The Tech Needed to Power Payments and Combat Criminals

Retailers can’t get paid if their payment processing doesn’t work. And if a transaction proves fraudulent, a retailer not only loses the value of the sale and the merchandise, but also risks losing the loyalty of a customer who was billed incorrectly for the purchase. Here’s a look at the essential components of payment processing that every online retailer should consider—no matter their size— in order to provide both a positive customer experience and to successfully collect payment.

A Trident of Change in Europe: Understanding DSM, PSD2 & GDPR

From the report, “The Digital Single Market, Revised Payment Services Directive and the General Data Protection Regulation are all complex and occasionally bewildering pieces of legislation, which aim to transform the European online market and improve services by promoting innovation. However, as they are yet to be fully implemented, organisations are understandably concerned about what they will look like in practice as opposed to on paper. Will global merchants from outside the region still be able to compete in Europe or will the new regulations be used as a form of protectionism? Will they fight fraud and chargebacks or unwittingly contribute to them? And how will Brexit – the unstable factor in the immediate future of the EU – impact all of this? As merchants and others wait in anticipation for the final stages of these three policy initiatives to take shape, The Chargeback Company is joined by contributors from ACI Worldwide and Kount to analyse the likely implications and opportunities for doing business in Europe from 2018.”

Solving The CNP False Decline Puzzle: Collaboration Is Key

From the report, “The bottom line is that good customers who transact online are suffering a bad purchasing experience – and this is doubly harmful to both card issuers and merchants. Cardholders may elect to abandon a purchase altogether, seek a different online store to minimize purchase friction, or pull out a different card – sending their go-to card to the back of wallet. This paper explores the size of the problem, explains the destructive impact on customers who are wrongly turned away, delves into why transactions are declined and reveals how the industry currently manages declines from both a card issuer and merchant perspective. Finally, it presents some possible approaches to the problem, including several pilot programs that Ethoca currently has underway with card issuers and merchants.”
