Across the world, we've been implementing D-Payment Application Specification (D-PAS)—our smart-card solution for contact and contactless payments.
The three-digit CID provides an additional layer of security. It ensures the cardholder possesses the card at the time of purchase.
To limit the risk of fraud on card-not-present transactions, we require any merchants to capture the cardholder's address for verification.
Merchants requesting an AVS are also sent an ACN, which indicates whether the cardholder billing address has changed in the last 45 days.
A unique value is encoded on the magnetic stripe of the card; the issuer provides it as protection against counterfeit cards.
If you suspect fraud during a card-present transaction, phone in a Code 10 authorization request to alert the issuer and protect the cardholder.
To minimize the risk of fraud and protect profits, we require authorization on all card-present and card-not-present transactions.
If systems are down, we help participating issuers provide authorizations for their merchants.
