Pay safely with Buckaroo
Dutch Central Bank (De Nederlandsche Bank or DNB)
As a payment service provider, we have obtained a PSD (Payment Service Directive) licence, granted by the Dutch Central Bank. Buckaroo is listed in the register of payment institutions of the Dutch Central Bank.
iDEAL licence holder and acquirer
Buckaroo is the largest non-banking processor of iDEAL transactions. In order to be allowed to process these transactions, it is necessary to obtain an iDEAL licence, granted by Currence. This licence is strictly supervised and is monitored every three years, having to meet a wide range of requirements.
Not only has Buckaroo obtained an iDEAL licence, we’re also an iDEAL acquirer. Thus, we can act as direct contracting party in order to receive iDEAL payments. The Currence website contains an up-to-date overview of the licence holders, certificate holders and acquiring parties, in which Buckaroo is also listed.
PCI Security Standards
Each Merchant and Payment Service Provider that accepts credit card transactions, has to meet the PCI Data Security safety standards required by the major credit card companies. Each year, Buckaroo is audited for the purpose of monitoring compliance with these standards. Needless to say, Buckaroo meets the most onerous security requirements. Check out Buckaroo’s PCI status yourself.
General Data Protection Regulation (AVG)
Buckaroo complies with the Algemene Verordening Gegevensbescherming (General Data Protection Regulation). We only use data that allow us to facilitate and process payments. In principle, Buckaroo does not store any other data than the data we need to process a payment, and these data are retained for as little time as is strictly necessary.
