STP Secure Travel Payments - Version 2 Payment API & 3DS Security


This only applies to clients who use STP Secure Travel Payments gateway.


3DS Security has now been introduced to all clients using STP, as advised by newsletters recently.  The enhanced measures will help protect against credit card fraud and chargebacks.


3DS is an authenticaton method that asks your customers to verify their identity with their card issuer [their bank] before finalising the payment.


When paying online, the customer will be sent a verification code to the cardholder's registered email address or phone number.


To ensure the highest level of security, we have enabled 3DS for all transactions made online via your gateway.  Please contact Bookit Support if you wish to change the level of security.

This only applies to clients who have the Bulk Refunds Add On activated to your Bookit console.  Please contact Bookit Support to discuss this feature.
