Don, Do I feel some minor lack of enthusiasm? :-(
But, "Card issuer domain name" sounds a bit scary. But you could write "your bank's domain name" in the form BIGBANK.COM. As this is a new payment system you may even have to try it out in a bank-specific demo. If you have managed to do this once, you should make it the next time as well. Actually a bigger portion of the "checkout" process will now be performed by familiar code (in your own language!) than by 3D secure. Of course there must be a logotype etc. so you know that it is this kind of payment-scheme you are dealing with. And then there must be marketing, hype etc. Nevertheless, you will hopefully be able to run this pretty soon on the net in a public demo. Maybe it will suck like h---... cheers, Anders ----- Original Message ----- From: "Don Park" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "''internet-payments a ' '" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Tuesday, May 28, 2002 4:50 PM Subject: RE: Proposal: A replacement for 3D Secure Anders, There are 300 million Internet users out there and I doubt if even 5% of them know the differences between an URL and a domain name. Most of that 300 million can recognize and understand what a creditcard number field is. Replacing that 'universally recognizable mother of e-commerce' field with something new like "Card issuer domain name" will instantly drop purchase completion rate by at least 10% IMO. If there are benefits to your proposal will make such loss acceptable to merchants, I am very much interested in learning about it. Best, Don
