Digital Commerce Authentication Program
The Digital Commerce Authentication Program (DCAP), provides you with a way to enhance
the security and reliability of card-not-present transactions by providing enhanced data
without adding complexity in checkout. DCAP helps the clients that use network
tokenization to provide more information to issuers when purchases are made using
network tokens.
DCAP does not require the token to be an authenticated payment credential. Instead, you
can include additional fields in the transaction request that are sent to the issuer and
are used in risk scoring. This enables issuers to make a more informed authorization
decision.
