Validation Fields and their Equivalent Authorization Fields

When a customer is authenticated after a challenge, the transaction can be authorized in the same request or in a separate authorization request. Whether authorization is combined with validation or occurs in a separate request, the values from the validation response must be passed to the authorization request to qualify for a liability shift to the issuing bank. This table pairs the Validation field with its equivalent Authorization API field.
Be sure to include the following card-specific information in your authorization request:
  • For Visa, American Express, JCB, Diners Club, Discover, China UnionPay, and Elo, include the CAVV.
  • For Mastercard only, include the collection indicator and the AAV (also known as UCAF).
