Dokan Version 2.9.12 Update
The Stripe 3D Secure & Strong Customer Authentication System
With the release of Dokan Pro v2.9.12, you will be able to let the vendors use the stripe 3D secure and strong customer authentication in the checkout process. Here is how the customers will be able to buy using the Stripe 3D Secure:
Requirements
To allow the customers to use this 3D secured feature, the vendor must have the Stripe 3D secure and strong customer authentication system. Here are a few things to look at:
1. The admin must enable the 3D Secure and Strong Customer Authentication
2. 3D Secure and SCA ready transaction is only supported when both your platform and the connected account (Vendor) are in the same region: both in Europe or both in the U.S.
How will the Admin set the stripe 3D secure & strong customer authentication?
As an admin, navigate to the WP Admin Dashboard > WooCommerce > Settings > Payments > Dokan Stripe Connect (Click on the ‘Manage' button). After that, you will get the following screen:
Now, check the box beside the 3D Secure and SCA field to activate this secure payment method for your vendors and customers as shown above.
How will customers pay with the 3D secure system?
Supposing that the admin and the vendor both have enabled this feature. Now the customer will follow the normal purchase process:
Step 1: Add to Cart
Step 2: View Cart
Step 3: Proceed to Checkout
Step 4: Place Order
Step 5: 3D Secure Test Payment Page
This is it! In this very step, the 3D secure payment feature that we are talking about will appear. When the customer is paying he or she will be asked to verify their identity with a push notification and a text message in this step. Next, the customer has to hit the “COMPLETE AUTHENTICATION” button to proceed.
Step 6: Order Received
Finally, the order will be received by the admin as usual.
Notes:
1. If the admin and vendor don't follow the 3D Secure and Strong Customer Authentication, then it will work as it was before.
2. Also, automatic refund through stripe is not supported as well.
