We explore how merchants are now leveraging 3DS Data-Share-Only (DSO) transactions to secure reduced interchange fees. Evidence of 3DS adoption appears in the data: 3DS volumes on the Arcot Network rose between 100% and 160% year-over-year in just one week. We dive into why more data leads to better issuer decisioning, higher approval and authorization rates, and a significant reduction in chargebacks - citing real-world results like the 6% chargeback drop seen in the Square case study. AI and the Arcot Smart Ruleset are becoming essential tools for issuers to defend against increasingly sophisticated fraudsters using LLMs to target payment vulnerabilities. Tune into this podcast to hear how the shift from using 3DS for high-risk transaction volumes to using it as a protocol for data-sharing is creating a more secure, efficient, and profitable landscape for both merchants and issuers.</itunes:summary><description>In this episode, we dive into Visa’s new Data Contribution Authentication Program (DCAP) and why it marks a "step change" for the 3-D Secure (3DS) ecosystem in the US and beyond.

Arcot shares these insights -- from emerging global fraud trends down to granular, peer-to-peer benchmarking -- to empower smarter payment routing and better outcomes. Today, merchants routing transactions directly to authorization without accompanying data face staggering 15-20% decline rates. Fresh off the heels of MRC Vegas, Arcot is championing U.S. "data-only" adoption to fix this. The continuous flow of rich data strengthens risk-based authentication and fraud defenses, powers the automated fraud savings of The Arcot Smart Ruleset, improves authorization rates, and ultimately makes digital shopping smarter and safer for everyone.

Arcot's latest pilot with Square exemplifies what’s possible when there is smarter data-sharing between merchants and issuers. Meaningfully higher approvals without added risk, thanks to intelligent routing and high-quality data upstream.&#13;
&#13;

The 3DS Method URL call plays a critical role in allowing merchants to share detailed device and browser data with issuers. Despite its simplicity to implement, many merchants aren't using it.

&#13;
In Arcot's April podcast episode, James Jenkins, Head of Customer Development and Matt Cooke, GM and VP of Arcot, discuss how merchants are now using 3DS, not just to shift fraud liability, but as a communication protocol with issuers. The rise of "data-only" transactions (RCI 06) is fueling this change, improving approval rates while reducing friction for legitimate customers, particularly in the US region where false declines are a big problem. False declines impact trust and loyalty for merchants and issuers alike. When merchants share rich risk signals, they help issuers make smarter, faster decisions. &#13;
&#13;
Arcot's Smart Ruleset is also helping issuers optimize authentication strategies based on changing merchant behavior and transaction patterns without overhauling existing systems. Smart Ruleset is focused on improving approval rates while minimizing fraud exposure. Early adopters are seeing critical advantages in their metrics, including lower fraud, higher approval rates, and a stronger customer experience. &#13;
&#13;
The industry is shifting from a fragmented approach toward data-driven collaboration. The payoff?  Lower fraud, higher approval rates, fewer false declines, and smarter risk handling. </itunes:summary><description>The 3DS landscape is undergoing a major shift from a historic "blame game" between merchants and issuers toward real collaboration built on data sharing and trust.&#13;

Traditional manual rule writing is time-intensive, reactive, and often inefficient in combating sophisticated AI-driven fraud and bot attacks. Arcot’s Smart Ruleset leverages intelligence from across the Arcot Network, enabling a proactive, automated approach to fraud detection and prevention. This evolution transforms what was once a laborious, manual process into a streamlined, intelligent system. &#13;

In this podcast, James Jenkins and Matt Cooke share the issue of 3DS challenge rates; specifically that they are too high. While PSD2 compliance drove challenge rates higher, we now have an opportunity to leverage data, rules, and exemptions to reduce friction for cardholders. The benefits of this approach are self-evident; cardholders complete more transactions, resulting in more revenue, interchange, and business for merchants. &#13;

Arcot is actively working with issuers and merchants on Arcot Delegated Authentication Framework to provide the contractual vehicle to support these transactions. This supports other tools such as Trusted Beneficiary, Data Only, and a wide range of available exemptions all designed to make 3DS work better. &#13;
&#13;
We also discuss the increasing problem of fraud attacks on Authorized Push Payments (APP) where fraudsters trick genuine cardholders to complete a fraudulent transaction. We explore how to leverage the Arcot Network to identify high-risk beneficiary accounts before funds are transferred thereby blocking fraud and protecting often some of the most vulnerable customers. &#13;
