Security is a key aspect of online payments, and it can no longer come at the expense of conversion. That\u2019s why solutions like 3D Secure 2 (3DS2) exist\u2014allowing customer authentication to be quick, seamless, and non-disruptive to the shopping experience. This ensures that both security and payment convenience go hand in hand, without creating friction in the purchase process.<\/p>\n

How do we ensure at Wannme that these standards are met using cutting-edge solutions? Our payment solution works exclusively with payment providers that implement technologies like 3D Secure 2. This guarantees secure transactions and ensures we stay compliant with regulations while protecting against fraud.<\/p>\n

What is 3D Secure?<\/h2>\n

3D Secure (or Three Domain Secure) is a protocol designed to verify the buyer\u2019s identity during online card payments. It involves three parties: the card-issuing bank, the card network (Visa, Mastercard, etc.), and the acquiring bank.<\/p>\n

This process helps prevent fraud in card-not-present (CNP) transactions and is mandatory for many operations within the European Economic Area under PSD2 regulations.<\/p>\n

Why is 3D Secure 2 important?<\/h2>\n

3D Secure 2 is the evolution of the original standard and improves payment authentication across several key areas:<\/p>\n

Optimized user experience<\/h3>\n

With 3DS2, there are no clunky redirects. Authentication happens natively\u2014within the browser or app\u2014improving conversion rates.<\/p>\n

More data, better analysis<\/h3>\n

Over 150 data points are shared between the merchant and the issuing bank, allowing for more accurate risk assessments and fewer authentication steps for the customer.<\/p>\n

Biometric and adaptive authentication<\/h3>\n

Customers can verify their identity using fingerprint, facial recognition, SMS codes, or other dynamic methods\u2014more security, less friction.<\/p>\n

How does it work?<\/h2>\n

3D Secure 2 adapts the level of authentication based on transaction risk:<\/p>\n
