Visa Data Only
Visa has a data-only data flow so merchants can share customer data with the issuers
without going through authentication. The additional data provided to the issuer helps
the issuer makes risk assessments about approving cardholder transactions. Data-only
data flows are frictionless and do not affect the customer experience. When sending a
Visa Data Only check enrollment request, be sure to include:
- All of the required fields.
- Set theCodepayerAuthEnrollService_challengeCodefield to06.
The response from the data-only request will include this data:
- ECI =07
- PARes =I
- <CAVV> value
This data from the response must be included in the Authorization request.
