Device Data

The card issuer uses Device Data Collection (DDC) to fingerprint the customer's device. Along with the risk data in theverified paymentrequest, it's used by the issuer to decide if a challenge is required or if the authentication can be frictionless (no challenge displayed to the customer).

Device Data Collection (DDC)

Once you have the JWT, URL and BIN you can create and submit the DDC form.

A SessionId representing this collection is then used as part of the risk analysis by the issuer following theDevice Data Request.

Device Data Collection form

Here's an example of how you would set-up the DDC form in an iframe.

  1. Create a hidden iframe and set the src attribute with the URL of the page that will POST the DDC form. This URL should contain in query string parameters the deviceDataCollection.jwt, deviceDataCollection.bin and deviceDataCollection.url as those will be used in the DDC form.

    Copied!
    <iframe height="1" width="1" style="display: none;" src="replace-this-with-the-url-of-your-page-that-posts-the-ddc-form"></iframe>
  2. Create and host the page that POSTs the DDC form.

    <html>
    <head>
    </head>
    <body>
    <!-- Using your preferred programming language, set the 'action' attribute with the value of the query string parameter containing the 'deviceDataCollection.url' from the device data initialization response -->
    <form id="collectionForm" name="devicedata" method="POST" action="https://ddcUrl.example.com">
    
    <!-- Using your preferred programming language, set the 'value' attribute with the value of the query string parameter containing the 'deviceDataCollection.bin' from the device data initialization response -->
      <input type="hidden" name="Bin" value="555555" />
    
    
    <!-- Using your preferred programming language, set the 'value' attribute with the value of the query string parameter containing the 'deviceDataCollection.jwt' from the device data initialization response -->
      <input type="hidden" name="JWT" value="eyJ0eXAiOiJKV1QiLCJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiJ9.eyJPcmdVbml0SWQiOiJPcmdVbml0IiwiaXNzIjoiYXBpSWQiLCJleHAiOjE1NjI5MjMzNDYsImlhdCI6MTU2MjkyMzQwNiwianRpIjoiYTAzMWVhOGEtN2E0Zi00YTQwLWI1NjMtOTUzMzYzMzVhZGNmIn0.0IK74OIXBxFsxqeOURJz1TFnz14ZTbFJTdTWo9cHUJQ" />
    
    </form>
    
    <script>
      window.onload = function() {
        document.getElementById('collectionForm').submit();
    }
    </script>
    </body>
    </html>

Device Data Collection postMessage

Once the DDC form is submitted and is successfully sent to the card issuer, you are notified via apostMessageevent.

For security, verify the sender's identity using the postMessage origin property as detailedhere.

An example postMessage response:

Copied!
{
  "MessageType": "profile.completed",
  "SessionId": "0_3XXXXXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXXXXXXX6b5",
  "Status": true
}
KeyValue
messageTypeprofile.completed
SessionIdUUID, not present or undefined
Status
  • true - Use the SessionId value in deviceData.collectionReference as part of thedevice data request
  • false - SessionId is empty. Either retry DDC or send the device data request without the deviceData.collectionReference.

The DDC call typically takes 1-2 seconds, depending on the latency between the customer's device, the Cardinal servers and, in part, the type of device data collection performed by the different issuers. The 3DS specification has the maximum response time at 10 seconds.

Device Data Request

Submit the sessionId so 3DS authentication can take place.

Note: If no value is provided the authentication falls back to 3DS1.

3DS Responses

If the authentication is frictionless the payment will be attempted automatically. For other cases you will get the responses below:

To understand what these outcomes mean and how to reproduce them for testing purposes seetesting.

Challenge display

If a challenge outcome is returned you must display the issuers challenge page so the customer can authenticate.

Create and submit the Challenge form

Create a self submitting form within an iframe to display the issuers challenge screen. Use the following parameters from the 3DS response:

  • challenge.reference
  • challenge.url
  • challenge.jwt

The content within the iframe is from the issuing bank. The bank performs an identity check on your customer.

Optional MD field

Pass data specific to your checkout session and it will be echoed back in the challenge.returnUrl originally provided in theverified payment request. This could for example be a checkout sessionId. Any value provided must be URL encoded with a maximum of 1024 characters.

Challenge form

Once you have the JWT and URL you can create and submit the Challenge form.

Here's an example of how you would set-up the challenge form in an iframe.

  1. Create an iframe and set the src attribute with the URL of the page that will POST the Challenge form. This URL should contain in query string parameters the challenge.jwt, challenge.url and optionally MD as those will be used in the Challenge form.

    Copied!
    <iframe height= "400" width= "390" src="replace-this-with-the-url-of-your-page-that-posts-the-challenge-form"></iframe>

    The size you specify for the iframe depends on whether you have provided a challenge.windowSize in theverified payment request.

  2. Create and host the page that POSTs the Challenge form.

    Copied!
     

Note: If you get a 400 response on POST of the challenge form ensure:

  • The JWT has not expired (10 minutes)
  • Element/form data names are upper case e.g. JWT as shown in the example

Challenge returnUrl

Once the issuer challenge is complete there is a POST to the challenge.returnUrl (you provide in theverified payments request). This should go to your backend where you can retrieve any of the form data, initiate the challengeReference request and display a page in the iframe depending on the outcome.

Form data in returnUrl POST:

  • TransactionId - same value as challenge.reference from the challenge response and used in thechallenge request.
  • MD - If included as part of thechallenge form.

Challenge Reference

Once the challenge form has been completed, you must make a request to verify the result of the challenge form.

POST your request to our verifiedPayments:challengeReference action link received in your verified payments response if the outcome is challenged.
