UltraCart’s integration with https://www.paay.co/ allows merchants to support 3DS 2.0 / PSD2 requirements.

Apart from meeting the Strong Customer Authentication (SCA) compliance under PSD2, there are numerous benefits to the new 3DS 2.0 protocol, especially from a mobile payments standpoint. The improved design dramatically increases the user experience on mobile devices by being fully compatible with mobile wallet applications and in-app transactions. 3DS 2.0 is user friendly where 3DS 1.0 was not.

Benefits of implementing 3DS 2.0:

  • With the addition of an SDK component, comprehensive integration with mobile apps is
    now possible, allowing merchants to natively integrate 3D Secure into their mobile apps.

  • Merchants can ensure that the authentication process looks
    and feels consistent with the rest of the app

  • Dramatically increases the user experience on mobile devices, including
    non-browser based platforms and mobile integration

  • Biometric authentication whilst still in the merchant’s app it will
    likely just feel like a valid security measure

  • The merchant’s platform will only require additional authentication if the risk is high –
    that will happen in only a small percentage of the transactions

  • Authentication activity will be invisible to the cardholder

  • 3DS 2.0 brings the promise of machine learning algorithms to better risk assessment. The new algorithms allow for a seamless data exchange across the three domains (merchant/acquirer, issuer, and interoperability). Furthermore, 3DS 2.0 utilizes machine learning and has 10 times more assessment data points than its predecessor, allowing for a more robust risk-based authentication. This means that with 3DS 2.0, repeated purchases online would be marked as low-risk by the merchant and issuing bank, which translates to a faster, easier, and more secure payment.

Pre-requisites

  • Your payment gateway must be:

    • Network Merchants (NMI)

    • World Pay Corporate (World Pay Business is not allowed to use an external MPI)

    • Braintree (*Does not support rotating gateways configuration)

  • You must utilize the StoreFront checkout on a visual builder based theme (Elements, Hero, Lifty, etc.)

A) UltraCart has to add support for individual gateways one by one. If your gateway is capable of supporting an external MPI, we can consider adding support for it.
