Published 2 years ago 04 Apr 2022

A decoupled authentication flow in which the TPP (AISP/PISP/CBPII) provides the ASPSP a stored PSU identifier from a previous PSU transaction. This is used by the ASPSP to enable the PSU to authenticate using thier ASPSP app on a separate device.

User Journey

Main content image

A decoupled authentication flow where the TPP (AISP/PISP/CBPII) provides the ASPSP a stored PSU identifier, generated by the ASPSP from a previous PSU transaction. This is used by the ASPSP to notify the PSU such that the PSU can authenticate using the ASPSP app on a separate device.

This model is ideally suited where the services offered by the TPP involves POS, telephony, or where PSU interaction with the TPP is not possible through a graphical interface (IoT devices), or even when the PSU may not be present within the TPP channel.

Wireframes

We have used one variation of the PIS journey (Single Domestic Payments – a/c selection @ PISP) as an example, where the ASPSP receives all the details of the payment order via the TPP device.

The voice commands are an example of how the PSU interacts with the TPP.

This flow applies to other variations of PIS journeys covered in detail under section Payment Initiation Services (PIS), AISP journeys covered under section Account Information Services (AIS) and CBPII journeys covered under section Card Based Payment Instrument Issuers (CBPIIs).

CEG Checklist Requirements & CX Considerations

PISP IoT device through voice enabled commands asks if they would like to checkout for the requested payment using their stored ASPSP account. After the PSU confirms, the PISP uses the stored PSU identity with the ASPSP to request for payment.
