PCI DSS data centers in Australia
Facilities in Australia that publish PCI DSS certification. Mandatory for infrastructure that stores, processes or transmits cardholder data. Without it, payment workloads cannot legally land in the facility.
30 of the 168 facilities we track in Australia publish PCI DSS — 4 operators, 346 MW of published IT capacity, 30 operational. Cities: Melbourne (Tullamarine), Sydney (Artarmon), Sydney (Rosehill), Perth (CBD), Sydney (St Leonards), Melbourne (Clayton), Melbourne (Port Melbourne), Sydney (Macquarie Park), Brisbane (Fortitude Valley), Perth (Malaga), Sydney (CBD), Sydney (Alexandria), Sydney (Mascot), Sydney (Unanderra), Melbourne (Derrimut), Melbourne (West Melbourne), Canberra, Perth (East Perth), Perth (Shenton Park), Canberra (Mitchell), Adelaide.
For context, wholesale colocation in Australia is benchmarked at $188 per kW per month (CBRE, Global Data Center Trends 2026 (17 June 2026)), and commercial electricity at $0.252 per kWh — certification rarely changes the rack rate, but it narrows the shortlist.
