Hi There,

We have now passed the deadline provided and our teams are preparing to switch over on Monday 18 July 2022.

 

We wish to advise that your account is still viewed as “non-compliant” and wish to bring to your attention that your transactions will fail from next week if this change has not been implemented. Unfortunately, we are unable to prevent this change due to the security risk.


Please see below communications that encapsulate previous mailers sent out on these changes needed:


Dear Merchant,

 

You are receiving this mail as there are some important actions required by your Developers with regards to the PASA (Payment Association of South Africa) and PCI (Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard) mandated switch over to 3D Security 2 Standard - More on this below:

 

At Peach Payments, we strive to continuously provide world-class, leading payments infrastructure that offers a secure and seamless experience for our merchants and their customers.

 

One of the major initiatives that we are currently undertaking (in line with global payment standards) is switching over our merchants to the VISA and Mastercard mandated 3D Secure Version 2 authentication flow.

 

This mandated switchover requires our merchants who make use of our Recurring Payment/Card Storage functionality to add an additional parameter to their initial payment requests.

 

One of the major initiatives that we are currently undertaking is switching over our merchants to the 3D Secure 2 standard, as part of a global roll-out.

  • To find out more about 3DS 2 and why switching to this standard will add considerable value to your business, please have a look at this support page we have put together for you: What is 3DSecure 2? 

 

After a technical assessment of your integration with Peach, we observed that extra technical work will be required on your side for this switchover to be completed. You will need to add a few extra parameters to your integration in order to handle 3DS Secure version 2 (Communications about these changes were likely sent out prior to you coming on board with us).

The changes that need to be made can be found on this link here: https://peachpayments.docs.oppwa.com/tutorials/threeDSecure/3d-secure-2.0-guide#Technicalintegrationguide-OPPServertoServer

Everything up until the section “Fields Required for 3D Secure 2” needs to be added.

Then, from the section “Fields Required for 3D Secure 2”, every parameter marked with “Mandatory”, needs to be included. The “Required unless market or regional mandate restricts sending this information” are recommended and we advise that they are included, but are not mandatory.

Section on “Merchant related fields configured in the gateway” and thereafter, you do not need to worry about - they are handled on our end.

Once completed please let us know so we can activate 3Ds2 on your account to push the traffic as 3Ds2

Please also note the following important changes required if you have not done so already:


What action is required from You/The Merchant?

 

 

Deadline - while the deadline is June 2022, the longer the merchant takes to implement, the higher likelihood of receiving chargebacks. 


Thank You for using Peach Payments as a Payment Gateway and please do not hesitate to reach out to us if you have any questions.
