Slide 6-20
Authenticates cardholder and merchant identity through use of digital certificates An open standard developed by MasterCard and Visa Transaction process similar to standard online credit card transaction, with more identity verification The plastic cards are replaced by the digital certificates in e-commerce.

Slide 6-26
Digital Cash
One of the first forms of alternative payment systems Not really cash rather, are forms of value storage and value exchange that have limited convertibility into other forms of value, and require intermediaries to convert Many of early examples have disappear; concepts survive as part of P2P payment systems

2 1
1. Consumer buys e-cash from Bank 2. Bank sends e-cash bits to consumer (after charging that amount plus fee) 3. Consumer sends e-cash to merchant 4. Merchant checks with Bank that e-cash is valid (check for forgery or fraud) 5. Bank verifies that e-cash is valid 6. Parties complete transaction: e.g., merchant present e-cash to issuing back for deposit once goods or services are delivered
Consumer

P2P small and simple payment mechanism for transferring funds among individuals. Users open an a/c at Achex site and submit their traditional checking a/c number they will use to pay checks. a/c is verified, then the payment can be made to individuals who have an e-mail address and a valid checking a/c into which they can transfer funds. Users access their Achex a/c using a login and password/ IPIN. Recipients receive an e-mail indicating that funds are available for transfer and requesting a valid checking a/c number. Achex transfers the funds to the recipients checking a/c. Service is free to consumers although merchants pay processing fee which is half the price of credit card processing
Slide 6-40
Much more sophisticated system Consortium of banks, government agencies, and technology companies developed a plan for e checking that would use public key encryption and would not require a third party like achex to transfer funds. Requires users to obtain a hardware based electronic checkbook from traditional bank. Hardware could be standard PC card/ smart card external to consumer computer. E-checkbook contains consumers digital signature in form of private key and issuing banks public key

Electronic Checks
ACH Conversions
Online Paper Check Developed by Financial Services Technology Consortium (FSTC) Not-forprofit group of CA banks Initiated using a PIN and digital signature Receiver prints out paper check for deposit ACH Conversions (most common method referred to) Transactions converted to ACH debits (e.g., ARC, POP, WEB, TEL) Services can be provided by third party processors Account verification determined upfront. Guarantees available. Examples of services provided through third-party CyberSource (POP)

Slide 6-61
Managerial issues
Security solution providers should provide secure electronic payment system EPS solution providers should offer EPS to e-stores and banks E-stores should select and promote appropriate set of EPS Banks need to develop cyber banks compatible with various EPS Credit card brand companies need to develop standards like SET and watch for its acceptance Certificate authorities need to identify the types of certificates to be provided.
Slide 6-62
Consumer needs: cheaper and secure EPS Corporate processes: will small and medium businesses be harmed or helped by EPS Corporate strategy: will EPS end up in hands of fewer financial institutes or will it generate a number of small banks that cater to digital processing Regulation of competition: standardization, fair play, regulation of taxes, public interest Economics and social processes: will the government pull out of cash making business
