Purpose-built for the two SAQ types most e-commerce merchants need
From Zero to Compliant in Three Steps
Pick the SAQ that fits your e-commerce checkout, walk through the assessment with an AI Advisor, and download a report ready to share with your acquirer.
Pick Your SAQ
Choose SAQ A if you use a fully hosted checkout (Stripe redirect, PayPal Standard, Shopify-hosted) or SAQ A-EP if your own page collects card details (Stripe Elements, custom form).
AI-Guided Assessment
Walk through every applicable PCI DSS v4.0.1 requirement for your SAQ conversationally, or upload your existing policy PDF for an instant evaluation.
Download Your Report
Get a branded PDF compliance report with your score, findings, and prioritized remediation steps. Shareable with your acquirer.
11 of 12 PCI DSS Requirements
Our SAQ A and SAQ A-EP question banks are built directly from PCI DSS v4.0.1 sub-requirements. Anti-malware (Requirement 5) is the only domain that does not apply to e-commerce merchants on these SAQ types.
Questions you probably have
If this is your first time looking at PCI compliance, start here. Each answer is plain English, no jargon dumps.
PCI DSS is a set of security rules created by the major card networks (Visa, Mastercard, Amex, Discover) for any business that accepts credit card payments. If you take cards online, your payment processor and your acquiring bank expect you to be compliant. Not being compliant can mean fines, higher transaction fees, or losing the ability to accept cards.

Beyond Compliance
PCI DSS compliance is the baseline. We also offer hands-on security services to close the gaps your questionnaire uncovers.
Know Where You Stand in Under an Hour
Most merchants don't know which SAQ they need or how many requirements they already meet. Our AI advisor gives you a clear picture — with a downloadable report — in a single session.
