Overview

EMV 3-D Secure (EMV EDS), powered by CardinalCommerce (A Visa Solution), is a globally accepted authentication solution designed to make ecommerce transactions more secure in real time.  EMV 3DS provides an additional layer of security for ecommerce transactions prior to authorization while also helping to satisfy the requirements of PSD2 SCA.


It enables the exchange of data between the merchant, card issuer and, when necessary, the consumer, to validate that the transaction is being initiated by the rightful owner of the account.

How EMV 3DS Works

An authentication approval is returned to the merchant. The merchant then submits the authorization request.

Step 1 - Authentication Request

Merchant sends request with transaction and device data.

Step 2 - Risk-Based Authentication

RBA determines whether there is a need for a challenge.  Issuer determines if additional authentication is required.

  • Low Risk - Authentication occurs behind the scenes with no customer impact.
  • High Risk - Additional authentication required. Prompt for consumer challenge or decline transaction.

Step 3 - Authentication Required

If the transaction looks high risk, the issuer requests authentication, occurring to a much smaller portion of the transactions.
