Does anyone know if there is a peering point setup to pass traffic to credit card processes such as First Data and or the ATM interexchange networks? Cheers Ryan

If you're talking about exchanging IP traffic with a payment processor, I don't think there is an exchange point dedicated to them. They would either buy transit from a provider, or have a presence at one or more public exchange points. If you want to use a specific payment processor, many of the ones I've seen have a way to move payment info securely over the public Internet, or if you have a large enough transaction volume (or your business policies require it), a circuit directly to the processor's network might be an option. I'm not exactly sure what you mean by an "ATM interexchange network". jms

There are financial networking providers like SAVVIS and others who handle this. There are a number of others including parties with PCI-DSS competence in their compliance models. The evidence capture and maintanence requirements for these closed networks are very strict so, they dont allow non-players to participate in their activities. The Banking Service orgs like DIRBOLD Financial for instance or NCR or any of a couple dozen other providers do this type of thing... What specifically are you looking to do with them?
