Yeah, I can confirm ASB are insisting on 3-party for new gateway  
accounts, as I understand it most/all of the other banks are also  
moving towards that (others might be able to confirm that - I've only  
dealt with ASB recently).

That policy doesn't seem to affect existing setups.  In principle it  
doesn't seem a bad idea to require independent certification for  
merchants handling card details - I've seen some pretty shocking  
systems.  Mailto form anyone?

But that said I haven't been through the process of getting PCIDSS  
certification so don't know how onerous it is.


Kind regards,
James McGlinn
