Token Authentication Service for Click to Pay
Overview
Click to Pay with Mastercard payment passkey authentication improves the efficiency and security of transactions. This service enables fast, seamless payment processing while using advanced security measures to help prevent fraud and scams. The Mastercard payment passkeys protect sensitive payment details and biometric information by ensuring they are not shared with third parties during transactions. This security model increases consumer trust and helps merchants meet stringent regulatory requirements without requiring additional Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) implementations.
ARC Pay Gateway offers you an end-to-end solution to provide Click to Pay with Mastercard Passkeys. You can do this through Hosted Session or Checkout using Mastercard payment passkeys through TAS.
The following are the prerequisites for your respective TAS integrations:
- For Hosted Session, you must integrate the Click to Pay Gateway SDK and use API version 84 or later.
- For Checkout, you must have API version 63 or later and for new Checkout integrations, the latest API version is recommended.
Prerequisites
To use TAS for Click to Pay, contact your payment service provider to ensure that:
- You must have 3DS2 privileges and configurations for the Mastercard scheme.
- You must have Checkout privileges and configurations.
- Your country must have Click to Pay enabled. For more information on regional availability, see Click to Pay region availability.
- Ensure that your country is included in the list of TAS available countries.
