Replacing OTPs with one-touch online payment authentication


The only company in Switzerland to offer American Express, Mastercard, and Visa credit cards from a single source, Swisscard wanted to replace one-time passwords used to authenticate card-not-present transactions.

Entersekt teamed up with Netcetera to help, and in 2014, Swisscard became the first European issuer to launch the Transakt mobile app for online payment authentication.
