# Managed Network Service Provider (MNSP) Benefits

This document describes the benefits of having a Managed Network Service Provider (MNSP).

### WHY SHOULD I CONSIDER MNSP?

This document outlines the essentials of what MNSP is and why it’s a great choice for any
\
business.

### WHAT IS MNSP?

MNSP (Managed Network Service Provider) allows customers to have complete control of the store’s PCI-DSS environment by replacing the Verifone Enhanced Zone Router (EZR) with a new store routing solution. The MNSP program reduces the complexities of store networking by reducing networking hardware and providing a single point of contact for networking issues and expansion.

**Benefits of the MNSP Service for a Business**
\
There are many benefits to a business with transitioning to MNSP.

* Secure network communication across the store, as well as necessary communications
  \
  entering or leaving the store. <br>
* PCI-DSS is under the control of the business and uses vendors the business already
  \
  has relationships with. <br>
* The entire store network is visible from the MNSP device. <br>
* The MNSP solution easily scales for the growing and changing needs of the business
  \
  (cloud, loyalty, and more). <br>
* Networking support that extends beyond the core Verifone Help Desk support, provided
  \
  by the people who know your store’s network inside and out. <br>
* Installation costs are lower. <br>
* Pick the solution that’s best for your store - many sites will have a choice of provider and
  \
  be able to find the solution that’s right for their pocketbook and their needs.\*\* <br>
* And finally, sites with Outdoor EMV must use MNSP for their routing solution.

**\*\***&#x4D;ajor oil branded sites will need to validate provider or provider selection with their brand.
