Dynamic 3D Secure
Due to regulations from the European Banking Authority SCA has been a standard in the European Economic Area since 2019. 3D Secure supports this regulation by two-factor authentication. Our solutions detect when a customer's card is issued in the EEA and only apply 3D Secure Authentication in this case.
Transactions without 3D Secure Authentications are not covered under liability shift protections, so we recommend enforcing 3D Secure Authentications when possible, even if it increases friction during checkout.
Contact us if you would like to turn on 3D Secure Authentication for non-EEA jurisdictions.
