Manage merchant information for 3D Secure authentication
3D Secure authentication needs to be performed for a "merchant".
PCI Booking recognizes three scenarios that our customers will come across regarding merchant information:
- The customer is simply collecting the card details on behalf of a different entity (for example, in the scenario of an OTA capturing the card and passing it to the hotel) and then that different entity processes the payment outside of the PCI Booking system.
- The customer is merchant that captures the card details and then processes a charge (for example, in the case of an online store which captures and charges the card).
- The customer is capturing the card details on behalf of a different entity but also processes the charge on the card on behalf of that different entity (for example, in the scenario of a PMS provider allowing the hotel to capture the card details and then process a payment all within the PMS system).
Customer only collecting card details
In most cases in this scenario, our customer would not be set up as a merchant with a payment gateway and so PCI Booking offers our own merchant information to be used for the 3D Secure authentication (Please note, with our merchant information, you will only be able to perform 3DS authentication on Visa and Mastercard cards).
There are no additional steps needed to use the PCI Booking merchant information.
Customer collecting and charging card details
In this scenario, simply provide us with your merchant information from your payment gateway and these will be configured in the PCI Booking system to override the default PCI Booking merchant information.
Please use this form to submit your merchant information.
Customer collecting and charging card details on behalf of someone else
In this scenario, simply provide us with a list of the merchant information of all of the possible merchants you would like to use.
Once configured in PCI Booking, simply provide the additional merchantName
parameter in the card capture form.
Please create a spreadsheet of the fields listed in this form and the information for all of your merchants. Once completed, send the spreadsheet to our support team.
