Mastercard: SCA Update for EU Retailers


Attention Online retailers in Europe.
A new payments standard, known as SCA or Strong Customer Authentication will come into force in September 2019.

Mastercard research shows that up to 75% of e-commerce merchants in Europe are potentially unaware of this coming into effect. SCA is a new regulatory requirement that is designed to help retailers and issuers make digital payments more secure. The challenge is to create or keep a frictionless check-out experience for online shoppers.

SCA will allow for biometric technology and dynamic passwords to create a more secure and improved online shopping experience.
Mastercard’s Identity Check is fully compliant with SCA requirements and facilitates shopping experiences we can all trust, allowing us to securely pay online using features such as our fingerprint.

To find out more on Identity Check visit the Mastercard website here: https://newsroom.mastercard.com/eu/
