Process of 3-D Secure payments
MasterCard SecureCode (UCAF), Verified by Visa (VbV)Secure, Diners ProtectBuy, JCB J/Secure and American Express SafeKey are authentication methods which verify the identity of the card holder before making the payment. The name 3-D Secure used by technicians describes only the protocol. The correct brand names are Verified by Visa Secure, MasterCard SecureCode, SafeKey, ProtectBuy and J/Secure.
Merchants benefit from authentication with 3-D Secure because the card schemes provide a liability shift: If you are using Verified by Visa Secure, MasterCard SecureCode, Diners ProtectBuy, JCB-Card J/Secure or American Express SafeKey, the burdon of proof and thereby generally the liability is shifted from the merchant to the card issuing bank, should the customer dispute the payment. Irrespective of whether the card holder actually uses the authentication you obtain a very high protection against payment defaults / chargebacks in case the customer states they have not authorised the card payment. Your Acquirer will be able to discuss the details of 3-D Secure and the cover that it provides.
From a technical perspective 3-D Secure is not a payment method but an authentication process which precedes the payment: Once the credit card data has been entered,
checks the identity of the card holder and does not process the payment until after the authentication. Multiexcerpt include SpaceWithExcerpt ENWORKEN MultiExcerptName Platform-Kurz PageWithExcerpt Wording
For further steps it is crucial if the credit card connection is made via form interface or via Server-to-Server-connection. In the first case the
form assumes the further authentication process, with Server-to-Server-connection the merchant has to manage the authentication through a separate interface. Multiexcerpt include SpaceWithExcerpt ENWORKEN MultiExcerptName Platform-Name PageWithExcerpt Wording
Notice: Please make sure to review our EMV 3D Secure Specification to integrate according to the newest standards.

Please notice that in case of Fallback to 3-D Secure 1.0 the URLSuccess or URLFailure is called with GET. Therefore your systems should be able to receive parameters both via GET and via POST. |
Process of a transaction with 3-D Secure via form interface

Process of a transaction with 3-D Secure via Server-to-Server-connection
To carry out authentication,
connects the card holder to his bank, which confirms the identity. A payment process with Verified by Visa or MasterCard SecureCode, Diners ProtectBuy, JCB-Card J/Secure or American Express SafeKey comprises two steps: authentication and payment. Multiexcerpt include SpaceWithExcerpt ENWORKEN MultiExcerptName Platform-Kurz3DS2Short1 PageWithExcerpt Wording
Following scheme illustrates the processes of a Server-to-Server-payment with 3-D Secure.
Communication for credit card payments with 3-D Secure via socket connection
Server-2-Server Integration
In the next phases there are three different cases in which
responses differ. The individual connection parameters can be found in the credit card payments section of the handbook. Multiexcerpt include SpaceWithExcerpt ENWORKEN MultiExcerptName Platform-Name3DS2Short2 PageWithExcerpt Wording
Case 1: Credit card not registered for 3-D Secure
initially contacts Visa or MasterCard, Diners, JCB or American Express Directory Server to determine whether the purchaser’s credit card is registered for Verified or SecureCode or SafeKey. Multiexcerpt include SpaceWithExcerpt ENWORK MultiExcerptName Platform-Name PageWithExcerpt Wording
Case 2 with Popup: Credit card registered for a 3-D Secure system
IMPORTANT NOTICE: We strongly recommend the use of the iFrame solution since MasterCard has revised the regulations. MasterCard prohibits the use of a popup. For this an excerpt from the regulations (Excerpt from: MasterCard® SecureCode™ Merchant Implementation):
“Inline window implementations, which have proven to virtually eliminate the issues caused by pop-up authentication windows, are required for all new merchant implementations and existing pop-up implementations must convert to inline windows.”
Server-2-Server Integration
If the credit card is registered for Verified or SecureCode, ProtectBuy, J/Secure or SafeKey,
returns the socket-connection HTML source code with a JavaScript function. This JavaScript function creates the connection to the bank with which the customer is authenticated by entering its password into a popup-window. The HTML source code with the JavaScript function Initiate3DSec() which Multiexcerpt include SpaceWithExcerpt ENWORKEN MultiExcerptName Platform-Name3DS2Short3 PageWithExcerpt Wording
sends to the shop must be embedded in the response page which the shop displays in the customer's browser. Multiexcerpt include SpaceWithExcerpt ENWORK MultiExcerptName Platform-Name PageWithExcerpt Wording
Notice: Please note that the use of a popup window can lead to problems with popup blockers in the customer's browser. Therefore case 3 describes an alternative in the form of an Inframe variant.
The following listing shows a response page in which the HTML code is embedded:
<HTML>
<HEAD>
<META http-equiv=Content-Type content="text/html; charset=unicode">
<SCRIPT language="javascript">
<!--
<Response excerpt from request: HTML with JavaScript>
//-->
</script>
</HEAD>");
<BODY onload="javascript:Initiate3DSec();">
<table><tr>
<td align="center"><font face="Verdana" size="-1"><b>Please identify yourself with 3-D Secure!</b></font></td>
</tr></table>");
</BODY>
</HTML>
Notice: You can also use this code if you only want to verify the identity of the card holder without making a credit card payment. Our Support team can set your account in a way that
can carry out just the authentication with Verified or SecureCode, ProtectBuy, J/Secure or SafeKey without payment (Authentication Hosting). Multiexcerpt include SpaceWithExcerpt ENWORK MultiExcerptName Platform-Name PageWithExcerpt Wording
After the customer has been authenticated with its bank, the bank's Access Control Server (ACS) requests the TermURL in the shop. In the case of this Request the ACS transfers the following parameters via GET (QueryString) to the TermURL of the shop: MID, PayID and TransID. The PARes parameter is transferred via POST.
Notice: The PAResponse parameter must be URL encoded but not Blowfish-encrypted since the content can include special characters.
The parameter must be transferred in whole via POST to the following URL:
direct3d.aspx Multiexcerpt include SpaceWithExcerpt ENWORK MultiExcerptName BaseURL PageWithExcerpt Wording
Notice: If you forward the PARes and MID of the ACS parameters please use the specified parameter name MerchantID, PAResponse for the direct3d.aspx page.
Case 3 without Popup: Credit card registered for a 3-D Secure system
Alternatively to the popup window the card holder can also carry out authentication with the bank in an iFrame variant; this avoids difficulties with popup blockers in the customer's browser. Provided the card is registered on the Directory Server,
returns the following parameters via the socket connection. Multiexcerpt include SpaceWithExcerpt ENWORK MultiExcerptName Platform-Name PageWithExcerpt Wording

Response parameters of Socket-connection for the Authentication Request
Example for correct processing of ACSURL and TermURL:
acsurl=a?b=c&d=e&pareq=f&termurl=g?PayID=h&TransID=i&MID=j
ACSURL: a?b=c&d=e
TermURL: g?PayID=h&TransID=i&MID=j
Notice: Please note in this process that data must sometimes be transferred directly from the bank network. Therefore e.g. the ACSURL parameter is not URL-encoded, although
uses other URL-encoded data. Multiexcerpt include SpaceWithExcerpt ENWORK MultiExcerptName Platform-Name PageWithExcerpt Wording
These parameters should be included as HIDDEN fields in an HTML page which posts itself to the ACS-URL. The following listing shows one such HTML page, in which the return parameters are embedded:
<HTML>
<HEAD>
<META http-equiv=Content-Type content="text/html; charset=unicode">
<A content="MSHTML 6.00.2800.1106" name=GENERATOR>

After the customer has been authenticated with its bank, the bank's Access Control Server (ACS) requests the TermURL in the shop. In the case of this Request the ACS transfers the following parameters via GET (QueryString) to the TermURL of the shop: MID, PayID and TransID (unencrypted). The PARes parameter is transferred unencrypted via POST.
Notice: The PAResponse parameter must be URL encoded but not Blowfish-encrypted since the content can include special characters.
The parameter must be transferred in whole via POST to the following URL:
