Our company is exploring the possibility to have their website redirect users to a payment gateway hosted by Vantiv (we're currently an Element/Vantiv customer) to meet current PCI compliance standards. The user would need to be able to "tokenize" their credit card on a Vantiv-hosted page, from which would then be redirected back to the company's e-commerce site. Is there a Vantiv solution to accommodate this redirection process?
I believe you should look at our eProtect solution. With the eProtect iFrame implementation you place Vantiv hosted fields on your checkout page. We capture PAN and other sensitive information in these fields and return to you a low-value token, which you convert to a high-value token as part of the Auth/Sale transaction. In this way, you never touch any sensitive information, reducing PCI requirement, without having to redirect to a hosted page and back again.
Thanks, Tom. Will this method enable CVV entry?

Yes. CVV is one of the hosted fields. You should take a look at the Enterprise eProtect Integration Guide (Vantiv Enterprise eProtect Integration Guide V2.13). Chapter 1 has an overview of eProtect and chapter 2, section 2.2, has information about integrating the iFrame option.

Ok. Thanks, Tom. But, to clarify, there’s currently not an option to transfer the user to an entirely Vantiv-hosted page, where the user enters their card information (Like PayPal)? Iframe is the only Vantiv-hosted solution?

Aaron,
I'm the Leader of Technical Publications for the Vantiv eComm LOB, so I can't claim knowledge of everything being worked on across the company. Having said that, I'm pretty confident that we do not offer a fully hosted checkout page option at this time. When we decided on the iFrame (hosted fields) option one of the reasons is that it affords the merchant considerably better control of the overall look and feel of the page as well as the informational content. Although we occasionally get questions, such as yours, about having fully hosted pages, once merchants look at the iFrame option and understand the reasoning, they universally find it meets their requirement, especially with some recent enhancement.
Take a look at the following:
Our Vantiv O.N.E. developers’ website offers a demonstration of the new iFrame enhancements for the Vantiv eProtect form using a light, modified responsive stylesheet called Skeleton, and a browser normalizing CSS.
