What Is Dejavoo?

Dejavoo operates its own hosted gateway platform to support Denovo Network accounts while maintaining PCI Compliance requirements with Dejavoo hosting Dejavoo payment terminals. Dejavoo’s Denovo Network is a hosted gateway service for PIN Debit transactions, which Dejavoo has been offering since 2006 as an independent solution from any network or acquiring bank. In addition to Denovo as a building block, Dejavoo Network Gateway also offers EMV and NFC capabilities.
