Security: SCA and PSD2

Online payments processed in European Economic Area (EEA) countries must meet the requirements of Strong Customer Authentication (SCA) according to the Second Payment Services Directive (PSD2).

Payrexx only supports the tokenized authentication method (CRYPTOGRAM_3DS) for Google Pay transactions. Most credit card issuers will accept this as an authentication method, where 3D Secure will not be required.
