Is PCI compliance mandatory?

In most cases, PCI compliance is more of a recommendation than an actual requirement.

However, there are some institutions such as online banks and payment processors which require PCI compliant servers from their clients.

Our servers are set up with a custom configuration, optimized for maximum security while maintaining top overall performance. In most cases, this is more than enough to ensure your website's normal functionality.

However, in some cases additional modifications are needed to make the server PCI compliant.

SiteGround's semi dedicated hosting plans are by default PCI compliant and offer a safe and stable environment for online merchants and their businesses. Higher-end dedicated hosting solutions provided by SiteGround can also be made PCI compliant on demand.
