Visa Secure with EMV 3-D Secure Authentication

Visa pioneered the original 3-D Secure protocol more than 15 years ago to protect eCommerce transactions by providing an additional layer of identity verification before authorization. 3-D Secure (3DS) enables the exchange of data between the merchant, card issuer and, when necessary, the consumer, to validate that the transaction is being initiated by the rightful owner of the account.
