Authentication-only integration

In an authentication-only flow, you perform the 3D Secure 2 authentication independent of the payment authorisation flow. The transaction can go through either a frictionless or a challenge authentication flow. If the 3D Secure authentication is successful, you will get the authentication data that you will need to authorise the payment with another PSP or acquirer.

If after the authentication you decide to process the payment with us, we also provide a way so that you can continue with the payment authorisation.

3D Secure 1 authentication-only fallback

It is possible that the authentication falls back to redirecting the shopper to the issuer's site. Therefore, we recommend that your integration also supports the redirect flow.

Before you begin

Before you begin to integrate, make sure you have followed the Get started with Adyen guide to:

• Get an overview of the steps needed to accept live payments.
• Create your test account.

After you have created your test account:

1. Get your API Key. Save a copy as you'll need it for API calls you make to the Adyen payments platform.
2. Install one of our Libraries to connect with the Adyen APIs. For more information on these steps, refer to Get started with Adyen.
3. Read and understand the full guides for web-based, iOS 3D Secure 2 SDK, or Android 3D Secure 2 SDK integration.

Web-based authentication only

In web-based authentication-only flow, you need to submit a payment authentication request. The response will indicate if the authentication follows a frictionless or challenge flow, depending on issuer logic.

Submit a payment authentication request

Submit a payment request with a POST /authorise call. In addition to the required 3D Secure 2 objects, include the threeDSAuthenticationOnly parameter.

• threeDSAuthenticationOnly: true

Proceed to Get authentication data for the fields that you will need to pass on to your PSP or acquirer.

Get the 3D Secure 2 authenticated data

To authorise a payment with 3D Secure 2 authentication, you need the following data:

Field	Description
authenticationValue	The value for the 3D Secure 2 authentication session. The returned value is a Base64-encoded 20- or 21-byte array.
dsTransID	The unique transaction identifier assigned by the Directory Server to identify a single transaction.
eci	The Electronic Commerce Indicator returned from the schemes for the 3D Secure 2 payment session.

You can get this data from the last API response with AuthenticationFinished resultCode.

Alternatively, you can get the authentication data by using our /getAuthenticationResult endpoint.

In your /getAuthenticationResult request, specify:

• merchantAccount: The merchant account that was used to process the authentication.
• pspReference: The pspReference from the /payments/details response.

The /getAuthenticationResult response contains the required authentication data:

Optional: Provide additional acquirer-related data

Get the following information from your acquirer. These information are part of the 3D Secure 2 enrollment process between your acquirer and card schemes.

If you are unable to get these values from your acquirer, contact Support Team.

• acquirerBIN: Supported from API v49 and later. The acquiring BIN enrolled for 3D Secure 2. This string should match the value that you will use in the authorisation.

  If you are building a test integration, you can use the string 123456 in place of an actual acquirerBIN.

• acquirerMerchantID: Supported from API v49 and later. The authorisation MID enrolled for 3D Secure 2. This string should match the value that you will use in the authorisation.

  If you are building a test integration, you can use the string 123456 in place of an actual acquirerMerchantID.

• merchantName:Supported from API v49 and later. The merchant name that the issuer presents to the shopper if they get a challenge. We recommend to use the same value that you will use in the authorisation. Maximum length is 40 characters.

• mcc: Supported from API v49 and later. The four-digit Merchant Category Code registered with the scheme for the same acquirerMerchantID sent in the request.

• threeDSRequestorID: Required for Visa and Mastercard. Unique requestor ID assigned by the Directory Server when you enrol for 3D Secure 2.

• threeDSRequestorName: Required for Visa and Mastercard. Unique requestor name assigned by the Directory Server when you enrol for 3D Secure 2.

Submit an authentication request with a /authorise call containing the required 3D Secure 2 fields, the acquirer fields listed previously, and the threeDSAuthenticationOnly parameter:

• threeDSAuthenticationOnly: true

Optional: Authorise the payment with Adyen

If you decide to proceed with authorising the payment with Adyen, you can still switch and continue with a payment authorisation.

Make a POST /authorise3ds2 request from your server and include the following parameters: 

• threeDSAuthenticationOnly: false
• threeDS2Token: The threeDS2Token from the /authorise response if you received the AuthenticationNotRequired result code, or from the /authorise3ds2 response if you received the AuthenticationFinished result code.

• transStatus: Include this if you received the AuthenticationFinished result code.

  • For a browser-based integration, this is the transStatus from the base64url decoded CRes. If you did not receive a result to the threeDSNotificationURL within 10 minutes, assume that something went wrong or the shopper aborted the transaction. In this case, send transStatus: U to complete the authentication process.
  • For an app-based integration, this is the value generated by the SDK.

Sample request after completing an authentication

{
    "merchantAccount": "YOUR_MERCHANT_ACCOUNT",
    "threeDS2Result": {
        "transStatus": "Y"
    },
    "threeDSAuthenticationOnly": false,
    "threeDS2Token": "BQABAQBPCQZ98WKh3v7qGnBlUMGClVzDolIjs8w/8L64WIAqaOGZipbZod7n+E=..."
}

Sample request if authentication was not required for the transaction

{
    "merchantAccount": "YOUR_MERCHANT_ACCOUNT",
    "threeDSAuthenticationOnly": false,
    "threeDS2Token": "BQABAQBPCQZ98WKh3v7qGnBlUMGClVzDolIjs8w/8L64WIAqaOGZipbZod7n+E=..."
}

Response

You'll receive Authorised as the resultCode if the payment was successful.

Authentication data expiry

Authentication data and cryptograms expire depending on card schemes. This means that you can no longer use the authentication data after it expires.

Card scheme	Cryptogram validity
Amex	45 days
CUP	90 days
Mastercard	30 days. Starting from 2020, Mastercard will support non-expiring cryptograms but the expiry will depend on the issuing bank's implementation.
Visa	1 year

Testing 3D Secure 2

Before going live, use the following card numbers and credentials to test your integration.

We recommend testing each Card Type.

To test how your integration handles different 3D Secure 2 authentication scenarios, use our test card numbers.

All our test cards use the following expiry dates and security codes:

Expiry Date	CVC/CVV	CID
03/2030	737	7373

When prompted for 3D Secure 2 text challenges, use the following credentials:

• For mobile, use password: 1234
• For web, use password: password

Card Type	Card Number
Cartes Bancaires	4035 5014 2814 6300
Maestro 1	5000 5500 0000 0029
Mastercard	5454 5454 5454 5454
Visa	4917 6100 0000 0000

¹ This card doesn't require a CVC.

When you make a payment request with these cards, you'll receive the following result codes depending on your integration:

• RedirectShopper: You'll receive this result code if you are using the Redirect authentication.
• IdentifyShopper: You'll receive this result code if you are using the Native authentication.
• ChallengeShopper: You might get this result code after you submit the 3D Secure 2 device fingerprinting result in a Native authentication, indicating a challenge flow.

To test the web-based flow where the device fingerprinting step is skipped (because the issuer's ACS has not configured a threeDSMethodURL), and you get a ChallengeShopper resultCode immediately after submitting the payment request, use the following card:

Card Type	Card Number
Visa	4212 3456 7891 0006

To test the frictionless flow, specify in your payment request:

• amount.value: 12002

App-based integration

To test different authentication scenarios for app-based integration, use the following test cards:

Card number	Authentication scenario
5201 2855 6567 2311	Basic text authentication
5201 2874 9905 2008	Basic single select
5201 2815 9233 1633	Basic multi select
5201 2888 2269 6974	Basic out-of-band (OOB) authentication
5201 2895 0084 3268	HTML OOB authentication
5201 2861 5377 1465	App single select then text authentication

Other scenarios

Card number	Scenario
4199 3500 0000 0002	The card is not enrolled for 3D Secure transactions,
5201 2829 9900 5515	There was a technical error.
