This certification means that Nostro 3DS Server not only meets the latest global security standards, but it uses them to drive higher approval rates and smoother user journeys for Nostromo’s clients, Payment Service providers (PSPs), acquirers, and merchants. 

Why are PCI DSS v4.0.1 and PCI 3DS v1.0 so important right now? 

The payments ecosystem is shifting and evolving very fast. With the retirement of older standards, PCI DSS v4.0.1 is the pinnacle of data security, focusing on increased flexibility and continuous monitoring. At the same time, PCI 3DS v1.0 certification is shielded by the industry’s most rigorous safety protocols. 

How do Nostromo’s clients benefit from this certification? 

The impact of these certifications extends across the entire payment ecosystem, minimizing the traditional friction associated with high-security protocols. 

For Payment Service Providers & Acquirers, it brings Multi-Entity Architecture, allowing them to host multiple merchants and acquirers on a single platform. Our pre-certified solution drastically lowers the own certification burden and reduces the audit scope. It also brings rapid scalability, enabling Payment service providers (PSPs) to onboard merchants instantly with zero registration friction. Speed to market and integration of new local payment systems can take as little as two weeks.  

For Merchants & Retailers, it means fewer abandoned carts. Our engine uses deep intelligence to dynamically skip 3DS challenges when risks are low, keeping the checkout flow uninterrupted.  

While the End Consumer may never see the v4.0.1 label, they will feel the result – a checkout that is invisible, fast, and secure.  

The certification is a testament to Nostromo’s mission to simplify the complexities often associated with compliance. We view these standards as a tool that empowers our clients and partners to transform authentication into a revenue-boosting experience. Our goal is to provide the speed, reliability, and intelligence that will allow them to focus on their expansion while we handle the intricacies of compliance.
