Payer Authentication
Configuration

Payer Authentication
is the
Barclays
implementation of 3-D Secure. It prevents unauthorized card use and provides added protection from fraudulent chargeback activity.
Secure Acceptance
supports 3-D Secure 1.0 and 2.0.
Before you can use Payer Authentication, you must contact Customer Support to configure your account. Your merchant ID must be enabled for payer authentication. For more information about payer authentication, see the
Payer Authentication Developer Guides
.
For
Secure Acceptance
,
Barclays
supports these kinds of payer authentication:
  • American Express SafeKey
  • Diners ProtectBuy
  • Mastercard Identity Check
  • Visa Secure
For each transaction, you receive detailed information in the replies and in the transaction details page of
the
Smartpay Fuse Portal
. You can store this information for 12 months.
Barclays
recommends that you store the payer authentication data because you can be required to display this information as enrollment verification for any payer authentication transaction that you present again because of a chargeback.
Your merchant account provider can require that you provide all data in human-readable format.
The language used on each payer authentication page is determined by your issuing bank and overrides the locale you have specified. If you use the test card numbers for testing purposes the default language used on the payer authentication page is English and overrides the locale you have specified. See Test and View Transactions.
