Are you compliant with PSD2?

Having a Strong Customer Authentication (SCA) is required for all electronic payment services in order to make payments more secure and to improve consumer protection against fraud. A SCA requires means of authentication that uses at least two of the following elements:

  • Something the customer has

    Such as their smartphone and the installed itsme app.

  • Something the customer is

    Confirm an action with biometrics such as fingerprint or FaceID.

  • Something the customer knows

    Such as the personal itsme code that has 5 numbers and only they know.
