American Express SafeKey® leverages the industry standard technology making it fast and easy to implement for Merchants, by enrolling through a 3DS Server (Merchant Plug-In – MPI). A seamless interaction between the 3DS Server (MPI), the Access Control Server (ACS) and the customer prevents unauthorized online use before it happens, by confirming the Card Member’s identity through a one-time passcode or other authentication method.
For a list of EMV 3DS approved SDK products, please see EMVCo website.
Please see ‘Resources’ section below for SafeKey Provider enrollment instructions.
Click to Pay is enabled by the EMV® Secure Remote Commerce (SRC) technical standard and allows industry players to create a more secure and consistent consumer checkout experience across digital channels, including mobile apps and browsers. American Express leverages the standard to provide Secure Remote Commerce Initiators (SRCis) with a consistent approach to easily connect to the American Express SRC System.
The American Express Token Service (AETS) connects Card Issuers, Merchants and Service Providers to enhance security for mobile and digital payments. AETS helps create a safe online and mobile payments environment for consumers by replacing a card’s primary account number (PAN) with a unique surrogate value that may be used to conduct payment transactions. Learn more about AETS here.
Through the foundational platform provided by AETS, payment credentials can be tokenized when Merchants provide the option to customers to save their cards-on-file for future online purchases or recurring payments. Learn more about Card-on-File Tokenization here.
