AUTO

If either a LOW_RISK or LOW_VALUE_PAYMENT exemption applies to the transaction, it is automatically claimed by the gateway on behalf of the merchant.

Exemption is claimed as the amount is below 30 Euro.

For example, a recurring payment (for a varied or fixed amount), installment payment, or account top-up. In these cases, the payer is not present and cannot participate in an authentication interaction. Merchant initiated transactions are only applicable to subsequent transactions on the order and are out of scope of the PSD2 RTS on Strong Customer Authentication (SCA).

This value is only applicable to subsequent transactions on the order. In this case, the payer is not present and cannot participate in an authentication interaction. The payer must be authenticated during the first transaction that established the agreement.
