Website compliance is becoming increasingly difficult for merchants to manage. As privacy, accessibility, cookie consent, and other regulatory requirements continue to evolve, payment providers are being pulled into a growing compliance burden that extends well beyond PCI DSS.
Aperia Compliance, an IXOPAY company, launched Website Regulatory Compliance, powered by Clym, a white-label service that helps payment providers scale regulatory management without manually tracking regulation updates or building internal infrastructure.
The number of state-specific data privacy and regulatory compliance laws is increasing every year, with cure periods shortening. Merchants are increasingly exposed to regulatory complaints, accessibility claims, and privacy-related risk, while standalone widgets and overlays may not address the full scope of their compliance obligations. Meanwhile, payment providers must manually monitor, track, and support these merchants—leading to slow growth and risk exposure.
Aperia Compliance’s Website Regulatory Compliance service turns this burden into a value-add service. Website Regulatory Compliance, powered by Clym strengthens payment provider workflows and reduces friction for merchants by simplifying:
ADA Accessibility — Support website accessibility expectations while helping merchants reduce exposure to accessibility-related complaints and claims.
Privacy & Cookie Consent — Manage privacy disclosures, cookie banners, and consent requirements across applicable jurisdictions as privacy expectations evolve.
Age Gating Controls — Help merchants manage age-related access requirements for applicable products, services, and website experiences.
User Data Requests — Simplify how merchants manage consumer privacy requests, including requests for data access, deletion, and other applicable data rights.
Policy Generation — Help merchants generate and maintain website policies that reflect their privacy practices, data collection, and applicable requirements.
Ongoing Regulatory Updates — Keep website compliance experiences aligned with changing requirements as privacy, accessibility, and other regulations evolve.
Aperia Compliance, a digital compliance leader that dynamically updates controls as regulations are added or amended worldwide, to transform regulatory compliance beyond PCI requirements. Payment providers can leverage this program today to reduce internal workloads, improve merchant retention, and limit exposure without sacrificing scalability.
