walt.farrell Posted November 11, 2022 Share Posted November 11, 2022 It's a security function required in some parts of the world. If you're really in Seattle you shouldn't be seeing it as far as I know, but perhaps you're traveling? And if you're trying to use a US card, and you're getting the 3D authorization, that seems odd (but may be normal; I've never tried it). Anyway, for it to work correctly you may need to make sure that JavaScript is enabled globally in your browser, or try a different browser. There are also browser extensions that can interfere with it. So you might try a different, up-to-date browser with no extensions.

VectorCat Posted November 11, 2022 Author Share Posted November 11, 2022 Thank you. Yes, I am really in Seattle, and not travelling. Tried on iPad - two different up-to-date browsers, including Safari - Javascript enabled and on Mac using the most up-to-date version of Safari - Javascript is enabled. I have no add-ons or doo-bobs. Straight Safari. Seems that many other people are encountering payment difficulties. I fantasized that so many people were grabbing this excellent deal that Affinity servers were choking on the traffic. Since I meet the requirements you just listed, perhaps something needs to be done on the Serif end of things. I never have issues paying for things online. I hope Serif are looking into why so many issues with payment. Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
walt.farrell Posted December 4, 2022 Share Posted December 4, 2022 Did you ever resolve this, @VectorCat? I'm still puzzled why a US credit card would need 3-D Secure processing.

VectorCat Posted December 4, 2022 Author Share Posted December 4, 2022 The resolution took the form of going the paypal route, as others had done. Thank you for asking. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
walt.farrell Posted December 4, 2022 Share Posted December 4, 2022 Thanks, @VectorCat. Still very puzzling that a US resident, presumably using a US card, would be asked for 3D Secure authorization. That is a function that I believe is only used outside the US, or for non-US cards.

VectorCat Posted December 4, 2022 Author Share Posted December 4, 2022 Agreed. The card I used is a US card. Since I’d provided every bit of information requested, the failure to go through was puzzling on my end as well. I’m glad an alternative payment method was provided. walt.farrell 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Disabling other browser add-ons might help, too.

Guest Posted June 23, 2023 Share Posted June 23, 2023 Thanks @walt.farrell I am not sure how to dis- or enable Java-Script. I have tried 3 different browsers. Brave, then Firefox and lastly Safari. Brave used to work just fine a few weeks ago for purchases in the Affinity Store like the V2-Suite. Did they change something in the meantime?

It is enabled by default, if you don't have some kind of add-on that restricts it, as far as I know. So you might try disabling any add-ons you have installed in your browsers.

Guest Posted June 23, 2023 Share Posted June 23, 2023 Another device showed no change. I found out that Brave has a built-in blocker but even disabling that delivered no results. I believe it is an issue with my bank. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted June 28, 2023 Share Posted June 28, 2023 Solution: I can confirm it is a problem with my BANK! I had to enable a security measure and everything went through! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kaffeeundsalz Posted June 28, 2023 Share Posted June 28, 2023 To shine some light on this bit: 3D Secure is an additional security measure for online payments via credit cards that operates kind of like a second factor. If you're seeing this when trying to pay via credit card, it means that the issuing bank of your credit card is requesting this additional factor before it approves the transfer. It really doesn't have anything to do with the shop or the website, it's purely a requirement of your bank. As far as I know, the credit card owner authorizes a 3D Secure transfer by either providing a password (which is chosen during the initial card setup; this is the old way) or by approving it via a button in the bank's/card's smartphone app. If 3D Secure is not properly set up, online payments might fail. If this happens, it's a support case for the issuing bank. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted June 28, 2023 Share Posted June 28, 2023 Richtig @kaffeeundsalz! First I thought it was on Affinity's side because I was shopping before on their page with said card and all went swimmingly and then all of a sudden it came around with 3D stuff. But I am wiser now!
