3D Secure (3DS2)

The 3D Secure 2 protocol is activated automatically for at-risk transactions. The buyer is prompted to authenticate their payment via a notification from their bank or an SMS code. Successful 3DS transactions benefit from a liability shift.

Tokenization

Card data is tokenized via Braintree Hosted Fields before it reaches Sangho’s servers. Sangho only handles opaque tokens — never the card numbers (PAN).
