Mastercard Secure Card on File

Keeping cardholder information secure as it is passed to the merchant has become a whole lot easier, thanks to Mastercard’s Secure Card on File (SCOF) system. Now merchants, payment service providers (PSPs) and commerce platforms can tokenise consumers’ primary account numbers (PANs) as well as existing PANs already on file, replacing them with unique tokens. These tokens can be used for eCommerce and in-app transactions, adding a layer of enhanced security and protecting cardholder payment information as it passes through the purchasing chain.

Optimize Your Cross-Border Ecommerce Payment Acceptance

Cross-border eCommerce payment acceptance opens up new opportunities for merchants to reach global markets – but it also presents challenges. Both merchants and consumers benefit from a smooth transaction process, and to enable this, merchants must be transparent about executing international transactions and also provide full and clear currency disclosure. Additional best practice would be pricing goods in the merchant’s local currency by default and then allowing customers see these prices in their local currency. It is also helpful to alert customers to any potential fees and taxes – clearly displaying information about the dynamic currency conversion that is used to calculate prices.
