PSD2 SCA: How Ready Are Issuers?

The revised Payment Services Directive (PSD2) is now live in Europe and the biggest question on everyone’s minds is readiness.

How truly ready is the payments ecosystem and what is the customer impact?

In the fall of 2020, Ekata conducted in-depth research into the European Payments Service Provider (PSP) ecosystem. We surveyed over 500 large and medium issuers & platforms that serve the entire European region.

This ebook focuses on issuers, but also discusses some interesting comparisons with acquirers. It aims to inform and help PSPs, acquirers, and, in turn, merchants with issuer readiness findings and future updates.
