SAS 70

Annually since 2006, StoreFinancial has also chosen to participate in a Type II SAS 70 audit, which is a enhanced comprehensive version of the SAS 70 audit. We choose to participate to confirm our company has the proper controls in place, and ensure our controls operate at an effective level that is verified by an independent auditing firm.

Each year, StoreFinancial has received an unqualified opinion in regard to the implementation and effectiveness of our controls, illustrating no material exceptions were identified.

Compliance to these standards demonstrates our strong desire to do business securely, accurately, and with the best intentions in mind regarding the privacy of data belonging to our clients.




"Our paper program was an administrative nightmare with a huge opportunity for fraud. After a lot of research, StoreFinancial rose to the top of our list as a company to handle our card program.”
