L'aperçu

Digital wallets serve as software-based containers that store a user’s payment credentials, including debit and credit cards, alongside local payment methods. In the payments stack, these wallets act as an abstraction layer between the consumer and the underlying issuer.

When a customer selects a digital wallet at checkout, the transaction typically employs device-level security such as biometrics or passkeys to authenticate the user. The wallet provider communicates with the gateway and acquirer to facilitate an authorisation request.

This process often utilises tokenisation, where the primary account number is replaced by a device-specific token to minimise the risk of sensitive data exposure.

By integrating these methods via a PSP or payment orchestrator, merchants can accept various domestic and international schemes through a single interface, ensuring compliance with Strong Customer Authentication mandates while reducing the manual entry of card details.

Comment ça marche

  1. Credential storage and tokenisation

    The user adds a payment card to their digital wallet, which then requests a virtual token from the card scheme and issuer.

    This process replaces the actual card number with a device-specific identifier, ensuring that the merchant never handles the original sensitive data during the transaction cycle.

  2. Customer authentication and intent

    At the point of sale, the customer selects the wallet as their preferred method. The wallet application prompts the user for biometric verification or a passcode.

    This step fulfills the requirements for Strong Customer Authentication under PSD2 regulations, providing a secure method to verify the cardholder's intent.

  3. Encrypted payload transmission

    Once authorised by the user, the wallet generates a secure, encrypted payload containing the payment token and a one-time security cryptogram.

    The gateway receives this information and routes it to the acquirer, who then passes it through the card schemes to the relevant issuing bank for validation.

  4. Authorisation and settlement

    The issuer verifies the token and cryptogram against their records to approve the transaction. Upon approval, the gateway receives an authorisation code.

    The funds are then processed through the standard clearing and settlement pipeline, eventually reaching the merchant's account according to their agreed payout schedule.

Pourquoi c'est important

Reduction in checkout friction

Digital wallets significantly decrease the number of steps required to complete a purchase, particularly on mobile devices. Because payment information and shipping addresses are stored within the wallet, the need for manual data entry is eliminated.

This reduction in friction is directly linked to lower cart abandonment rates in mobile commerce environments, as users can finalise transactions with minimal interaction.

Enhanced security and compliance

By leveraging biometric authentication and network tokens, digital wallets mitigate the risk of fraudulent activities and friendly fraud. The use of dynamic cryptograms for each transaction ensures that intercepted data cannot be reused for subsequent purchases.

Furthermore, the inherent support for two-factor authentication assists merchants in meeting regulatory standards for technical security without imposing additional hurdles on the customer.

Increased authorisation success

Transactions processed through established digital wallets often exhibit higher authorisation rates compared to traditional card-not-present transactions. The verified nature of the payment, combined with the presence of cryptograms, provides issuers with greater confidence in the legitimacy of the request.

This leads to fewer false declines and a more stable revenue stream for merchants operating across diverse geographical regions.

Cas d'usage

Mobile commerce applications

Retailers with native mobile applications can implement digital wallets to provide a one-tap checkout experience, which is essential for capturing impulsive or time-sensitive purchases.

Subscription and recurring billing

Merchants can use wallet tokens for Merchant Initiated Transactions, allowing for seamless monthly billing while maintaining the security benefits of a tokenised payment environment.

Cross-border retail

Businesses expanding into international markets can adopt regional digital wallets to gain trust and relevance among local consumers who favour these methods over traditional credit cards.

In-person contactless payments

Brick-and-mortar stores can accept digital wallets through NFC-enabled terminals, providing a hygienic and rapid payment alternative that mirrors the online checkout experience.

Questions about Portefeuilles numériques

Pourquoi les commerçants devraient-ils proposer des portefeuilles numériques ?

Proposer des portefeuilles numériques répond à un segment croissant de consommateurs qui privilégient la commodité et la sécurité.

Cela réduit l'abandon de panier en simplifiant le processus de paiement et renforce la confiance grâce à des fonctionnalités de sécurité avancées, ce qui entraîne finalement des taux de conversion plus élevés et une meilleure satisfaction client.

Comment les portefeuilles numériques améliorent-ils la sécurité des paiements ?

Les portefeuilles numériques améliorent la sécurité grâce à des fonctionnalités telles que la tokenisation, où les détails réels de la carte ne sont jamais exposés au commerçant.

Ils intègrent également souvent l'authentification biométrique, ajoutant une couche de sécurité supplémentaire au-delà des paiements par carte traditionnels, protégeant contre la fraude.

Quels portefeuilles numériques Cardflo prend-il en charge ?

Notre plateforme est conçue pour intégrer efficacement de nouvelles méthodes de paiement, vous assurant de rester à jour avec les demandes du marché.

Do digital wallets support recurring payments and subscriptions?

Many digital wallets support recurring payments through a process known as Merchant Initiated Transactions. Once the customer performs an initial authenticated transaction and grants a mandate, the merchant can use the stored token to process subsequent payments.

However, it is important to ensure that the payment orchestration layer correctly flags these as MITs to avoid declines due to a lack of SCA on the repeat transactions.

How do digital wallets handle disputes and chargebacks?

The dispute process for a digital wallet transaction follows the standard card scheme rules for the underlying card. If a customer initiates a chargeback, the merchant will receive a notification through their acquirer or PSP.

Because wallet transactions often involve biometric authentication, defending against 'friendly fraud' may be more effective, as the merchant can provide evidence that the transaction was authorised by the legitimate user through a secure method.

Can a merchant accept digital wallets without a mobile app?

Absolutely. Digital wallets are widely supported on mobile browsers and desktop environments via web-based payment APIs.

When a customer checkouts on a website, the browser can invoke the digital wallet, allowing the user to authorise the payment on their mobile device or laptop.

This cross-device functionality ensures that the benefits of wallet payments are not limited to native applications but extend across all digital commerce channels.

What is required to integrate digital wallets into an existing checkout flow?

Integration requires a gateway or PSP that supports the specific wallet protocols. This involves adding the wallet's JavaScript library or SDK to the checkout page, mapping the wallet's response to the gateway’s API, and ensuring that the backend can handle the tokenised payment data.

Many modern payment orchestrators offer a single API that encompasses multiple wallets, simplifying the technical requirement to maintain separate integrations for each provider.
