Fraud Risk Management Solutions

Based on the Card Associations’ 3-D Secure™ technology, cGate®SecureVerify provides verification to the merchant that the buyer is the authorized owner of a card account, thereby reducing the number of unauthorized payments, resulting in fewer chargebacks. First Atlantic Commerce can offer 3-D Secure™ as part of our gateway services or as a standalone service for other banks and gateways. The advantage of 3-D Secure only is that the merchant has the ability to identify the enrolment status of the cardholder and their issuing bank prior to the payment authorisation. This allows merchants to predetermine chargeback liability shift rights on the pending transaction before it is authorised and settled. Key Features. Payment Tokenization and PCI DSS Solutions - First Atlantic Commerce.

What is Payment Tokenization?

Payment Tokenization and PCI DSS Solutions - First Atlantic Commerce

Tokenization is the process of replacing sensitive card data with a unique identifier (a token) that retains all of the essential information without compromising its security. The token cannot be mathematically reversed and is stored in First Atlantic Commerce’s payment gateway infrastructure. The tokens support all payment models including authorization, capture and settlement, recurring and subscription billing and partial captures. By employing FAC’s tokenization solution, merchants can move their customer’s credit card information out of their own environment. Tokenization of data not only mitigates the potential impact of a security breach, but reduces the costs and scope of PCI. PCI DSS Tokenization FAC’s tokenization service is a Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS) compliant solution that allows merchants to store their customer’s card details on our platform.
