Getting Started as an Issuer

Introduction

Visa’s vision is for Click to Pay to replace PAN key entry for e-commerce in much the same way as Chip and Contactless have replaced magnetic stripe at Point of Sale (POS). Delivering on this vision will significantly reduce the opportunities for fraud in e-commerce and deliver a significantly improved purchase experience for both consumers and merchants. Click to Pay brings the convenience and security of face-to-face Contactless payments to e-commerce by eliminating the need for consumers to enter card details manually at checkout and removing the reliance on PANs for e-commerce. This will mean utilizing Visa network tokens, with a secure cryptogram generated for every transaction, significantly reducing the opportunity for fraudsters to attempt to use stolen PAN details for e-commerce fraud.

To enhance this proposition, as an Issuer you can enable Click to Pay as a card level feature of the bank card (just like Contactless).
