Curious about our approach to authenticating consumer transactions? Check out our most frequently asked questions below.
3-D Secure is a fraud prevention protocol that was created by Visa and Mastercard to authenticate e-commerce transactions. The protocol sits on the merchant payment form between the payment page and the gateway, verifying transactions in real-time.
Typically, Visa & MC do not work directly with merchants or ISO's to make 3DS accessible; they rely on certified providers like PAAY to service the e-commerce market.
In the US, there are only two certified providers of 3-D Secure, and PAAY is one of them.
The authentication starts as soon as the customer finishes entering their credit card information on the merchant payment form prior to the customer hitting submit. If the transaction is authenticated, the merchant will receive 3DS data that is then passed to the gateway and finally to the processor. There is no impact on the customer experience, everything happens on the backend. To Demo how this works, please visit our demo checkout page. As you enter your credit card information, you will see the authentication happen (Don't worry, your credit card won't be charged!)
If the transaction is not authenticated, PAAY will close out the authentication request and the transaction will continue as normal. There will be no impact on the customer experience, however, the liability shift will not occur.
About 65% of transactions are authenticated and qualify for a liability shift. There are ways to optimize your payment page to increase the number of authenticated transactions. For more information on how to optimize your payment page please contact help@3dsintegrator.com

Yes. Please check the logs in your Konnektive CRM account, you should find a CAVV, ECI and XID for each protected transaction, if you cannot see any of these values attached to the transaction it did not receive 3DS protection. If you are using another CRM please contact them directly to see if they accept 3-DS data.
U.S. banks support 3-D Secure. If you are using an international bank please reach out to them to confirm that they support it as well.
The solution works with all processing platforms that have the pass through fields to capture 3D Secure data (ECI, CAVV, XID), and this is the case with almost all major processors.
*Note: The only processing platform that we know does NOT have the fields for 3D Secure, is First Data's Omaha frontend platform. (The backend DOES accept 3D Secure).
