Service Description
CPV is Mastercard's formal approval process to ensure that every technical chip card product offers a sufficient level of service,
acceptance, interoperability, performance, and security to cardholders and acceptance locations. CPV verifies the chip card
approval status from the functional, security, and quality perspectives and ensures that the card product is compliant with the
chip-related Mastercard payment product requirements and best practices.
CTC advanced as accredited Mastercard Service Provider offers the full range of CPV services (except EMVCo Common
Payment Application (CPA) based products) as described in the 'Card Personalization Validation Guide' published on

Service Levels
Mastercard imposes service levels on their service providers to achieve a high quality CPV service with minimum delay for
customer projects. These are in detail:
Service Levels (SLA)
Process Standard Service High-Priority Service
CPV Process Initiation < 2 days 1 day
Card Image Validation < 5 days 4 days
Card Sample Validation with previous card image validation < 2 days 1 day
Card Sample Validation without previous card image validation < 7 days 5 days
CNS validation < 2 days 1 day
CTC advanced reserves the right to change these service levels in unforeseeable cases, e.g. if CTC advanced needs to
consult Mastercard or in case of any delays that are not caused by CTC advanced. This may require putting the
validation on hold until the issues are settled.
