Awards Recognition at RetailNOW  2015

Last year's Awards Reception, open to all, was well received. In addition to expanding the size of room so all attendees can comfortably join us in recognizing this year's Award winners, we'll also be having reseller member attendees vote ONSITE at the event to select those they would like to recognize in six categories for the RSPA's Vendor of Excellence awards. Additionally this year's Innovative Solution Awards (ISA), offered in partnership with VSR Magazine, will be like no other. For the first time ever, we'll be presenting two awards per category - one VAR and one ISV. With this new twist, we offer greater participation opportunity than ever before, with a total of eight awards up for grabs. If you'd like to nominate a VAR or ISV for the Innovative Solution Awards, click here.

P2PE - Short, Sweet, & 2 the Point
Thursday, May 28, 2015 | 2:00PM EST
Presenter: Brad Cyprus, Netsurion
 
Let's get straight to the point: There is a lot of buzz out there regarding new payment technologies. While several solutions are "validated", many are not. Which of these qualify as Point to Point Encryption (P2PE) payment systems and how exactly is this tied to EMV and tokenization? With all the acronyms and all the hype, it is getting hard to understand what you should do moving forward. Join Bradley Cyprus, the Chief of Security and Compliance for Netsurion, on a webinar that will finally decrypt the mystery of P2PE and explain its place in the future of payments.
