Password Authentication
Following the creation and issuance of any New, Renewal or Replacement card_id, where your 3D Secure authentication configuration supports the OTP with Static Password method, CLOWD9 will require you to provide the Cardholder Password via the Password Authentication API as follows:
- Request the Customer Key using the Get Customer Key API
- Encrypt the Password using the Customer Key
- Provide the card_id & secure_password via the Password Authentication API
Note: CLOWD9 will not store the encrypted Password for security reasons. In the event your Cardholder has forgotten / does not know the Password, a new Password must be requested from the Cardholder and provided to CLOWD9 via the Password Authentication API.
