This will provide a new level of protection for <\/span><b>to strengthen the security of all your transactions<\/b> <b>and prevent fraud, theft or loss of credentials in non-attendance payment transactions.<\/b><b><br \/>\n<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In the midst of a record boom in trade history due to the COVID-19 pandemic, a regulatory change is approaching that will change the process of non-attendance purchases. Although these directives were adopted by the European Commission in 2015, <\/span><b>entered into force in Spain in 2021.<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>What are the benefits of the PSD2 Directive?<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><b><br \/>\n<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The purpose of this new regulation is to make the process of buying and selling via the Internet much safer, something that will benefit all the actors of the transaction.<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The fear of being cheated is one of the main entry barriers that still affects e-commerce and keeps many people away from this type of operations. For this, <\/span><b>This enhanced security of transactions is expected not only to help protect buyers, but could also result in increased sales for merchants.<\/b><b><br \/>\n<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>What will be the changes for users?<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Perhaps the most important news for users starting this year is the double authentication process. What is it? <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Authentication processes are used <\/span><b>to verify that a customer is really the person he says he is<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. Double authentication or enhanced authentication requires the payment service to use at least two separate data, known as authentication factors. These factors <\/span><b>can be of 3 types<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Knowledge: something the customer knows, such as a password or PIN.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Possession: something the customer owns, such as a debit card or a mobile phone.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Inherence: something inherent to the customer, such as his fingerprints.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Some of these factors have already started to become recurrent: payment cards and PIN are used to make physical payments, a code received by SMS to make an online purchase, or fingerprints to unlock your phone and access an app.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In 2021 these &#8220;second checks&#8221;, which will be added to the normal compilation of the card data, will be mandatory.<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br
