Banking and commerce activity is increasingly originating from digital endpoints. While this represents new and interesting opportunities for engagement, these digital channels also require a robust and evolving set of fraud detection, authentication, and authorization mechanisms. The big challenge facing issuers is how to detect the bad activity and minimize false declines while also providing a positive customer experience.
3D Secure 2.0 can help issuers address both false declines and rising CNP fraud. It is a protocol that enables issuers to perform additional risk assessment at the time of a digital transaction and prompt the customer for additional authentication if the transaction appears risky. Issuers rely on access control server (ACS) technology provided by vendors for this advanced risk scoring; the benefit of 3D Secure 2.0 versus the initial version of 3D Secure is the vastly enhanced data that it supplies the engine.
With 3DS 2.0 for Merchants, you get payment security that doesn’t get in the way of business—a fraud prevention solution that stops illicit transactions in real time, without disrupting the customer experience. Our patented, predictive analytics and machine learning capabilities take advantage of the quantity and diversity of data provided by EMV 3DS, enabling highly accurate decision making via a combination of our unique global risk network and our in-house, industry-leading data science team.
With 3DS 2.0 for Merchants, your business benefits from the decades of leadership in fighting card-not-present (CNP) fraud through the combination of patented neural network models, powerful risk learning and scoring, and unsurpassed expertise in 3-D Secure. Our instant analysis of multidimensional, large-scale data enables transparent fraud assessment during transactions—not after. Even better, our unique machine learning capabilities mean each assessment is a little smarter than the last.
Frictionless authentication means more legitimate sales for your business. 3DS 2.0 for Merchants uses a combination of machine learning, real-time analytics, a dynamic rules engine, and a global consortium neural network model that automatically transforms multiple dimensions of large-scale data (spanning both issuer and merchant data) into valuable risk insight.
This fuels our powerful authentication tools, both flexible and scalable, giving you options for verifying customers quickly and easily. This means that legitimate cardholders don’t have to deal with the hassle of multiple authentication steps, while the bad guys are rejected.
Plus, we help you comply with mandates and governmental regulations such as the EU Payment Services Directive (PSD2) as well as issuer-mandated authentication programs, like EMV 3-D Secure supporting risk analysis for other payment methods and transaction types. Bottom line? There’s no need to compromise—strike the right balance with 3DS 2.0 Merchants.
