False Declines in Online Payments: Frustration
Read Time 1 mins | Written by: Finartz Team
False declines. For the ecommerce merchant, they can be a never-ending source of frustration. False declines represent good transactions (meaning would-have-been sales) that are declined due to suspicion of fraud. Simply put, they are valid transactions that are incorrectly rejected. Missing a good sale because of a false decline eats into profits. But here’s the bigger problem.
But for the merchant and issuer, it’s not easy either. Becoming a security expert and tracking down false declines is not what their focus should be. But there’s an answer. To help reduce false declines, it all starts with authentication. EMV® 3-D Secure provides merchants and issuers with an additional layer of security prior to authorization that helps reduce false declines and fraud and ultimately, increase approvals.
