How it works

Built for merchants & resellers

We've designed a product line to quickly and easily offer merchants all the benefits of EMV 3DS without the shortcomings that typically come along with it.

​

​

Our software solution sits on the merchant payment form and allows the acquiring bank (merchant’s bank) to verify with the issuing bank (cardholder’s bank) that a cardholder is in fact who they say they are. This is done before the transaction is sent through for processing via a security check utilizing risk based authentication.

​

To make getting started easy, we have built a Javascript SDK for 3DS 1.0 as well as 3DS 2.1. Currently, our solution functions as a hybrid and will trigger the appropriate version of the protocol. Factors that determine the version include the issuing bank, gateway, and processor involved in the transaction. 

Benefits

Lower Interchange

Verified transactions are considered less risky and as a result can qualify for a lower interchange fee anywhere from 5 to 30 bps, directly impacting your bottom line.

Liability Shift

PSD2 Compliance

PAAY EMV 3DS offers chargeback protection by shifting the liability for friendly fraud off of the merchant & onto the issuing bank.

No impact on the customer experience
