If you are using our JSWeb Opayo (formerly known as Sagepay) Integration Module with your Zencart website, this article is of great importance to you and your e-commerce website. You will probably have been receiving messages from Opayo about the SCA Deadline on 14 March 2022. SCA (Strong Customer Authentication) implementation involves upgrading all credit card systems from 3DS to 3DS2. E-commerce websites must “add an extra layer of identity confirmation before the user pays so that transactions meet the SCA rules” (source: UK Gov).

Our team of website professionals can tell you this affects both you and your business because payment methods for websites must meet these standards and submit the required information to allow the transaction to complete. E-commerce websites must upgrade or they will see an increase in failed transactions. The final implementation of 3DS2 has been delayed for a variety of reasons, including Covid-19, but the end is now nigh for the old 3DS.

In order to implement 3DS2 you need our most recent edition (v22.3.8) of the plugin which we have just completed testing (our apologies – some late changes by Opayo). This plugin is only guaranteed to function correctly on Zencart 1.5.7 or later – it has not been, and will not be, tested on out-dated versions.
