Description

Definition and Scope:

3D Secure (3-domain structure), also known as a payer authentication, is a security protocol that helps to prevent fraud in online credit and debit card transactions. The payer authentication is a three-part process, so there are three parties involved in the process: the issuer (such as Visa or MasterCard), the acquirer, and the interoperability domain (such as payment system). The 3D Secure Authentication industry can be broken down into several segments, System and Platform, Consulting Services and Solutions, etc . 3D secure authentication is a measure to prevent fraud and can be used as an additional layer of security when making card payments.

The popularity of 3D security authentication is increasing globally to enhance security. Driven by increased adoption during the global pandemic, the market trend of digital shopping and online payments has exploded, with people purchasing significantly more online. Additionally, integrating advanced technologies such as machine learning and biometrics into payment solutions is a popular trend.

The global 3D Secure Authentication market size is projected to reach US$ 2,076.05 Million by 2029 from US$ 592.24 million in 2022 at a CAGR of 20.04% during 2023-2029. Concerns about online fraud continue to escalate, with a significant increase in automated attacks as a symbol, driving the adoption of powerful payment methods such as 3D secure authentication. Merchants are faced with the dilemma of fighting fraud versus prioritizing sales, and urgently need to find secure ways to capture legitimate transactions and maximize revenue. Second, increased consumer awareness of the risks of online transactions has increased expectations for secure payment processes, consistent with the additional layer of verification provided by 3D Secure Authentication. As global e-commerce transaction volumes continue to surge, secure payment methods have become imperative, and 3D security authentication serves as a catalyst for consumer trust in online transactions. Furthermore, the proliferation of mobile and app-based transactions, coupled with the globalization of e-commerce, has enhanced the relevance of 3D secure authentication to provide standardized security and consistent user experience across geographies.

At the same time, the development challenges faced by the 3D secure payment authentication market cover many aspects. First, implementation costs are a significant barrier, with merchants required to pay transaction-related fees. Overcoming high initial installation costs is critical for widespread adoption. Additionally, alternative payment options exist, especially in systems developed by governments and state-owned banks. The authentication process in 3D Secure may lead to higher cart abandonment rates as customers seek a seamless checkout experience. The situation is further complicated by limitations in application scope, varying adoption rates around the world, and potential compatibility issues with certain devices or browsers. The launch of the 3DS 2.0 standard, while enhancing security, also requires merchants to make adjustments in data collection, risk control methods, payment process optimization, etc., increasing the friction and complexity of the payment process.

Segment by Type, the 3D Secure Authentication can be split into by Access Control Serer, Merchant Plug-in, Others. In 2022, Access Control Serer and Merchant Plug-in have occupied 55.81% and 38.91% of the market share respectively. Access Control Server's prominence can be attributed to its critical role in managing authentication processes and ensuring secure transactions. Access control servers play a central role in authenticating users, validating transactions, and enhancing overall security. On the other hand, the huge market share held by merchant plugins highlights its importance for merchants to facilitate the seamless integration of 3D secure authentication into their payment systems. Merchant plugins facilitate a smoother authentication process and reduce friction during online transactions.

According to application classification, the 3D Secure Authentication can be split into Bank, Merchants, Others. In 2022, Banks and Merchants contributed 58.06% and 36.33% of revenue to the market respectively. The strong participation of banks is mainly due to the key role they play in ensuring the security of online transactions. Banks leverage 3D Secure Authentication to enhance the security of payment processes, protecting financial institutions and their customers from fraudulent activity. The powerful authentication measures provided by 3D Security Authentication are very consistent with the strict security requirements of banking transactions, making it an indispensable solution for financial institutions. Additionally, 3D Secure Authentication is widely adopted by merchants to protect their online transactions, increase customer confidence and reduce the risk of fraud.

On basis of geography, the 3D Secure Authentication market is segmented into North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, South America, Middle East and Africa, etc. In 2022, North America accounted for 33.00% of the 3D Secure Payment Authentication market share, It is expected to maintain its dominance in the coming years. The United States is one of the largest e-commerce markets in the world and is expected to create huge opportunities in the near future. It has a relatively simple payment environment, dominated by credit and debit cards. The country is considered home to many major international cards such as Mastercard, Visa, Discover, American Express, and Diners Club. Therefore, the integration level of 3D secure payment certification is high in North America.

The Asia-Pacific region has become the largest market with a market share of 33.49% and will maintain this position during the forecast period, expanding at a rate of 23.48%. China is the largest retail e-commerce market in the Asia-Pacific region and a driving force for mobile commerce. The most commonly used payment methods in the country are UnionPay, Alipay and WeChat Pay. In countries such as Australia, Singapore and South Korea, credit and debit cards are the most popular payment methods.

Currently, the UK is one of the few countries in the world to enable 3D secure payment authentication and improve overall transactions. The UK is a mature online shopping market, and most consumers choose bank card payment methods to purchase products. In the UAE, a significant portion of consumers choose to pay online because they believe it helps them save money.

According to our calculations, the two indicators used to measure market concentration in the 3D Secure Authentication market, CR5 and HHI, have reached 72.19% and 13.20% respectively in 2022. This means that the market concentration is not high and merchants in the market are still in fierce competition.
