Registration and login

All transactions have one common characteristic. They are designed to either increase or decrease the account balance. The term ‘transaction’ includes all transaction-related communication between the merchant, an issuing processor and the issuer.

Introduction to transactions

Transaction conditions describe the particular conditions in which a card transaction was made, for example, was the chip read or was it contactless, how was the cardholder authenticated and was it e-commerce or a card present transaction.

Transaction conditions

An authorisation refers to the merchant obtaining approval or denial of a card transaction from the issuer. The authorisation process starts when a customer makes a purchase.

Authorisation and authentication of payments

Discounts enable issuers to offer discounts for single transactions or linked line items. You can offer your customers a rewards program with transaction-specific cash backs and discounts – making your payment product highly attractive to a range of end users. You have full control over how much discount each customer gets and for which transactions.

Discounts

A financial transaction is defined as a transaction that either increases or decreases the account balance. This section will describe both card scheme transactions that are posted when cards are used at merchants and API triggered transactions that can be posted via Enfuce APIs.

Financial transaction

There may be situations when you need to be able to link authorisations or notifications of authorisations with financial transactions. For example, some issuers send a notification to their customer after an authorisation, requesting the customer to take an action based on it (like take a picture of the receipt or assign it to a cost category).

Linking authorisation with transaction

This API allows you to do peer-to-peer transfers between accounts and cards residing in Enfuce.

Transfer API

This solution enables enriching transactional data with, for example, receipt line items, quantity of items or travel details. While normal card transactions have a lot of information, it lacks detailed data about what was bought.

Purchase details

A card serves as the actual payment instrument. Cards can take many forms: They can be plastic, virtual or tokenised elements that work though a variety of devices, like smart watches, mobile phones and rings. 

Card

Disposable cards can have many use cases for private and corporate customers.

Disposable card – time-based closing

A card as a payment instrument can take many forms nowadays, virtual, tokenised, and physical one. A modern issuer needs to be able to support these multiple representations of cards, as well as manage the varying preferences of their end users.

Digital card – creating the omnichannel payment card experience

A customer is the entity to which a card and/or an account is issued to. A customer can be a private person, a corporate customer, or even an item, like a vehicle.

Customer

The All-in-One card combines multiple card applications (PANs) into one physical card.

All-in-One card

The account entity’s main functionality is to hold the balance. It also functions as the link in case several cards share the same balance. For credit products, the account also represents the invoice level from which invoices are generated.

Account

Depending on your needs and the agreed setup between Enfuce and yourself, there are different types of account products.

Account product types

Account hierarchies allow you to create a hierarchical structure of your corporate customer accounts.

Account hierarchy

Balance types are used to improve the financial information that is provided in the data export files.

Balance types

A great cardholder experience is at the centre of what Enfuce does. This includes giving cardholders the ability to manage their cards themselves.

Introduction to our APIs

The Enfuce data approach is based on a generic solution that is designed to fit different types of payment products (credit, debit, consumer, corporate, fleet cards, etc.).

Enfuce interfaces and data sharing

‘View card data’ allows the cardholder to safely and conveniently access the data required for making an e-commerce purchase, without having access to a digital wallet or a physical card.

View card data

The ‘view PIN’ functionality allows your customer to safely and conveniently access their card’s PIN via a mobile or web app when needed.

View PIN

Set PIN allows the customer to choose the PIN (Personal Identification Number) of the card. This can be done safely and conveniently through mobile or web app.

Allowing the cardholder to choose a PIN of their choice improves the end-user experience as it reduces the burden of remembering multiple PINs and decreases the amount of failed transactions as well as requests for resetting the PIN attempts.

Change PIN

Authorisation control gives you the flexibility to create sophisticated rules for approving and declining transactions in real time.

Authorisation control

Have full control over where your cards can be used, in what way, how much, and when.

Advanced spend controls

Enfuce supports a range of spend controls that are used to provide the customer with the possibility to control the use of the card and improve trust and a sense of safety.

Spend controls

Data export files are a set of files which are exported from the Enfuce data warehouse for the issuer.

To comply with EU Cross Border Payment regulation (EU 2021/1230) and to enable improved end user experience, Enfuce provides a solution to disclose to the end user the exchange rates used for card payments.

Cross-border payment regulation (CBPR)

The EU Payment Service Directive includes multiple requirements that have to be considered by payment issuers.

Payment Service Directive (PSD)

We develop and maintain all our services keeping in mind best practices for security and data protection.

The European Union’s General Data Protection Regulation (Regulation (EU) 2016/679) regulates the processing of personal data, which applies to financial data processed by Issuers of payment instruments.

Privacy and data protection

Transaction-specific strong customer authentication (SCA) data

3-D Secure is designed to increase consumer confidence in online payments by providing additional authentication of the customer during the purchase process.

3DS – authentication of online payments

The card schemes’ address verification service allows card-not-present merchants to check the cardholder’s billing address with the card issuer to increase security and protect against fraud.

Address verification service

Dispute management includes the initiation and management of your customers’ payment disputes.

Dispute management

Managing fraud is essential in ensuring continuous customer trust in any payment solution.

Fraud prevention

We value collaboration with several trusted partners from both commercial and product perspectives.

Partnerships

Enfuce offers comprehensive support throughout your lifecycle as a customer.

This is a web service designed to lookup an card based on the card number. The payload in the request is 
encrypted with JWE (JSON Web Encryption), to enable end-to-end encryption from source system to Enfuce.

### PCI DSS compliance
Processing payment information (PAN, expiry, CVC2/CVV2) is controlled with strict compliance regulations by the
card schemes. There are multiple ways to access the card payment information in Enfuce's APIs depending on the
client solution, and whether the client is a card schema member themselves and therefore responsible for
compliance.

The alternative shown here (Get card using card number) relies on that the client is responsible for PCI DSS 
compliance themselves to the card schema.
