CardDog delivers private card, gift card and other in-house card programs. Developed as the cloud-based payment processing platform, it allows ski resorts to accept, process and track gift and other in-house card programs at their wide variety of POS systems. The CardDog host acts as the gateway for switching, processing, and reporting. Now enhanced by Argos, the platform securely handles credit and debit cards while continuing to process in-house cards. 

Argos employs end-to-end encryption, tokenization and hosted payment server technology to remove cardholder data from resort POS and eCommerce systems. Argos, augments its multi-card processing platform by protecting cardholder data from the risks associated with data breaches.  Ingenico's family of terminals and PIN Pads are supported and card entry can be made via NFC such as Apple Pay and Tap, EMV (chip), swipe and key-entry.  Argos dramatically reduces credit and debit card PCI scope, provides superior store & forward capabilities, and streamlines reporting for all payment types and locations.
