London, 21 May 2020 – Merchants are consistently challenged to ensure their businesses are protected from fraud, and now they have another challenge on the horizon. By December 2020, all European payment services providers and merchants must comply with the requirements of the revised Payment Services Directive and apply dual-factor authentication to electronic transactions. Do providers still have a window of opportunity to support merchants with their strong customer authentication implementations?

This report outlines the decision drivers surrounding European merchants’ adoption of EMV 3DS (3DS2) and fraud authentication solutions in the marketplace, how e-commerce executives are managing their digital security strategy, and what is driving their solution-buying behaviors. It is based on Aite Group’s early 2020 interview-based study of 40 merchants and six PSPs in the European market.
