Segpay 3DSecure Implementation Guide
Simplified Process
This guide outlines a simplified approach to adding 3D Secure, an additional layer of security for online card payments, using Segpay's Merchant Plug-In (MPI). In this scenario, the MPI handles the secure authentication process, managing browser interactions and cardholder prompts, which streamlines integration for merchants. By following these instructions, you'll enhance payment security without having to manage the complex authentication process yourself.
The included JavaScript code will handle the necessary steps, making it easier for you to protect both your business and your customers from fraud. Follow the steps below to implement this simplified process on your payment page.
Step 1: Generate JWT
A JSON Web Token (JWT) must be generated in server-side code to facilitate secure communication with the Segpay MPI. JWTs are an open, industry standard (RFC-7519), method for signing and encrypting payloads between two parties.
The JWT required by the Segpay MPI utilizes shared key HS256 encryption. Please see the official JWT website https://jwt.io/ for more information and to find the library for your language of choice.
The payload of the initial JWT needed on the paypage consists of:
JSON
{
'MerchantCode': '<Segpay Provided Merchant Identifier>',
'OrderDetails': {
'OrderNumber': '<unique order number>'
}
}
MerchantCode is an identifier provided by Bill1st that will appear in the payload. This value will also be used as the issuer when encrypting and signing the JSON web token.
OrderNumber is a unique identifier specified by the merchant. This identifier can be of any format up to 50 alpha-numeric characters but may not be reused. This identifier is used to prevent malicious reuse of intercepted tokens.
Step 2: Insert Segpay Javascript Library
The Segpay MPI Javascript library must be inserted into the payment page:
Step 3: Initialize Bill1st Javascript Library
Once the library is included, it must be initialized using the MerchantCode and server-generated JWT.
This should occur before the cardholder interacts with the page, it is suggested to perform this initialization during the document.ready event.
To create a 3D secure object:
JavaScript
var Secure = new Secure3D();
Secure.logging(true);
Secure.setup( ‘<merchant code>’, ‘<jwt>’ );
Secure.enableBinDetection('CardNumberFieldID'); # where CardNumber is the ID of the field accepting the Credit Card Number
JWT Notes
An example of how to generate the JWT in php:
PHP
use Lcobucci\JWT\Builder;
use Lcobucci\JWT\Signer\Hmac\Sha256;
$jwt = (new Builder())->setIssuer($merchantcode)
->setIssuedAt($currentTime) // Configures the time that the token was issued (iat claim)
->setExpiration($currentTime + $expireTime) // Configures the expiration time of the token (exp claim). Suggest at least 15 minutes, no more than 2 hours
->set('Payload', $order) // Configures a new claim, called "Payload", containing the OrderDetails
->set('ObjectifyPayload', true) // Required to be true
->sign(new Sha256(), $secureKey) // Sign with API Key
->getToken();
The secureKey value will be provided by Segpay Support Team (along with your MerchantCode value).
Step 4: Subscribe to Events
The authentication flow relies on Javascript events to inform the caller of the results. This requires the merchant to add event handlers for two events. This should be done AFTER initialization of the library but before the cardholder has submitted payment. See Appendix A for details on the object passed into this function.
JavaScript
Secure.on('payments.validated', function(data,jwt,callback) {
// Event fired to signify the authentication flow is complete
// variable data contains authentication results
// continue with submitting payment info to merchant backend
});
Secure.on('payments.noAction', function(data) {
// Event fired to signify the card does not require further authentication
// variable data contains authentication results
// continue with submitting payment info to merchant backend
});
Step 5: Perform Authentication
The page is now ready to perform authentication using the Bill1st MPI. Prior to submitting the payment information to the Bill1st Gateway, the authentication API must be called to interact with the cardholder, typically via a button click or a form submission. This is done by creating an order object (Appendix B) with the payment information and calling Secure.do3D with that object:
JavaScript
var order ={
"Consumer":{
"Email1":"email@test.com", // EITHER Email1 OR BillingAddress.Phone REQUIRED
"BillingAddress":{
"Phone": "8005551212", // EITHER Email1 OR BillingAddress.Phone REQUIRED
"FullName":"John Smith", // EITHER FullName
"FirstName":"John", // OR FirstName & LastName REQUIRED
"LastName":"Smith",
"Address1":"123 Main St", // REQUIRED
"City":"Anytown", // REQUIRED
"State":"MI",
"PostalCode":"40183", // REQUIRED
"CountryCode":"US"
},
"Account":{
"AccountNumber":“4111111111111111”, // REQUIRED
"ExpirationMonth":12, // REQUIRED
"ExpirationYear":2019, // REQUIRED
"CardCode":123, // REQUIRED
"NameOnAccount":"JOHN SMITH"
}
},
"OrderDetails":{
"Amount":"39.99", // REQUIRED
"CurrencyCode":"840" // REQUIRED, 3-digit ISO-4217 value
}
};
Secure.do3D( order );
Authorization
After authentication has occurred (events payments.validated
or payments.noAction
have fired), the payment information is ready for submission to the Segpay gateway for authorization of the transaction. Please see the Gateway Integration Guide for more information on the authorization gateway.
Only the 3D-Secure specifics are detailed here:
Parameter | Description |
---|---|
ThreeDService | Indicates the source of the data to be provided. Should be set to “CARDINAL” as the Bill1st gateway has standardized on the data as provided by the Cardinal MPI. |
ThreeDSecure | Contains the “data” object from the payments.validated event in javascript. Value is JSON object that is then Base64 encoded. |
SecureGrandFathered | Send a value of 1 to indicate this transaction is merchant-initiated and should be considered grandathered in (original transaction occurred before PSD regulations went into effect). Send a value of 0 or no value to indicate it is not grandathered. |
SecureTransactionID | Used for merchant-initiated transactions to indicate the previous transaction where Secure 3D authentication was performed. Send the Bill1st TransactionID from a previous transaction. |

PSD2 and Strong Customer Authentication (SCA)
PSD2 is the Revised Payment Services Directive, a new EU regulation for electronic and non-cash payments. This version introduces the requirement for implementing Strong Customer Authentication (SCA) to make online payments more secure and reduce fraud.
SCA is required when the business and the cardholder’s bank are located within the European Economic Area (EEA). There are, however, some out-of-scope transactions and exemptions.
If you want to send parameters to disable the automatic application of exemptions by both the Segpay gateway and the acquiring/issuing banks, use the following:
-
SCAExemptionOverride - If this parameter is activated with a value of "Y", then no automatic exemptions will be used, and the value sent in SCAExemption will always be applied.
-
SCAExemption – See Table below for values and definitions:
SCAExemption Value | Description |
---|---|
LowValue | Transactions under €30 are exempt from SCA. If the total amount attempted on the card without strong authentication is higher than €100, or if five consecutive transactions have been conducted without SCA, SCA is required. |
RiskAnalysis |
The ability for a payment to be considered low risk is based on the average fraud levels of the card issuer and acquirer processing the transaction: + 0.13% to exempt transactions below €100 |
Recurring | Recurring transactions with a fixed amount are exempt beginning with the 1 st rebill. Only the initial transaction requires SCA. |
TrustedBeneficiary | Customers can assign businesses to a whitelist of trusted beneficiaries. Whitelisted merchants are exempt from SCA. |
MIT | Payments made with saved cards when the customer is not present in the checkout flow may qualify as merchant-initiated transactions. You need to authenticate the card on the first payment and make an agreement with the customer to charge their card at a later time. If a transaction is merchant-initiated, both fixed and variable payments will be exempt from SCA. |
AnonymousCard | A transaction processed using an anonymous card can only be identified by the issuing bank, not by the customer. |
CorporateCard | When the transaction is initiated by a legal person, for example, a business rather than a consumer, and it is processed through a secured dedicated payment protocol. |
Example of the SCA Exemption parameters
Below is an example of the optional SCA Exemption parameters that can be sent in your auth request to the gateway:
Issuer Mandated Authentication
During an authorization request, an issuer may decide that strong authentication is required even though it did not make that determination during the authentication/lookup phase of 3D Secure. When this occurs, the Bill1st gateway will respond with a 3009 - Strong Authentication Required response code. The merchant should detect this has occurred and enter an alternative flow for 3D Secure which forces authentication as follows:
var order ={
"Consumer":{
"Email1":"email@test.com", // REQUIRED
"BillingAddress":{
"FullName":"John Smith", // EITHER FullName
"FirstName":"John", // OR FirstName & LastName REQUIRED
"LastName":"Smith",
"Address1":"123 Main St", // REQUIRED
"City":"Anytown", // REQUIRED
"State":"MI",
"PostalCode":"40183", // REQUIRED
"CountryCode":"US"
},
"Account":{
"AccountNumber":“4111111111111111”, // REQUIRED
"ExpirationMonth":12, // REQUIRED
"ExpirationYear":2019, // REQUIRED
"CardCode":123, // REQUIRED
"NameOnAccount":"JOHN SMITH"
}
},
"OrderDetails":{
"Amount":"39.99", // REQUIRED
"CurrencyCode":"840" // REQUIRED, 3-digit ISO-4217 value
}
};
// Normal flow:
// Secure.do3D( order );
// Authentication mandated flow:
Secure.forceAuthentication( order );
Advanced Features
If more control over the authentication process is desired, the merchant may perform additional steps to determine what authentication steps will be required BEFORE they are executed in the cardholder’s browser.
An additional parameter may be provided to the Secure.do3D
method providing a callback function to run upon completion of the lookup step in the authentication process. The interpret lookup function can be used to take whatever additional steps the merchant may desire. When it is desired to continue the authentication flow, simply call Secure.continue
.
For example, to perform authentication ONLY when the card is enrolled in Secure 3D 2.0 or greater:
JavaScript
Secure.do3D(order, function(lookupresponse) {
if (lookupresponse.ThreeDVersion >= 2) {
Secure.continue();
}
};);
