how to fill out the questionnaire

thanks for keeping track of this nonsense!

Ok, for the Metro Merchant Services questionnaire, you use a Completely Outsourced Shopping Cart (I hate that term, 82North is so much more!). If it requires you to answer something about a terminal, your use a Virtual Terminal - unless of course you actually bought a terminal and use it.

Once you have completed the survey, you may get a "Congrats you can fill out the SAQ-A" which is where all of 9 is N/A - you do not carry around any cardholder data on any media (meaning paper or hard drive or whatever) and all but one question for part 12 is YES. As I recall, there is one piece, again about media, which is N/A.

Later on the SAQ-A it will ask you to explain N/A - do so saying that no cardholder data is kept on any media.
