Yes. There are IVR automation systems that can support call recording and PCI DSS requirements, but the key is whether they offer the right payment-security controls rather than just “recording” in general.
What to look for:
- Payment card data masking / pause-resume recording
- The system should be able to pause recording while the caller enters or speaks card details, then resume afterward.
- DTMF masking or suppression
- For keypad entry, the IVR should prevent card digits from being captured in recordings or logs.
- PCI-compliant payment capture
- Ideally the IVR uses a secure payment IVR or hosted payment page/secure payment gateway so the agent or recorder never sees the card data.
- Role-based access and encryption
- Recorded calls should be encrypted in transit and at rest, with strict access controls and audit trails.
- Redaction/tokenization
- Some systems can automatically redact recorded sensitive data or tokenize payment info.
Examples of vendor categories that often offer these capabilities:
- Contact center platforms with PCI features
- IVR/payment specialists
- Call recording/compliance platforms with pause/resume and redaction
Commonly used platforms that may support this, depending on configuration and product edition:
- Genesys Cloud / Genesys Engage
- NICE CXone
- Five9
- Avaya contact center solutions
- Talkdesk
- Twilio (typically with custom implementation for PCI-safe payment flows)
- Amazon Connect (with secure architecture and custom PCI controls)
- Verint or other recording/compliance tools paired with a telephony platform
Important note:
- Being “PCI capable” does not automatically mean compliant. Compliance depends on your full architecture, processes, and storage/access controls.
If you want, I can help you with either:
- a shortlist of vendors based on your phone system and budget, or
- a PCI checklist for evaluating an IVR/recording solution.
