Shaparak announced: According to the Central Bank’s emphasis, no service is provided to online payment portals without this information and these payment portals must be deactivated online and immediately.
According to the IDEA and Shaparak Public Relations, the deputy supervisor of the payment network of Shaparak, referring to the deactivation of some internet terminals of payment companies in recent days, stated: This action is in accordance with the requirements of upstream institutions, such as Article 103 of the Executive Regulations of Article (14) of the Addendum to the Anti-Money Laundering Law. And the approvals of the Headquarters for Combating Goods and Currency Smuggling and the Central Bank’s order to Shaparak Company have been carried out.
Mohammad Sadeq Mehboubi said: Registration of internet terminal application for new acceptors of companies providing payment services from February 1, 2018 and new acceptors of payment assistance companies from December 3, 2021 is possible only by having this valid item and matching the identity of the owner of the symbol with the identity of the acceptor, and the terminals that have recently have been deactivated, related to the acceptors registered before the mentioned dates, which have been notified several times after the above dates to the payment companies to refine and correct the information and receive the symbol of their acceptors.
In response to the question of whether he was informed by Shaparak about the recent deactivation of the Internet terminals of gate pay companies, he said: Yes, they were informed, in addition, the list of acceptors without a valid symbol was again announced to gate way companies at the beginning of this year. According to the coordination made with the central bank, it was decided that if the information of the said receivers is not corrected, their terminals will be deactivated in several stages from June 9, 2023.
According to Mahboobi, these steps have been implemented based on the strict prioritization of receivers and frequent notifications, and the terminals that were recently deactivated on the 6th of November this year were related to the third step of terminals without symbols based on the aforementioned prioritization.
In response to the question of whether the company was fully aware of the consequences of the deactivation of the mentioned terminals, the vice president of Shaparak said: “Definitely, the application of such regulations has feedbacks at the level of companies and receivers, and Shaparak is also fully aware and prepared for this issue. Yes, but keep in mind that we are obligated to act based on the stated requirements. Of course, Shaparak has tried to reduce disruptions to a minimum for the acceptors and the payment network by providing a suitable deadline and previous notifications.
According to him, some payment companies have faced problems for various reasons (such as the problems of some of their receivers in not receiving this material), but Shaparak is inevitably obliged to implement the orders and regulations of the Central Bank and upstream institutions.
In response to the question that it is said that some of the deactivated terminals have valid IDs and were deactivated by mistake, Mahboubi emphasized: This is not true. Shaparak has always emphasized that the identity of the owner of this material must be the same as the identity of the acceptor, and only having this material on the site is not enough.
He added: For example, a large online store that has a valid ID cannot use its site address and ID for several other store acceptors because when Shaparak inquires from the ID system due to a discrepancy between the identity of the owner of the ID and the ID The recipient is not approved.
The deputy supervisor of Shaparak’s payment network emphasized: the criterion of Shaparak’s action for checking the information of this type of internet terminals is the information sent by the payment companies to Shaparak’s comprehensive system, and if there is an example of possible cases raised, there is a possibility of case-by-case investigation and transparency of the issue. .
