Salem and Tampa

According to Chase Paymentech:

"Chase Paymentech’s Orbital Gateway is a proprietary XML Internet Processing System. This system works with both of Chase Paymentech’s Host Processing Platforms - PNS (Tampa) and Salem.

“Chase Paymentech maintains two proprietary Authorization and Deposit platforms. The PNS platform, which is sometimes referred to as the Tandem or Tampa, is primarily targeted to Retail and smaller customers. The Salem platform, sometimes referred to as the Stratus, is primarily targeted to Card-Not- Present and larger customers. Despite name, both systems are collocated in both Tampa, Florida and Salem, New Hampshire.

“Each Platform has unique processing features, and since Orbital supports both, not all features are available to all merchants.”
