Feature Update
Safer Payments with 3D Secure (3DS)

We’ve added an extra layer of security to card payments with 3D Secure (3DS) across all platforms, helping protect transactions and reduce fraud.

What this means for you:

More secure card payments with an added verification step
Reduced risk of fraudulent transactions and chargebacks
Better protection through bank verification (when applicable)
Applies across Website, Customer Portal, and POS transactions

Customers may now see a quick verification step (such as OTP or banking app approval) during checkout. Once completed, payments will continue as usual.

A safer way to pay, with minimal impact on the checkout experience.

Important Notes

  • This update is automatically applied to all clients

  • The verification step may not appear on every transaction (depends on bank/card rules)

  • If verification fails, the payment may be declined or require a retry

Current Limitations

  • 3DS cannot be enabled/disabled per client at this stage

  • No configuration available yet via the dashboard

  • Per-client control is planned for a future update
