Additional Fields for Preauth Transactions

For Connecting Party

Note

Browser data for 3DS 2.X is gathered by ConnPay system on 3DS authentication stage. For some processing channels, however, the browser data and/or Connecting Party URL for 3DS challenge results must be provided in initial transaction request. Please contact Support manager to clarify if these parameters should be included in request parameters.
