The hospitality industry is one where franchisees or local owners participate in branding, so any given location may or may not be company owned. -----Original Message----- From: dataloss-bounces () attrition org [mailto:dataloss-bounces () attrition org] On Behalf Of JAMES RITCHIE Sent: Tuesday, August 26, 2008 2:41 PM To: Harris, Michael C.; dataloss () attrition org Cc: macwheel99 () wowway com Subject: Re: [Dataloss] Best Western Response Loophole that is found. If each local hotel gains their own merchant ID, processes the transaction through a payment gateway that is not the corporate headquarters, then their level will be determined on that merchant ID, not the aggregate of all the hotels. If each hotel processes through corporate headquarters (now becomes the gateway) to the payment gateway, then the aggregate of all hotels would be combined into one. I have seen where each location was forced to get their own merchant ID and payment gateway to keep the transactions down, thus keeping the cost of audits down.
