographic key injection ensures that payment terminals are properly configured to encrypt PIN data and support secure transaction verification.

Ideal for Unattended Payment Environments

Ideal for unattended locations such as vending machines, parking kiosks, transit terminals, and EV chargers, eliminating the need for manual servicing.

FAQ

How does RKI speed up device deployment?

Keys can be injected remotely, allowing devices to be activated quickly. This removes delays caused by shipping and manual handling.

Is RKI secure for handling sensitive payment keys?

Yes, RKI is designed with a strong security foundation to protect sensitive payment keys throughout the entire process. All cryptographic keys are generated and deployed from our PCI-compliant key injection facilities, ensuring they are handled in a highly controlled and certified environment. Keys are securely transmitted to devices using encrypted channels. This approach ensures that payment devices are properly configured to meet industry security standards, including secure PIN encryption and transaction verification.

Can I inject multiple keys into devices at once?

Yes, RKI supports multi-key injection in a single session. This simplifies large-scale deployments, such as EV charging station, parking meters, vending machines, and drive-thru.
