Security Metrics is legit, theoregonweaver.
Intuit has a PCI service provider to help our QuickBooks Payments subscribers meet Data Security Standard (DSS) compliance requirements.
If you have created a QuickBooks Payments account to link with QuickBooks Self-Employed with SecurityMetrics, then you'll be asked to complete its FastPass.
Yes, this compliance is necessary for Security Metrics if you purchase the PCI package. That's why they charge a fee for the service. In addition, you need to complete the Self-Assessment Questionnaires (SAQ) and set up your scans.
You should be able also to receive email instructions. If none, I suggest browsing this article to learn other details about PCI compliance and your roles: Learn about QuickBooks PCI Service.
On the other hand, I also suggest contacting our QuickBooks Payments Support Team. This way, they can securely check your subscription for any add-on PCI Service fee. I also encourage you to report this to our Intuit Security team since you find this prompt message suspicious or if you don't have a QuickBooks Payments subscription. This way, they can review if the information is legitimate.
