Trintech launches PayWare Merchant MPI

Trintech Group Plc, a leading provider of transaction reconciliation and payment infrastructure solutions, launched PayWare Merchant MPI, a powerful 3D Secure ecommerce authentication solution for merchants, providing secure Internet card payment transactions between the cardholder and card issuer. Trintechs robust and powerful offering enables Internet merchants to migrate to a 3D Secure environment by providing a secure and easy-to-deploy merchant plug-in (MPI) solution on their existing online authorization solution. With the growth in Internet card payments, fraud on the Internet is rising steadily over many years. The implementation of chip-based payment cards, coupled with PIN verification, is likely to add to this problem as fraud migrates away from retail environments to the Internet as fraudsters and criminals start to target less secure environments. MPI works seamlessly with PayWare Merchant, Trintechs online authorization solution to provide a complete card payment processing solution for Internet merchants. Visa and MasterCards 3D secure services known as Verified by VISA(TM) and MasterCard SecureCode(TM), work with PayWare Merchant MPI, which is the module that enables the card issuer to validate the customer, prior to completing the transaction. The card schemes offer attractive incentives for merchants opting to accept 3D Secure transaction by offering protection against the liability for fraudulent transactions. Benefits for merchants adopting PayWare Merchant MPI include accepting payments safely and securely, reduced fraud and charge backs even when customers are not enrolled in the schemes. Implementation will also lead to improved consumer confidence in online transactions and the increase in internet sales by promoting safe online purchasing.
