The new system is being introduced in accordance with the provisions of European Directive PSD2 (Payment Service Directive 2), setting the latest safety standards for payment systems.
Further on, when making an online payment involving 3D Secure technology, the user of any Rietumu Bank payment card will need to confirm a payment with the digital signature from his Digipass device or its mobile analogue Mobile Digipass.
