3D secure with iVeri
- High: 3D secure – If a merchant is deemed high risk, the acquiring bank can set merchants on this level. Merchants that want lowest possible risk can also opt for this level.
- Medium: 3D secure/attempted- This option gives merchants a broader reach in the cards they can accept. When enabled, the liability is shifted to the card issuer.
- Low: Secure Channel – If there is no 3D secure in place, the merchant and acquiring bank take on all the risk
