PayPal RESTful: Enable SCA Always option?

Good Morning,

Is it possible to set "Enable SCA Always" to true, so that it is enable for every credit card transaction that goes through, when a customer selects "credit card" as their payment method; instead of having this as an option that the customer decides by ticking the box?

Ideally, would be good to have this enabled and set to true all the time, without seeing the SCA box on the checkout.

Kind Regards,

Andy

in admin->modules->payment click on the PayPal restful module then edit. You will see"Trigger 3D Secure on Every Txn?" set this to true.
This will prompt paypal to trigger sca for all card payments.

Hi @brittainmark,

Many thanks for your information.

Just realised the reason I couldn't see this, is was because we have been using an older version of the plugin (1.0.5).

Just seen that setting SCA to true all the time was introduced in a later version (V1.1.0) - Add setting to enable SCA_ALWAYS on card payments and capture 3DS status from PayPal.

Thanks for your help with this.

Kind Regards,

Andy
