1.4 Payment Application Data Security
Standards (PA-DSS)
The Payment Card Industry (PCI) Security Standards Council (SSC) has released the Payment
Application Data Security Standards (PA-DSS) for payment applications running at merchant
locations. The PA-DSS assist software vendors to ensure their payment applications support
compliance with the mandates set by the Bank Card Companies (VISA, MasterCard, Discover,
American Express, and JCB).
In order to comply with the mandates set by the bank card companies, Heartland Payment
Systems:
• Requires that the account number cannot be stored as plain, unencrypted data to meet PCI
and PA-DSS regulations. It must be encrypted while stored using strong cryptography with
associated key management processes and procedures.
Note: Refer to PCI DSS Requirements 3.4–3.6* for detailed requirements regarding
account number storage. The retention period for the Account Number in the
shadow file and open batch must be defined and at the end of that period or when
the batch is closed and successfully transmitted, the account number and all other
information must be securely deleted. This is a required process regardless of the
method of transmission for the POS.
• Requires that, with the exception of the Account Number as described above and the
Expiration Date, no other Track Data is to be stored on the POS if the Card Type is a:
VISA, including VISA Fleet; MasterCard, including MasterCard Fleet; Discover, including
JCB, UnionPay, Carte Blanche, Diner's Club, and PayPal; American Express; Debit or
EBT. This requirement does not apply to WEX, FleetCor, Fleet One, Voyager, or Aviation
cards; Stored Value cards; Proprietary or Private Label cards.
• Recommends that software vendors to have their applications validated by an approved
third party for PA-DSS compliance.
• Requires all software vendors to sign a Non-Disclosure Agreement / Development
Agreement.
• Requires all software vendors to provide evidence of the application version listed on the
PCI Council’s website as a PA-DSS validated Payment Application, or a written certification
to HPS testing to Developer's compliance with PA-DSS.
• Requires that all methods of cryptography provided or used by the payment application
meet PCI SSC’s current definition of ‘Strong Cryptography’.
*Refer to www.pcisecuritystandards.org for the PCI DSS Requirements document and further
details about PA-DSS.

Chapter 2: General POS Requirements
2.1 Address Verification Service
Visa, MasterCard, AMEX and Discover offer an Address Verification Service (AVS) as a
risk-management tool for merchants accepting transactions in which:
• neither the card nor the cardholder are present (e.g., mail, telephone order, Internet
transactions), or
• the card is present but its magnetic stripe cannot be read by a terminal at the point of sale.
AVS helps reduce the risk of accepting fraudulent transactions by issuer verification of the
cardholder’s billing address. The AVS Result Code helps the merchant determine whether to
accept a particular transaction or to take further follow-up action.
When a merchant accepts a card-not-present transaction, financial liability is also accepted by
the merchant in the event the transaction proves to be fraudulent. If the transaction is fraudulent,
the dollar value of the transaction may be “charged back” to the merchant. In addition to the
“charge back,” there are additional costs to process these exception items, plus the loss of
merchandise.
Table 2-1 Address Verification Service
AVS Request

Description

Address Verification
Request

Address verification may be requested in one of two ways:

AVS By Itself (AVS Only)

An AVS only request may be used under the following circumstances:

• by itself, or
• as part of an authorization request.

• a merchant wants to verify the customer’s billing address before requesting an
authorization, or
• the merchant sent an AVS and an authorization request earlier and received
an authorization approval but an AVS “try again later” response.

Table 2-1 Address Verification Service (Continued)
AVS Request
AVS Authorization
Request

Description
You may process AVS requests the same way you process authorizations simply
by including the AVS information in the authorization request. The authorization
and address verification process is as follows:
• Customer contacts the merchant to place an order.
• The merchant confirms the usual order information including the merchandise
description, price, the customer’s account number, card expiration date, and
shipping address.
• The merchant requests the cardholder’s billing address (street address and/or
ZIP Code) for the card being used. (The billing address is where the
cardholder’s monthly statement is sent for the card being used.)
• The POS system includes the address information with the authorization
request to Heartland.
• The issuer makes an authorization decision separately from the AVS request.
The issuer compares the cardholder billing address with the billing address it
has for that account. The issuer returns both the authorization response and a
code indicating the address verification results. Like any other transaction, if
the issuer declines the authorization request do not complete the transaction
for that account. This rule holds true even if you receive an “exact match” on
the address verification request.

2.1.2 AVS Result Code Guidelines
Not all Heartland POS message specifications support AVS Result Codes. See your specific
POS message specification for details.
For some industries, if the AVS Result Code is not a match, the payment engine automatically
declines and voids the transaction to the issuer.
For other industries, the merchant makes the decision on whether to proceed when the AVS
information is not an exact match, but the issuer approves the authorization request. See you
Heartland Representative for more information.

2.2 Chargeback Protected Limits
The following amounts are the ICR-initiated chargeback protected amounts for approved
transactions by the bank card associations.
The merchant may choose to override these amounts. Any amount above the limits listed will not
include Chargeback Protection.
The merchant is at risk for any amount above these limits.
Table 2-2 Chargeback Protected Limits
Card Type

Description

VISA

• VISA Consumer (including VISA Signature and Sign Preferred), VISA
Business (including VISA Signature Business), VISA Corporate, and
VISA Purchasing cards offer Chargeback Protection to $100 if the card
has been authorized for $1.00.
• VISA Fleet cards offer Chargeback Protection to $150 if the card has
been authorized for $1.00.

MasterCard

• MasterCard Consumer cards offer Chargeback Protection to $100 if the
card has been authorized for $1.00.
• MasterCard Corporate, MasterCard Corporate Fleet, and MasterCard
Purchasing cards offer Chargeback Protection to $150 if the card has
been authorized for $1.00.

Discover Card

• Discover Card offers Chargeback Protection to $100 if the card has been
authorized for $1.00. If the merchant has a custom agreement with
Discover to authorize for a different amount, chargeback protection is the
approved amount.

American Express

• American Express does not offer Chargeback Protection.

HPS Integrator’s Guide V 16.1.1

2.3 No Signature Required
No Signature Required is a program offered by Visa, MasterCard, AMEX and Discover for
consumer and commercial cards. The No Signature Required program allows merchants within
certain MCC codes to process transactions without having to obtain the cardholders signature or
provide the cardholder with a receipt unless the cardholder requests it.
In order to be eligible for No Signature Required, the following conditions must be met:
• The cardholder must be present at the time of the transaction in a face-to-face
environment.
• The merchant name and location must be included in the authorization request.
• The total amount of the transaction must be less than the No Signature Required threshold
for the merchant’s MCC. Refer to the individual card associations for current information
about amounts, MCCs allowed, etc.
• Online authorization must be obtained and the full track data must be included in the
authorization message. The track data can be obtained from the chip for EMV transactions
or from the magnetic stripe for swiped transactions.
To process a No Signature Required transaction with a chip card (on a chip-card-capable POS
terminal), the terminal application must set the Terminal Capabilities field to enable only the No
CVM Required card verification method (CVM). This action will cause the chip card not to require
a CVM.

2.4 Binary to ASCII Hex Conversion
Since some the Host message formats allow for only printable characters to appear in
transaction data fields. Binary fields must be expanded to ensure that no values less than
hexadecimal 20 are transmitted.
To convert a binary field to its corresponding ASCII equivalent, remove 4 bits at a time and
convert them to the ASCII characters defined below. Performing this conversion procedure will
result in a doubling of the field size, i.e., a 20-digit binary field will yield a 40-character ASCII
result. After performing the conversion, the resulting ASCII data may then be populated within
the transaction data field.

Track 2 layouts.
The maximum length of Track 1 is 79 characters. This length includes the START SENTINEL,
FIELD SEPARATORS, END SENTINEL and LONGITUDINAL REDUNDANCY CHECK (LRC)
fields. The Track 1 overall length will vary by card after the CARDHOLDER NAME field.
The maximum length of Track 2 is 40 characters. This length includes the START SENTINEL,
FIELD SEPARATOR, END SENTINEL, and LONGITUDINAL REDUNDANCY CHECK (LRC)
fields.
Track Data is sent unaltered.
Track data is defined by a number of International Organization for Standardization standards.
ISO/IEC 7810, ISO/IEC 7811, ISO/IEC 7812, ISO/IEC 7813, ISO 8583, and ISO/IEC 4909, now
define the physical properties of the card, including size, flexibility, location of the magstripe,
magnetic characteristics, and data formats. They also provide the standards for financial cards,
including the allocation of card number ranges to different card issuing institutions. The
standards should be referenced for details on track data.

WEX defines their Fleet number as:
• ISO – six numeric
• Client Id – four numeric
• Zeros – two numeric
• Account Number – six numeric
• Check Digit – one numeric
To calculate the Check Digit, follow these steps:
• Examine the six-digit Account Number, one digit at a time
• Result 1 = Multiply digit 1 by 1
• Result 2 = Multiply digit 2 by 2
• Result 3 = Multiply digit 3 by 1
• Result 4 = Multiply digit 4 by 2
• Result 5 = Multiply digit 5 by 1
• Result 6 = Multiply digit 6 by 2
If any of these Results (1 through 6) are > 9, then subtract 9 from that Result
The sum of all Results (1 through 6) = the Dividend
Divide the Dividend by 10 resulting in a Quotient and a Remainder
The Remainder = the MOD10-Value
If the MOD10-Value is not equal to 0, compute MOD10-Value = 10 minus MOD10-Value
Move MOD10-Value to Check Digit

4: E3 Processing Overview

Chapter 4: E3 Processing Overview
4.1 Introduction
Heartland Secure™ is a comprehensive credit/debit card data security solution that combines
three powerful technologies working in tandem to provide merchants with the highest level of
protection available against card-present data fraud.
Offered to Heartland customers for no additional processing fees as part of Heartland's
comprehensive solutions, Heartland Secure combines:
• EMV electronic chip card technology to prove that a consumer's card is genuine.
• Heartland's E3® end-to-end encryption technology, which immediately encrypts card data
as it is acquired so that no one else can read it.
• Tokenization technology, which replaces card data with “tokens” that can be used for
returns and repeat purchases, but are unusable by outsiders because they have no value.
This guide focuses on Heartland's E3 end-to-end encryption solution and contains integration
information for POS systems. It serves as a companion to Heartland's host network
specifications and the E3 device programmer's manuals. These documents should be referred to
for more detailed information.

4.2 The E3® Solution
E3, an end-to-end encryption product by Heartland Payment Systems, is designed to protect
credit and debit card data from the moment of card swipe and through the Heartland network —
not just at certain points of the transaction flow.
E3 is based on Voltage Security's SecureData Payments product which provides a complete
payment transaction protection framework, built on two breakthrough technologies
encompassing encryption and key management: Voltage Format-Preserving Encryption (FPE)
and Voltage Identity-Based Encryption (IBE).
With Voltage Format-Preserving Encryption (FPE), credit card numbers and other sensitive data
are protected without the need to change the data format or structure. In addition, data properties
are maintained, such as a checksum, and portions of the data can remain in the clear.
With Voltage Identity-Based Encryption (IBE), the complexity of key management through
traditional Public Key Infrastructure (PKI) systems and symmetric key systems is eliminated —
because encryption keys are securely generated on demand and not stored, POS devices are
not subject to key injection and key rotation.

4.3 Encryption Data
4.3.1 Encrypted Track and PAN Data
Depending on the configuration of your E3-capable card acceptance device, the E3 encrypted
Track and PAN data will be formatted using one of two Track Encryption Protocol (TEP)
algorithms, TEP1 or TEP2. TEP1 is whole track encryption, while TEP2 is structure preserving
encryption.
Example: The following data was produced by an E3-capable device using Heartland's VISA
test card:

TEP1

AsbjXkDWaRqLV0o5U33jffZqiPg

For TEP2, the following is guaranteed:
• The leading six digits of the original PAN are maintained in the clear.
• The trailing four digits of the original PAN are maintained in the clear.
• The middle digits are used for the ciphertext value, which is guaranteed to consist solely of
digits.
• The Luhn check value is preserved so that a PAN with a valid zero (0) result, creates
ciphertext that also checks as valid.
For TEP1, the device will provide a separate masked or obfuscated representation of the track
data for processing that requires the first six or last four digits of the PAN, cardholder name,
expiration date, Luhn check results, etc.

4.3.2 Encrypted Card Security Code
The Card Security Code (CSC) printed on the back of the card, referred to as CAV2, CVC2,
CVV2, or CID depending on the card brand, can be optionally encrypted.
The value to be encrypted is constructed as follows:
• Length [1 digit]
• Random Filler [x digits]
• CSC [3 or 4 digits]
Table 4-4 Encrypted CSC Steps
Step

Example Data

1. Obtain the CSC value (either 3 or 4 digits)

572

2. Generate a random 3-digit number

413

3. Construct the value to be encrypted

3413572

4. Encrypt the value

9037662

Note: The total length of the encrypted CSC will always be seven digits. Typically, the device will
randomly generate two or three digits of filler to ensure the CSC is seven digits.

4.3.3 Encryption Transmission Block
The Encryption Transmission Block (ETB), sometimes referred to as a Key Transmission Block
(KTB), contains the IBE encrypted version of the device's randomly generated FPE key that was
used to encrypt the card data. The ETB must be sent in the authorization requests so that the
host can decrypt the card data.
Heartland's ETB must be Base64 encoded, and for TEP1 and TEP2 it must be 276 bytes.

4.4 E3 Specific Requirements
4.4.1 Heartland Exchange
This section addresses specific requirements for E3 terminals using the Heartland Exchange
Message Specification. All card types may be sent using E3 encryption.

4.4.1.1 Unique Transaction ID (UID)
Heartland's Unique Transaction ID (UID) is a software solution that eliminates the need for a
POS application to store the account number or track data for subsequent processing such as
Voids/Incrementals, and Batch Settlement. The UID is returned by the Heartland Exchange Host
in the Authorization response messages. This application is not available on other Heartland
Host platforms.
• Voids/Incrementals: The Account Data Source field will be 'Z' or 'z' to indicate that the UID
is being used instead of track or Primary Account Number (PAN) data. The Customer Data
field will contain the UID which is the Retrieval Reference Number (RRN) from the
Authorization.
• Batch Settlement: The Primary Account Number field in the Batch Settlement Detail
Record will be filled with all spaces to indicate that the UID is being used instead of PAN
data. The Transaction Identifier field in the Batch Settlement Detail Record is the
Transaction Identifier from the Authorization and it contains the UID.

4.4.1.2 Merchant ID Number (MID)
Merchant ID Number is a 12 character field that contains a unique number assigned by
Heartland. If your E3 implementation encrypts the MID, then the E3 sub-encryption indicator in
the Key Block Data field must indicate the MID is encrypted (01 or 02 as appropriate).

4.4.1.3 Account Data Source
The Account Data Source field is used to indicate the source and format of the data contained in
the Customer Data field. Refer to the Exchange Host Specification for a complete list of Account
Data Source codes.

4.4.1.4 Customer Data
The Customer Data field contains the Key Block data and either the Cardholder Account data or
the Unique Transaction ID. The Cardholder Account data may be either the encrypted Track 1,
encrypted Track 2, or encrypted primary account number. The unique transaction ID is never
encrypted. Refer to the Exchange Host Specification for the Customer Data format.

4.4.1.5 Retrieval Reference Number (RRN)
The Retrieval Reference Number field contains a value that uniquely identifies a transaction. The
Retrieval Reference Number is sent in an authorization response. The POS then uses the RRN
in voids and incrementals to identify the original transaction.

4.4.1.6 Transaction Identifier
The Transaction Identifier field contains the UID. The Transaction Identifier is sent in an
authorization response.

4: E3 Processing Overview

Note:
• Refer to section Authorization Chapter in the Heartland Exchange specification for all other
fields.
• UIDs are used to retrieve a transaction’s account data for Voids, Incrementals, and Batch
Settlement. This eliminates the need to store or send encrypted or unencrypted track, PAN,
or KTB data once authorization has occurred.
• For refunds/returns, Purchase Return (Transaction Code CR) must be utilized so that the
returned UID can be used for settlement.
• For voice authorizations, Online Forced Purchase (Transaction Code 5S) must be utilized
so that the returned UID can be used for settlement.

4.4.1.8 Void/Incremental Example
A Void is required to cancel a previously authorized transaction. Online Auth Void (Transaction
Code 59), PIN Debit: Purchase Void (Transaction Code A3), or PIN Debit: Purchase Return Void
(Transaction Code A4) should be used depending on the type of the original authorization.
An Incremental Authorization is required in certain industries such as Hotel/Lodging when the
final amount due is more than 15% higher than the originally authorized amount.
For Voids/Incremental Requests the fields below require specific handling:
• Merchant ID Number – This field will be the unencrypted, cleartext MID.
• Account Data Source – This field will indicate that the UID is being sent instead of track or
PAN data:
– “z” = Original authorization request contained encrypted track or PAN data.
• Customer Data – This field will be , where 
is just “v03” – the KTB is not required in this case since no encrypted data is being sent,
and  is the RRN from the original authorization response.
Note: Refer to the Heartland Exchange Specification for all other fields.
Void/Incremental Responses – No specific fields in the Exchange Host response require specific
handling.

5: EMV Processing Overview

Chapter 5: EMV Processing Overview
5.1 Introduction
In 1996, Europay, MasterCard, and VISA first published the “EMV” specifications for the use of
chip cards for payment. EMV® is now a registered trademark of EMVCo, LLC, an organization
jointly owned and operated by American Express, Discover, JCB, MasterCard, UnionPay, and
VISA.
EMVCo manages, maintains, and enhances the EMV Integrated Circuit Card Specifications to
help facilitate global interoperability and compatibility of payment system integrated circuit cards
and acceptance devices. EMVCo maintains and extends specifications, provides testing
methodology, and oversees the testing and approval process.
The EMV Specifications provide a global standard for credit and debit payment cards based on
chip card technology. Payment chip cards contain an embedded microprocessor, a type of small
computer that provides strong security features and other capabilities not possible with traditional
magnetic stripe cards.
Chip cards are available in two forms, contact and contactless.
• For contact, the chip must come into physical contact with the chip reader for the payment
transaction to occur.
• For contactless, the chip must come within sufficient proximity of the reader (less than 4
cm) for the payment transaction to occur. Some cards may support both contact and
contactless interfaces, and non-card form factors such as mobile phones may also be used
for contactless payment.
Heartland recommends that vendors become familiar with general EMV processing prior to initial
implementation at Heartland. A good overview of EMV is available from EMVCo at:
http://www.emvco.com/best_practices.aspx?id=217.

5.2 EMV Migration
5.2.1 Enhanced Security
EMV is designed to significantly improve consumer card payment security by providing features
for reducing fraudulent transactions that result from counterfeit and lost and stolen cards. Due to
increased credit card breaches, this enhanced security has become a significant necessity.
The key security features are:
Table 5-1 Key Security Features
Key Security Feature

Description

Card Authentication

The terminal can authenticate the legitimacy of the card by using a
public-key infrastructure (PKI) and Rivest, Shamir, and Adleman (RSA)
cryptography to validate signed data from the card. The issuer can
authenticate the legitimacy of the card by validating a unique cryptogram
generated by the card for each payment transaction. These features will
help protect against counterfeit fraud.

Risk Management

EMV introduces localized parameters to define the conditions under which
the issuer will permit the chip card to be used and force transactions online
for authorization under certain conditions such as offline limits being
exceeded.

Transaction Integrity

Payment data such as purchase and cashback amounts are part of the
cryptogram generation and authentication processing, which will help
ensure the integrity of this data across authorization, settlement, and
clearing.

Cardholder Verification

More robust cardholder verification processes and methods such as online
PIN (verified online by issuer) and offline PIN (verified offline by card) will
help protect against lost and stolen fraud.

5.2.2 Card Brand Mandates
Effective April 2013, acquirer processors and sub-processor service providers are required to
support merchant acceptance of EMV chip transactions.

92

2016 Heartland Payment Systems, Inc., All Rights Reserved–HPS Confidential: Sensitive

HPS Integrator’s Guide V 16.1.1

5: EMV Processing Overview

5.2.3 Fraud Liability Shifts
Effective October 2015 (or October 2017 for automated fuel dispensers), a merchant that does
not support EMV assumes liability for counterfeit card transactions.
There are two types of liability shifts:
Table 5-2 Liability Shifts
Liability Shift

Description

Chip Liability Shift

An issuer may charge back a counterfeit fraud transaction that occurred at a
non-EMV POS terminal if the valid card issued was a chip card.

Chip/PIN Liability Shift

An issuer may charge back a lost or stolen fraud transaction that occurred at
an EMV POS terminal that was not PIN-capable if the card involved was a
PIN-preferring chip card. A PIN-preferring chip card is defined as an EMV chip
card that has been personalized so that a PIN CVM option (online PIN or
offline PIN) appears in the card’s CVM list with a higher priority than the
signature option.

5.2.4 PCI Audit Waivers
Effective October 2012, the card brands will waive PCI DSS compliance validation requirements
if the merchant invests in contact and contactless chip payment terminals. For example, VISA’s
Technology Innovation Program (TIP) provides PCI audit relief to qualifying merchants (Level 1
and Level 2 merchants that process more than 1 million VISA transactions annually) when 75
percent of the merchant’s VISA transactions originate at a dual-interface EMV chip-enabled
terminal. MasterCard offers a similar program.

5.4 EMV Online vs. Offline
In the magstripe world, the term “offline” is often associated with certain types of transactions that
may occur when host communications are down, such as voice authorization, deferred
authorization (i.e. store and forward), and forced acceptance (i.e. merchant/acquirer stand-in).
Those same transactions can still occur in the EMV world as well, but there are several additional
uses of the term “offline” for EMV.

5.4.1 Card Authentication
Table 5-6 Card Authentication
Online Card Authentication

vs.

The transaction is sent online to an issuer who
authenticates the CVV in the track data for swiped
transactions, or CVV2 on the back of the card for
manually entered transactions.

Offline Card Authentication
The card may be authenticated offline by the terminal
using a PKI and RSA cryptography to verify that
certain static and/or dynamic data elements have been
digitally signed by the legitimate card issuer.

5.4.2 Cardholder Verification
Table 5-7 Cardholder Verification
Online Cardholder Verification

vs.

The transaction is sent online to an issuer who
verifies that the online PIN or AVS data is correct.

Offline Cardholder Verification
An offline PIN may be securely stored on the card, so
the PIN entered on the PIN entry device may be sent
to the card in plaintext or enciphered format to be
validated by the card.

5.4.3 Authorization
Table 5-8 Authorization
Online Authorization
The transaction is sent online to an issuer who
approves or declines the transaction.

96

vs.

Offline Authorization
Based on the amount of the transaction, and the risk
management criteria established by the card and the
terminal, a transaction may be approved or declined by
the card on behalf of the issuer, either with or without
attempt to go online to the issuer.

6.1.3 Letters of Approval
The EMVCo and PCI approval numbers and/or Letters of Approval (LoAs) can be obtained from
their respective websites:
• http://www.emvco.com/approvals.aspx?id=83
• https://www.pcisecuritystandards.org/approved_companies_providers/approved_pin_trans
action_security.php
The other approval numbers and/or LoAs can be obtained from the device supplier or
manufacturer.

6.2 EMV Solutions
The type of EMV POS solution to be developed is an important consideration as this will
determine the level of expertise needed, the amount of time it will take and whether a full EMV
certification will be required.

6.2.1 Integrated
Integrated solutions typically involve an Electronic Cash Register (ECR) that is connected to a
terminal containing the EMV kernel and providing all EMV functionality including card acquisition
and PIN entry.
Table 6-1 Integrated Solutions
Integrated Solution

Description

Fully Integrated

The terminal provides the EMV functionality, but the ECR still handles
card data and host communication. Therefore, it is in scope for PCI and
full EMV certification.

Semi-Integrated

The terminal not only provides the EMV functionality, but also handles the
host communication, so the ECR does not see the card data. Therefore,
the ECR is not in scope for PCI or full EMV certification. Only a minimal
EMV validation script must be run for semi-integrated solutions.

6.2.2 Standalone
Standalone solutions consist of a terminal that runs the POS software, contains the EMV kernel
and provides all EMV functionality. PIN entry occurs on an internal or external PIN pad and if
contactless is supported, the reader may be integrated into the terminal or be a separate device.
A standalone solution is in scope for PCI and full EMV certification.

6: EMV Development Overview

6.3 EMV Certifications
Magstripe swiped and key entered transactions will continue to be certified directly through
Heartland per the existing processes already in place. However, EMV requires additional
certifications. Each card brand has its own proprietary chip applications that run on EMV cards
bearing their brand. For that reason, each card brand has its own certification requirements that
must be met and submitted for approval.

6.3.1 Test Requirements
The card brand certification requirements must be met for each distinct POS configuration that
will be deployed, which is defined by a unique combination of:
• The kernel software, which includes the Level 2 Contact Application Kernel and/or Level 2
Contactless Application Kernel (payWave, MasterCard Contactless, Expresspay, etc.).
• The terminal application software, which includes the payment application software and
the terminal-to-acquirer communication software.
• The specific terminal configuration, which includes use of a particular EMVCo Level 2
approved kernel configuration for the specific Terminal Type, Terminal Capabilities and
other relevant terminal parameter settings.
• The complete connection path from the terminal to the card brand.
The card brand certification requirements must be met when any of the following occurs:
• A particular POS configuration is deployed for the first time.
• A major upgrade is made to an already deployed POS configuration.
• The terminal hardware and software is upgraded and the change is major according to the
EMVCo Type Approval Bulletin No. 11 (http://www.emvco.com/approvals.aspx?id=108).
Note: Replacing the IFM with another approved IFM is not considered a major change.
• A contact terminal is upgraded to support contactless transactions.
• The terminal application software is upgraded to support additional payment related
functionality such as the partial approval, purchase with cash back, purchase with gratuity,
cardholder application selection, etc.
• The Level 2 kernel configuration is modified.
• The terminal is upgraded to support an additional AID.
• The acquirer modifies its network in such a way that it affects the transaction message
mapping between the POS and the acquirer host that interfaces with the card brand
networks.
• The card brand requests it, for instance, in the scope of the ad-hoc resolution of a field
interoperability issue.
REQUIREMENT

If an EMV POS Solution supports multiple kernel configurations, multiple certifications
will be required, one for each kernel configuration that will be used in production.

6.3.3 Test Tools
To successfully execute the test plans, you need the following:
1. The appropriate test cards.
2. A means of capturing, logging and validating the interaction between the terminal and
cards.
One method to accomplish this is to order all of the required physical test cards from a company
such as FIME, along with their Smartspy tools for logging the interaction. However, because
there are hundreds of different test cases and test cards and the requirements often change for
both, this approach is prohibitively impractical and expensive. Heartland recommends
purchasing test tools instead.
Many EMV test tools are available on the market today that remove the need for physical test
cards and rudimentary card spies. These tools emulate all the required test cards, facilitate
execution of the test cases, capture the interaction between the terminal and the cards in a
readable format, clearly indicate pass/fail results of the test cases and log the results in the
format required for submission to the card brands.
You may use any test tool if it has been approved for use by a card brand for the purpose of
meeting that brand’s certification requirements. Each card brand maintains a list of approved test
tools that have been verified to properly emulate the test cards and execute the test cases
required for certification.
The following tools are approved by all four card brands for both contact and contactless EMV
testing:
• ICC Solutions’ ICCSimTmat Test Manager
• UL Transaction Security’s Collis Brand Test Tool
You may choose to purchase either of these tools or any other tools approved for use by one or
more card brands. Heartland uses the Collis Brand Test Tool for testing our internally developed
applications. If you choose to purchase Collis, Heartland can apply knowledge and expertise of
that tool toward facilitating your testing.

6.3.4 Test Environments
Heartland currently has two EMV test environments:
Table 6-6 Test Environments
Test Environment

Description

Pre-certification

This environment is used for executing the card brand test cases to
ensure a 100% pass rate prior to moving to certification. This
environment can also be used for generic EMV and non-EMV testing
where certain dollar amounts trigger fixed responses from the host.

Certification

This environment is used for executing the card brand test cases for
submission to the card brands for formal certification.

It is essential that you work with POS Integrations to insure you are pointed to the correct test
environment based on the type of testing you are executing.

6.3.5 Test Process
You will need to work with our POS Integrations team to understand and follow their current
certification procedures. The following is only a high-level overview of the process:
Table 6-7 Test Process
Test Process
Certification Setup

Description
A certification analyst will provide you with the appropriate certification request
forms. Once those are returned and processed, the POS Integrations team will set
up the required test accounts, point them to the appropriate environments, provide
you with the corresponding credentials and provide test scripts as follows:
• VISA – No script available. You must configure your test tool according to
configuration being certified and it will specify test case applicability.
• MasterCard – We provide a TSE file that contains your script and must be
imported into your test tool.
• American Express – We provide access to the AMEX Test System (ATS) which
contains your script.
• Discover – We provide a spreadsheet from UL that contains your script.

Card Brand Pre-Certification

Execute all card brand test cases in our pre-certification environment to ensure a
100% pass rate prior to moving to certification. Our certification analyst may request
your terminal logs and transaction receipts if needed to help resolve issues.

Class B Certification

Execute the non-EMV test script provided by our certification analyst. The analysts
will review the results and provide their analysis. Errors are corrected and test
cases re-executed if necessary.

Card Brand Certification

Execute all card brand test cases in our certification environment. The following
actions must be completed depending on card brand:
• VISA – Export XML file for upload to Chip Compliance Reporting Tool (CCRT).
• MasterCard – Export TSEZ file containing terminal logs and validation, host
logs and validation and receipts.
• American Express – Complete user validations and upload terminal logs in
ATS.
• Discover – Indicate results and add comments as needed in provided
spreadsheet.

Card Brand Submission

REQUIREMENT

A certification analyst will ensure that all test cases have been completed then
submit the results to the card brands for approval. The turnaround time for the card
brands to review, approve and return a Letter of Approval is typically 10-15
business days.

Your terminal(s) of choice must have EMVCo Level 2 approved kernel configurations that
match each of the configurations specified in your certification request forms.

7.1.2 Tag, Length, Value (TLV) Data Objects
Data objects are BER-TLV coded, as defined in ISO/IEC 8825:
• The Tag field consists of one or more consecutive bytes. It indicates a class, a type, and a
number. EMV tags are coded on one or two bytes.
• The Length field consists of one or more consecutive bytes that indicate the length of the
following value field.
– If bit 8 of the most significant byte of the length field is set to 0, the length field consists
of only one byte. Bits 7 to 1 code the number of bytes of the value field, for lengths from
1 to 127.
– If bit 8 of the most significant byte of the length field is set to 1, the subsequent bits 7 to
1 code the number of subsequent bytes in the length field. The subsequent bytes code
an integer representing the number of bytes in the value field. Two bytes are necessary
to express lengths from 128 to 255.
• The Value field indicates the value of the data object. If L = 00, the value field is not
present.

7.1.3 Kernel Application Programming Interface (API)
Your terminal will come with a Software Development Kit (SDK) that provides an extraction
layer/library built on top of the EMVCo Level 2 contact approved kernel application that allows
your payment application to run EMV transactions. Discussion of the specific functions/methods
that are part of the SDKs provided by the device manufacturers is outside of the scope of this
document, although the intent of this document is to provide the background needed to
successfully utilize any API.

7.2 EMV Data Elements
7.2.1 Data Conventions
The following sections describe the TLV data objects that come from the terminal, card, and
issuer. The Value column uses the following format conventions:
Table 7-3 Data Conventions
Value

Description

a

Alphabetic data elements contain a single character per byte. The permitted characters are alphabetic
only (a to z and A to Z, upper and lower case).

an

Alphanumeric data elements contain a single character per byte. The permitted characters are
alphabetic (a to z and A to Z, upper and lower case) and numeric (0 to 9).

ans

Alphanumeric Special data elements contain a single character per byte. The permitted characters and
their coding are shown in the Common Character Set table in Annex B of Book 4.
There is one exception: The permitted characters for Application Preferred Name are the non-control
characters defined in the ISO/IEC 8859 part designated in the Issuer Code Table Index associated with
the Application Preferred Name.

b

These data elements consist of either unsigned binary numbers or bit combinations that are defined
elsewhere in the specification.
Binary example: The Application Transaction Counter (ATC) is defined as “b” with a length of two
bytes. An ATC value of 19 is stored as Hex '00 13'.
Bit combination example: Processing Options Data Object List (PDOL) is defined as “b” with the
format shown in Book 3, section 5.4.

cn

Compressed numeric data elements consist of two numeric digits (having values in the range Hex '0'–
'9') per byte. These data elements are left justified and padded with trailing hexadecimal 'F's.
Example: The Application Primary Account Number (PAN) is defined as “cn” with a length of up to ten
bytes. A value of 1234567890123 may be stored in the Application PAN as Hex '12 34 56 78 90 12 3F
FF' with a length of 8.

n

Numeric data elements consist of two numeric digits (having values in the range Hex '0'–'9') per byte.
These digits are right justified and padded with leading hexadecimal zeroes. Other specifications
sometimes refer to this data format as Binary Coded Decimal (“BCD”) or unsigned packed.
Example: Amount, Authorised (Numeric) is defined as “n 12” with a length of six bytes. A value of
12345 is stored in Amount, Authorised (Numeric) as Hex '00 00 00 01 23 45'.

var.

Variable data elements are variable length and may contain any bit combination. Additional information
on the formats of specific variable data elements is available elsewhere.

7.3.1 Tender Processing
For EMV transactions, the transaction amount requiring authorization must be known prior to
card entry and the Amount, Authorised (Tag ‘9F02’) that is used for cryptogram generation must
be set to this amount. This amount would include the base amount plus any of the following
additional amounts:
Table 7-7 Tender Processing
Additional
Amounts

Description

Cashback

If cashback is allowed and entered, Amount, Other (Tag ‘9F03’) must be set to the
cashback amount and this amount must be included in Amount, Authorised (Tag ‘9F02’).

Surcharges

Any surcharges (e.g. taxes, fees, etc.) that are applied must be included in Amount,
Authorized (Tag ‘9F02’).

Tips

For pay-at-the-counter and pay-at-the-table environments, where the cardholder has
access to the PIN pad, it is recommended that the tip amount be specified prior to card
entry and be included in Amount, Authorized (Tag ‘9F02’). The cardholder would be
handed the PIN pad and they would enter their tip, confirm the total, insert/tap their card,
enter their PIN if prompted, and wait for transaction completion before removing their
card and handing back the PIN pad.
For table service environments, the cardholder may still write in their tip later on the
receipt and sign for authorization, in which case the Amount, Authorized (Tag ‘9F02’)
would not include the tip amount.

There are circumstances where the final amount requiring authorization may be adjusted after
setting Amount, Authorised (Tag ‘9F02’) and after the cryptogram has been generated, such as
subtracting items from the sale amount that are not allowed for purchase with certain types of
cards. In this case, it is acceptable that the final authorization amount specified elsewhere in the
host messaging does not match the amount specified in Tag ‘9F02’.

REQUIREMENT

The Amount, Authorised (Tag ‘9F02’) must be set to the transaction amount known at
the time of card acquisition and is used for cryptogram generation. This amount must
not be changed even if the final amount submitted for authorization is different due to
adjustments that may have been applied after cryptogram generation.

HPS Integrator’s Guide V 16.1.1

7.3.2 Card Acquisition
7.3.2.1 Card Swipe
Merchants have not been mandated to accept EMV cards nor have issuers been mandated to
issue EMV cards, so the full migration to EMV may not be completed for several years or
decades. Therefore, EMV chip cards will continue to have magnetic stripes into the foreseeable
future so that they can continue to be used at magstripe only terminals.
If a card is swiped on an EMV terminal, the terminal software must parse the three-digit service
code from the Track 1 or Track 2 data and examine the first digit. If the first digit of the service
code is a 2 or a 6 indicating that the card is a chip card, the terminal must not normally allow the
transaction to be processed using the magstripe data, but rather must prompt the merchant or
customer to insert or tap the card instead.
An appropriate message such as “SWIPE NOT ALLOWED FOR CHIP CARD – INSERT CARD”
should be displayed on the terminal.

REQUIREMENT

EMV solutions must continue to support magnetic stripe transactions, but must force
chip usage if the service code in the Track 2 data is ‘2xx’ or ‘6xx’.

7.3.2.2 Fallback Processing
When a chip card is presented, the card should normally be inserted or tapped and if swiped, the
terminal should prompt to insert the card as described above. However, there are circumstances
where the chip cannot be used and the magnetic stripe may be used instead. This is referred to
as “fallback” and there are two scenarios under which it is allowed:
Table 7-8 Fallback Processing
Fallback Scenario

Description

Technical Fallback

Unable to read chip card due to chip or chip reader failure.

Non-Technical Fallback

Empty application selection candidate list due to no mutually supported AIDs.

Fallback is not allowed in the following scenarios:
• The transaction is declined by the card or the issuer.
• The fallback transaction cannot be online-authorized.
• The card is blocked.
• All applicable AIDs on the chip are blocked.
• The card is withdrawn before the transaction is completed.
• The transaction is canceled or times out before completion.

132

2016 Heartland Payment Systems, Inc., All Rights Reserved–HPS Confidential: Sensitive

HPS Integrator’s Guide V 16.1.1

7: EMV Terminal Interface

When waiting for a fallback card swipe:
• If an EMV card is inserted or tapped, fallback processing must be canceled and the
transaction must be processed as an EMV transaction.
• If the swiped card does not have a service code of ‘2xx’ or ‘6xx’, fallback processing must
be canceled and the transaction must be processed as a regular magstripe transaction.

REQUIREMENT

For fallback transactions, EMV solutions must set the appropriate fallback indicators
in the authorization request message and must otherwise process the transaction as
a standard magnetic stripe transaction.

7.3.3 Application Selection
EMV chip cards are capable of running multiple payment applications. For example, a single
EMV card could be used to make payments from three different credit accounts, two different
debit accounts, two different gift card accounts, and one loyalty account.
Application Identifiers (AIDs) are used to identify and select the application to use, and the
terminal must be loaded with a list of supported AIDs. AIDs consist of three components:
Table 7-9 Application Selection
Component
Registered Application Identifier (RID)

Description
Each card brand has one or more RIDs
Example: A000000003 is VISA’s RID.

Proprietary Application Identifier
Extension (PIX)

Each card brand has one or more PIXs to represent a
particular payment application type.
Example: 1010 is VISA’s PIX for their global credit/debit
application.

Issuer Suffix

Trailing digits that may be added by the issuer, and must be
added if there are multiple applications on the card that
share the same RID and PIX.
Example: A000000003101001 for a VISA credit account
and A000000003101002 for a VISA debit account
on the same card.

2016 Heartland Payment Systems, Inc., All Rights Reserved–HPS Confidential: Sensitive

133

7: EMV Terminal Interface

HPS Integrator’s Guide V 16.1.1

The terminal selects the appropriate application to use for the current transaction as follows:
1. The terminal builds a candidate list of mutually supported applications using one of two
methods:
Table 7-10 Supported Application Methods
Method

Description

Payment System Environment
(PSE) Method

The terminal sends a SELECT command to the card
requesting a file name of “1PAY.SYS.DDF01”, and if the card
supports PSE it will return a directory of supported
applications.

List of AIDs Method

It is recommended that the terminal always try the PSE
method first to increase transaction speed. If the card does
not support PSE, the terminal sends a SELECT command to
the card for each AID supported by the terminal to determine if
the card also supports the AID.

2. If there is more than one mutually supported application in the candidate list, the terminal
either automatically selects an application from the list based on predetermined preference
or displays the list to the cardholder for selection. If displaying the candidate list:
• Display the list in the order specified by the issuer in the Application Priority Indicator
(Tag ‘87’) if present, otherwise display in the order received from the card.
• Display the Application Preferred Name (Tag ‘9F12’) if present and if the Issuer Code
Table Index (Tag ‘9F11’) is present and supported by the terminal.
• Display the Application Label (Tag ‘50’) if present and the Application Preferred Name is
not present or cannot be displayed.
• Display a default application name assigned by the EMV POS Solution if the Application
Preferred Name and Application Label are not present or cannot be displayed.
3. If the terminal automatically selects an application, or if there is only one mutually
supported application in the candidate list, and the Application Priority Indicator (Tag ‘87’)
returned by the card indicates that use of the application must be confirmed, the terminal
must prompt the cardholder for confirmation.
4. The terminal sends a final SELECT command to the card to indicate the selected
application.
5. The card returns the Processing Options Data Object List (PDOL) for the selected
application.

REQUIREMENT

134

Partial selection must be supported for all AIDs. This ensures that all supported
applications are available for selection even if they contain an issuer assigned suffix at the
end of the AID.

7.3.3.2 Debit AIDs
The presence of both of the following data elements identifies the AID as relating to a debit or
prepaid program:
• ISSUER COUNTRY CODE (two digit alpha) (Tag ‘5F55’) with a value ‘5553’ (“US”)
• ISSUER IDENTIFICATION NUMBER (IIN) (Tag ‘42’)
If two or more AIDs have the same IIN, the terminal may assume they access the underlying
funding account and can eliminate all but one of the AIDs with the same IIN from the candidate
list. Which AIDs are eliminated in this case should be configurable. For example, a merchant
might specify their preference such that U.S. Common Debit AIDs will always remain in the
candidate list if present.
If two or more AIDs with different IINs or no specified IINs still remain in the candidate list after
eliminating AIDs with duplicate IINs, the EMV POS Solution must display the list the cardholder
for selection as described in the Application Selection section above.

7.3.4 Initiate Application Processing
Once an application has been selected, the terminal begins processing an EMV transaction with
the card as follows:
1. The terminal sets all the bits in the Transaction Status Information (TSI) and Terminal
Verification Results (TVR) to 0.
2. The terminal sends a GET PROCESSING OPTIONS command to the card to let it know
that the processing of a new transaction is beginning and to provide the card with the
terminal-related data requested by the card in the PDOL.
3. The card returns the Application Interchange Profile (AIP) and the Application File Locator
(AFL).
• The AIP specifies the functions supported by the card, such as offline data
authentication, cardholder verification, issuer authentication, etc.
• The AFL specifies the location of all the data that is relevant to the current transaction
that should be read by the terminal.

2016 Heartland Payment Systems, Inc., All Rights Reserved–HPS Confidential: Sensitive

HPS Integrator’s Guide V 16.1.1

7: EMV Terminal Interface

7.3.5 Read Application Data
Once the application processing has begun and the terminal has received the AFL from the card,
it sends READ RECORD commands to the card to retrieve all of the TLV data objects specified in
the AFL.
If the following sensitive cardholder data is read from the card, it must not be included in
authorization request messages sent to the host:
• 57 – Track 2 Equivalent Data
• 5A – Application PAN
• 5F20 – Cardholder Name
• 5F24 – Application Expiration Date
• 99 – Transaction PIN Data
• 9F0B – Cardholder Name Extended
• 9F1F – Track 1 Discretionary Data
• 9F20 – Track 2 Discretionary Data

REQUIREMENT

Sensitive cardholder data objects must not be sent to the host in authorization or
settlement messages even if received from the card and terminal.

7.3.6 Offline Data Authentication
Once all of the application data has been read, if both the card and the terminal support Offline
Data Authentication, the terminal authenticates the legitimacy of the card.
Based on the AIP received from the card and the capabilities of the terminal, the most secure
mutually supported card authentication method is performed. The available methods from least
to most secure are as follows:
Table 7-11 Offline Data Authentication
Authentication Method

Description

Static Data Authentication (SDA)

The terminal uses a PKI and public key cryptography to authenticate
the digital signature of static data retrieved from the card.

Dynamic Data Authentication (DDA)

The terminal uses a PKI and public key cryptography to authenticate
the digital signature of dynamic data retrieved from the card.

Combined DDA / Application
Cryptogram Generation (CDA)

The terminal uses a PKI and public key cryptography to authenticate
the digital signature of dynamic data retrieved from the card which
includes the application cryptogram.

Bits in the Terminal Verification Results (TVR) are set based on the outcome of the Offline Data
Authentication step.

137

7: EMV Terminal Interface

HPS Integrator’s Guide V 16.1.1

7.3.7 Processing Restrictions
Once the card has been legitimized, the terminal determines the degree of compatibility with the
card by performing the following checks:
Table 7-12 Processing Restrictions
Restriction

Description

Application Version Number

Is the version of the card application supported by terminal?

Application Usage Control

Is the card allowed for the transaction, e.g. is a domestic,
international, or cashback transaction allowed?

Application Effective/Expiration Dates

Is the card application not yet effective or already expired?

Bits in the TVR are set based on the outcome of the Processing Restrictions step.

7.3.8 Cardholder Verification
Once the processing restrictions have been analyzed, the terminal processes the Cardholder
Verification Method (CVM) list returned by the card and attempts to perform the first CVM in the
list that is also supported by the terminal. The following CVMs are supported by EMV cards:
Table 7-13 Cardholder Verification
Verification Method

138

Description

Signature

This method prompts the cardholder to provide a signature that
must match the signature on the back of the card.

Online Enciphered PIN

This method requires the cardholder to enter a PIN that is
encrypted at the PIN entry device before being sent to Heartland
(and subsequently out to the issuer) for validation.

Offline Enciphered PIN

This method requires the cardholder to enter a PIN that is
encrypted at the PIN entry device before being sent to the chip
card for validation.

Offline Enciphered PIN and Signature

This method requires the cardholder to enter a PIN that is
encrypted at the PIN entry device before being sent to the chip
card for validation, and that the cardholder provide a signature
that must match the signature on the back of the card.

Offline Plaintext PIN

This method requires the cardholder to enter a PIN that is not
encrypted before being sent to the chip card for validation.

Offline Plaintext PIN and Signature

This method requires the cardholder to enter a PIN that is not
encrypted before being sent to the chip card for validation, and
that the cardholder provide a signature that must match the
signature on the back of the card.

No CVM Required

This method requires no checks to verify the cardholder.

2016 Heartland Payment Systems, Inc., All Rights Reserved–HPS Confidential: Sensitive

HPS Integrator’s Guide V 16.1.1

7: EMV Terminal Interface

Bits in the TVR are set based on the outcome of the Cardholder Verification step.

REQUIREMENT

The U.S. Common Debit AIDs support Online PIN and No CVM. If Online PIN is obtained,
the transaction must be sent as a PIN debit transaction. If the CVM result is No CVM due
to PIN bypass, the transaction must be sent as a credit (i.e. signature debit) transaction,
and a signature must be obtained unless the transaction qualifies as a no signature
required transaction.

7.3.8.1 PIN Support
From a security and fraud liability standpoint, it is typically in the best interest of the merchant
and cardholder that PIN be prompted and entered if the card is a PIN-preferring card, but there
are circumstances under which PIN entry may be avoided or skipped:
Table 7-14 PIN Support
PIN Support

Description

PIN Disablement

If PIN entry is not feasible because the merchant does not have a customer
facing PIN pad, then all the PIN CVMs should be disabled on the terminal so
that it does not prompt for PIN. In order to deploy this “No PIN” kernel
configuration, it would need to have EMVCo Level 2 approval, and it would
have to be certified with the card brands. If this functionality is supported, PIN
entry is typically enabled/disabled via parameter setting.

PIN Entry Bypass

This is the EMVCo defined process where the terminal prompts for PIN, but at
the direction of the merchant or cardholder the PIN is bypassed and not
entered. In this case, the ‘PIN entry required, PIN pad present, but PIN was not
entered’ bit in the TVR is set to 1, which the Issuer may consider when making
its authorization decision. If this functionality is supported, PIN bypass is
typically enabled/disabled via parameter setting.

PIN Prompt Bypass

This is typically used for small ticket VEPS/QPS transactions where no CVM is
required. The terminal must have a selectable kernel where it can automatically
switch to a “No CVM” configuration if the amount is under the limit. If this
functionality is supported, the CVM required limit is typically specified per card
brand or AID via parameter settings. PIN Prompt Bypass could also be invoked
at the direction of the merchant or cardholder by pressing a “Credit” or
“Signature” button on the terminal.

7.3.9 Terminal Risk Management
Once the cardholder has been verified, the terminal performs the following steps to protect the
acquirer, issuer, and system from fraud:
Table 7-15 Terminal Risk Management
Risk Management

Description

Floor limit Checking

Transactions over the floor limit should be sent to host for online
authorization.

Random transaction Selection

A certain percentage of transactions under the floor limit (which are
normally eligible for offline authorization by terminal and card) should
be randomly selected to go online.

Velocity Checking

After a certain number of consecutive offline transactions are
performed using a particular card, the next transaction using that card
should go online.

Bits in the TVR are set based on the outcome of the Terminal Risk Management step.

7.3.10 Terminal Action Analysis
Once the terminal has completed the previous 4 steps and has set the appropriate bits in the
TVR accordingly, the terminal makes the initial decision as to the disposition of the transaction
based on a bit-by-bit comparison of the TVR with the Terminal Action Codes (TACs) and Issuer
Action Codes (IACs), and sends a GENERATE APPLICATION CRYPTOGRAM (AC) command
to card accordingly:
Table 7-16 Terminal Action Analysis
Scenario

Terminal Action

For each bit in the TVR set to 1,
If the corresponding bit in the
IAC-Denial or TAC-Denial is set to 1,

It indicates that the issuer or acquirer wishes the transaction to be
rejected offline without attempt to go online.
The terminal requests an Application Authorization Cryptogram
(AAC) in this case.

If the corresponding bit in the
IAC-Online or TAC-Online is set to 1,

It indicates that the issuer or acquirer wishes the transaction to be
completed online.
The terminal requests an Authorization Request Cryptogram
(ARQC) in this case.

If the corresponding bit in the
IAC-Default or TAC-Default is set to 1,

It indicates that the issuer or acquirer wishes the transaction to be
rejected offline if it might have been approved online but the
terminal is for any reason unable to process the transaction online.
The terminal requests an AAC in this case.

If there are no corresponding bits in
the TVR set to 1,

140

The terminal may request an ARQC or Transaction Certificate (TC)
depending on the other circumstances of the transaction.

7.3.11 Card Action Analysis
Once the terminal has made its initial decision, the card makes the final decision as to the
disposition of the transaction based on the issuer’s proprietary card risk management criteria and
responds to the GENERATE AC command accordingly:
• Returns a TC to approve the transaction offline. This option is not available to the card if
the terminal has made a preliminary decision to reject the transaction or complete it online.
• Returns an ARQC to complete the transaction online. This option is not available to the
card if the terminal has made a preliminary decision to reject the transaction.
• Returns an AAC to reject the transaction.
Note: If the card returns a TC or AAC cryptogram, the transaction is complete and the remaining
steps are not performed. If the card returns a TC to approve the transaction offline, the
terminal must ensure that the offline approval is sent to the host for settlement.

7.3.12 Online Processing
Once the card has made its final decision, the terminal goes online for processing if the card
returns an ARQC cryptogram in response to the first GENERATE AC command.
Online processing is performed to ensure that the issuer can review and authorize or reject
transactions that are outside acceptable limits of risk defined by the issuer, the payment system,
or the acquirer.
In general, online processing of EMV transactions is the same as online processing of magstripe
transactions except for the addition of the ARQC cryptogram and other chip card data sent in the
request, and the Authorization Response Cryptogram (ARPC), issuer scripts, and other chip card
data that may be received in the response.

HPS Integrator’s Guide V 16.1.1

7.3.12.1 Offline Authorization
If the card returns an ARQC to go online but the issuer cannot be reached, the merchant may
elect to inform that card that it cannot go online and ask for an offline approval. This is typically
accomplished by setting the Authorisation Response Code to Y3, although there may some other
way to indicate this desire based on your terminal’s specific API/SDK. The terminal will perform
the Completion step below.
If the card returns a TC cryptogram, the transaction is offline approved and the terminal must
ensure that the offline approval is sent to the host for settlement. No additional store-and-forward
or stand-in processing is required. If the card returns an AAC cryptogram, the transaction is not
offline approved and the merchant may elect to proceed with the store-and forward or stand-in
processing as described below.

7.3.12.2 Deferred Authorization (Store-and-Forward)
If the card returns an ARQC to go online but the issuer cannot be reached, the merchant may
elect to store the transaction and submit it later for authorization. The merchant does so at their
own risk as the transaction may be later declined, ask your merchants if they want to support this
functionality.
It is recommended that the Offline Authorization step above be performed first to see if the card
will approve offline. However, if the merchant does not support offline authorizations or if the card
returns an AAC cryptogram indicating that it is unwilling to approve offline, the following
store-and-forward process may be followed:
1. The terminal stores the transaction details including the original ARQC cryptogram and
associated chip data.
2. Later, the terminal uploads its batch of authorization requests that include the ARQCs.
3. The acquirer submits the authorization requests, most of which are approved online.
4. Repeated attempts at authorization for declined transactions are permitted, but declined
transactions must eventually be discarded.
5. The acquirer submits a clearing record for each approved transaction, using the ARQC for
online approved transactions and the authorization response code returned in the
authorization response.

7.3.12.3 Forced Acceptance (Stand-In)
If the card returns an ARQC to go online but the issuer cannot be reached, the merchant may
elect to stand-in for the transaction and submit it for settlement. The merchant does so at their
own risk as the transaction may not clear or may incur a chargeback due to no authorization, ask
your merchants if they want to support this functionality.
It is recommended that the Offline Authorization step above be performed first to see if the card
will approve offline. However, if the merchant does not support offline authorizations or if the card
returns an AAC cryptogram indicating that it is unwilling to approve offline, the following stand-in
process may be followed:
1. Check if the transaction amount is below the Stand-in Floor Limit for this card type.
Proceed if the transaction amount is below the Stand-in Floor Limit; otherwise, do not
stand-in.
2. Check if the card is domestic (i.e., U.S.-issued). This can be determined by ensuring that
the Issuer Country Code (Tag 5F28) = “840”. International cards pose a higher risk and
should not be approved via stand-in authorization. Proceed if card is domestic; otherwise,
do not stand-in.
3. Apply the TVR Mask to the transaction’s Terminal Verification Results (Tag 95) value. If
any of the bits in the TVR match the corresponding bits in the TVR Mask, then a condition
exists that indicates the transaction should not be approved via stand-in authorization. The
recommended TVR Mask is “FC 50 FC 20 00” which means that if any of the following
conditions exists, the transaction should not be approved via stand-in authorization:

Proceed if a bitwise AND of the TVR and TVR Mask bits are all zero; otherwise, do not
approve the transaction.
4. Use the TSI Mask and the transaction’s Transaction Status Indicator (Tag ‘9B’) value to
check that the required EMV transaction steps were performed. If any of the bits in the TSI
are zero in the corresponding bits of the TSI Mask, then a required EMV transaction step
was not performed. The recommended TSI Mask is “E8 00” which means that the following

5. If all of the above steps pass, approve the transaction and submit it for settlement;
otherwise, decline the transaction and/or proceed with Voice Authorization.

7.3.13 Issuer Authentication
The authorization response message from the issuer may contain Issuer Authentication Data
(Tag ‘91’), which contains the ARPC.
If the Issuer Authentication Data is received in the authorization response message and the AIP
indicates that card supports issuer authentication, the Issuer Authentication Data is sent to card
in the EXTERNAL AUTHENTICATE command.
Bits in the TVR are set based on outcome of issuer authentication.

7.3.14 Issuer-to-Card Script Processing
The issuer may provide command scripts to be delivered to the card by the terminal to perform
functions that are not necessarily relevant to the current transaction but are important for
continued functioning of the card application.
Multiple scripts may be provided with an authorization response and each may contain any
number of Issuer Script Commands.
Two separate script tags are available for use by the issuer.
• Issuer scripts with Tag ‘71’ are processed prior to issuing the final GENERATE AC
command.
• Issuer scripts with Tag ‘72’ are processed after issuing the final GENERATE AC command.
Bits in the TVR are set based on outcome of issuer-to-card script processing and Issuer Script
Results are made available for sending for reversals or settlement.

REQUIREMENT

If issuer scripts are received in the host response, they must be processed whether the
transaction was approved or declined.

7.3.15 Completion
Whether the terminal receives an authorization response message as a result of online
processing or whether it receives an approval or rejection for a transaction that was unable to go
online based on TAC/IAC-Default, it completes the transaction by requesting either a TC (if an
approval was obtained), or an AAC (if the issuer’s instruction is to reject the transaction) from the
card by a second GENERATE AC command.
The Authorization Response Code (Tag ‘8A’) should be set by the terminal based on the online or
offline disposition as follows:

The card will respond to the 2nd GENERATE AC command as follows:
• If a TC was requested, the card returns either a TC or an AAC.
• If an AAC was requested, the card returns an AAC.

REQUIREMENT

The Authorisation Response Code (Tag ‘8A’) is not returned by the issuer or card brands,
and thus is not included in the authorization response message from the host. The terminal
must set Tag ‘8A’ based on the disposition of the transaction, whether online or offline.

7.3.16 Card Removal
When the transaction flow is complete, the cardholder should be prompted to remove their card
before receipts are printed. It is recommended that the terminal also beep at regular intervals
until the card is removed as an audible reminder to the cardholder to remove their card.

REQUIREMENT

If the card is removed prematurely before transaction flow completion, the transaction
must be canceled, and if the transaction was approved online a reversal must be sent.

7.4 Contactless Transaction Flow
The major difference between EMV contactless transactions and EMV contact transactions is
transaction speed. The information transmitted between the chip card and POS terminal is done
in a more succinct manner and many of the transaction flow steps are performed either before or
after the card leaves the proximity of the reader. See Figure 7-2.

The focus of the following sections is to highlight some of the specific differences from the
contact EMV flow. A summary of the differences is as follows:
Table 7-18 Contact EMV Flow Differences
Step Name

Description

Application Selection

The highest priority mutually supported application is automatically
selected by the contactless card reader.

Initiate Application Processing

This step includes the Terminal Risk Management, Terminal Action
Analysis, and Card Action Analysis processing.

Read Application Data

The chip card may be removed from the proximity of the reader
after this step.

Cardholder Verification

The offline enciphered/plaintext PIN CVMs are not supported for
contactless transactions.

Issuer Update Processing

This is an optional step that encompasses the Issuer
Authentication and Issuer-to-Card Script processing, and would
require re-presentment of the card into the proximity of the reader.
This is currently not supported.

7.4.1 Pre-Processing
To minimize the duration in which the card must remain within the reader’s radio frequency (RF)
field, the reader may obtain the transaction amount and perform some risk management checks
prior to prompting for card presentment. This pre-processing is performed prior to powering on
the contactless interface.

7.4.2 Discovery Processing
Discovery Processing is performed by the reader to poll for the presence of contactless cards
that may have entered the reader’s Radio Frequency (RF) field.

7.4.3 Application Selection
Similar to contact EMV, but the terminal builds a candidate list of mutually supported applications
using the mandatory Proximity Payment System Environment (PPSE) method, whereby the
terminal sends a SELECT command to the card and the card returns a directory of supported
applications. The List of AIDs method is not used for contactless.
If there is more than one mutually supported application in the candidate list, the terminal
automatically selects an application from the list based on predetermined preference, which may
be to choose the application of highest priority according the Application Priority Indicator (Tag
‘87’) returned by the card.

7.4.4 Initiate Application Processing
This step includes:
• Path Determination
• Terminal Risk Management
• Terminal Action Analysis
• Card Action Analysis

7.4.4.1 Path Determination
The contactless path(s) that are mutually supported by the card and reader are determined and a
contactless path (EMV mode or magstripe mode) is chosen to process the transaction.
Subsequent transaction processing is performed according to the requirements of the
contactless path chosen.

7.4.4.2 Terminal Risk Management
Similar to contact EMV, but only floor limit checking is performed for contactless transactions.
Random transaction selection and velocity checking is not performed for contactless
transactions.

7.4.4.3 Terminal Action Analysis
Same as contact EMV, except that the TACs and IACs may be different for contactless.

7.4.4.4 Card Action Analysis
Same as contact EMV.

7.4.5 Read Application Data
Same as contact EMV.

7.4.6 Card Read Complete
The card may be removed from the reader’s RF field at this point. The reader determines
whether all mandatory data elements for the transaction were returned by the card, and
terminates the transaction if they were not.
All of the remaining steps are performed after the card has left the proximity of the reader.

7.4.7 Processing Restrictions
Same as contact EMV.

7.4.8 Offline Data Authentication
Similar to contact EMV, but with some variances. For example, Visa uses Fast Dynamic Data
Authentication (fDDA) and MasterCard does not support SDA or DDA for contactless.

7.4.9 Cardholder Verification
Similar to contact EMV, but the offline enciphered/plaintext CVMs are not supported for
contactless. In addition, contactless includes support for a new CVM which occurs on a separate
device such as a mobile phone that is used to emulate a contactless card.
Each card brand has a different term for this new CVM:

7.4.11 Completion
Similar to contact EMV, except that there is no request for a TC or AAC after online processing
since the card has already been removed from the proximity of the reader.

7.4.12 Issuer Update Processing
This optional step to validate the ARPC cryptogram and apply issuer scripts to the card would
require re-presentment of the card into the proximity of the reader and is not currently supported
by most cards or readers.

7.5 EMV Receipts
7.5.1 Approval Receipts
In addition to the magstripe receipt requirements, the following additional items must be included
on EMV receipts:

(AID)

Use Tag ‘4F’ if available, else Tag ‘84’ if available, else Tag ‘9F06’.

APPLICATION CRYPTOGRAM
TYPE

Use “ARQC”, “TC”, or “AAC” based on the final cryptogram generated for the
transaction.

APPLICATION CRYPTOGRAM

Contents of Tag ‘9F26’ for the final cryptogram generated for the transaction.

METHOD (CVM)

Based on the CVM Results (Tag ‘9F34’), either print a signature line, “PIN
VERIFIED”, and/or “NO SIGNATURE REQUIRED”. If the CVM Results indicate
a failure, or “No CVM Required” when that was not the expected result, a
signature line should be printed.

Chapter 8: EMV Parameter Interface
8.1 Introduction
A table-driven EMV Parameter Data Load (EMV PDL) is available and required for all terminals
processing EMV transactions. These tables consist of various terminal capabilities, supported
applications and keys used for processing EMV. The Heartland network will maintain five Tables
of EMV PDL information:

Table-ID 30

Terminal Data

Table-ID 40

Public Key Data

The network will relay to the POS which table data it needs to download by sending Table
Versions and Flags to it in Table-ID 10.
Note: A Table Version of ### and Flag of @ indicate that the table is not applicable to the POS
terminal and that the table must not be requested by the POS terminal.
The EMV PDL system was designed to maintain a specific set of data for each EMV card
acceptance device based on the particular certified configuration of that device being utilized by
the merchant. The data set is linked to the following identifiers:
Platform

Merchant/Company ID

Location/Unit ID

Terminal/Device ID

Exchange/Portico

12-digit Merchant ID Number

N/A

4-digit Terminal Number

NWS

4-char Company ID

15-char Terminal Location ID

4-char Unique Device ID

VAPS

4-digit Company Number

11-digit Unit Number

2-digit Terminal ID

In practice, a merchant location could have multiple devices that are the same and are using the
same certified configuration, so it is not necessary to request an EMV PDL for each of these
devices.
For example, a site may be able to set up one PDL for the inside terminals and one PDL for the
outside terminals and the POS controller/aggregator could pull those two PDLs from the host and
subsequently push the data out to all the devices as appropriate.

Some of the tables must be downloaded in multiple blocks, and the POS must keep track of the

received. When the POS receives a PDL-EMV End-Of-Table Flag of Y, it sends a PDL-EMV
Parameter Type of 07 to confirm receipt of that table.
Use the SpiDr transaction type PDL.

E: EMV Field Definitions

Appendix E: EMV Field Definitions
This section provides a detailed definition of EMV Data fields passed between the terminal and
the host when processing EMV transactions. The components of each field consist of the tag,
length, and value (TLV) subfields and a field separator. The TLV fields may be in any order.
Note: Usage conditions are provided for each field (conditional, mandatory, etc.).
For all fields: If the field is received from the reader, the POS must send it to
Heartland even if its usage is notated as conditional.
Differences in TLV Transmission to Host
The format of these fields is dependent upon the network platform you use (8583, Exchange, Portico, NTS, Z01,
SpiDr).

Example: How do you send Amount, Authorised of $1234.56 to the host?
The TLV would be 9F0206000000123456 (hex). See the binary and ASCII Hex

Tag:

9F26

Description:

This field contains the cryptogram returned by the chip card in response to the Generate
AC command.
There are four types of Application Cryptogram:
• ARQC (Authorization Request Cryptogram): Used in Online processing. This is a
cryptogram requested by the POS and generated by the Chip Card at the end of the first
round of Card Action Analysis step for transactions requiring online authorization. It is
included in the authorization request or full financial request sent to the Issuer and it
allows the Issuer to verify the validity of the Chip Card and message. When validated by
the Issuer, the ARQC confirms that the Chip Card has not been copied or changed.
• TC (Transaction Certificate): A type of cryptogram generated by the card for online and
offline transactions to indicate that the transaction was completed and approved by the
chip card.
• AAC (Application Authentication Cryptogram): A type of cryptogram generated by
the Chip Card when a transaction is declined (at the end of offline or online declined
transaction) to indicate the card declined the transaction.
• ARPC (Authorization Response Cryptogram): Used in Online processing. A
cryptogram generated by the Issuer in response to an ARQC. It is sent in the
authorization response back to the acquirer Host to the POS. The POS sends this
cryptogram back to the Chip Card with a response code accepting or declining the
transaction. The Chip Card’s receipt and validation of the ARPC confirms approval
response from the Issuer and ensures that it is communicating with the valid Issuer. This
cryptogram is also typically used to allow the Chip Card to reset counters.

For online transactions, the terminal should generate the value as follows:
• 00 = Online approved. Should be sent to card at 2nd GENERATE AC if the host
response code indicates any approval, including partial approvals or card verifications.
• 05 = Online declined. Should be sent to card at 2nd GENERATE AC if the host response
code indicates any decline, i.e. anything that is not an approval. Also used if a partial
approval from the host is rejected at the terminal.
For offline transactions, the terminal should generate the value as follows:
• Y1 = Offline approved. Should be sent to host in offline approval advice if the card
approves offline at 1st GENERATE AC before attempt to go online.
• Z1 = Offline declined. Should be sent to host in offline decline advice if card declines
offline at 1st GENERATE AC before attempt to go online, or at 2nd GENERATE AC due
to bad ARPC cryptogram.
• Y3 = Unable to go online, offline approved. Should be sent to card at 2nd GENERATE
AC to request offline approval after failed attempt to go online. Should be sent to host in
offline approval advice if the card approves offline at 2nd GENERATE AC.
• Z3 = Unable to go online, offline declined. Should be sent to host in offline decline
advice if the card declines offline at 2nd GENERATE AC and the transaction is not
eligible for store-and-forward or stand-in processing.

AVS

See Address Verification System.

3-D Secure™

Three-Domain Secure™ (merchant, acquirer, issuer). A VISA-approved
Authentication Method that is the global authentication standard for Electronic
Commerce Transactions.

AAC (Application
Authentication
Cryptogram)

A type of cryptogram generated by the Chip Card when a transaction is declined
(at the end of offline or online declined transaction) to indicate the card declined
the transaction.
Other types of cryptograms are ARQC, TC, ARPC, AAR.

ABA Transit Number

The ABA Transit Number, known as the routing transit number (RTN), is a
nine-digit bank code, used in the United States. It appears on the bottom of
negotiable instruments, such as checks, identifying the financial institution on
which it was drawn.

AC (Application
Cryptogram)

This is a generic term to describe an application cryptogram. It is generated from
data elements contained in either the online authorization request to the Issuer, or
the final financial transaction required for clearing and settlement. There are four
types of Application Cryptograms (ARQC, TC, AAC, ARPC).

ACH

See Automated Clearing House.

ACI

See Authorization Characteristics Indicator.

Acquirer

A company that enters into contractual relationships with merchants, therefore
allowing the merchant to accept credit/debit cards. Heartland Payment Systems is
an acquirer.

Acquiring Financial
Institution

An acquiring financial institution (or “acquirer”) contracts with the bank and the
merchants to enable credit card transaction.

Acquiring Host

The processing system which communicates with the card acceptor or a
communications network processor and is responsible for receiving the data
relating to a transaction and obtaining an approval or denial for the transaction.
The system maintains reconciliation totals for all financial transactions.

Action Codes

There are 2 sets of action codes:
• TACs (Terminal Actions Codes held in the POS terminal) and
• IACs (Issuer Action Codes read from the Chip Card).
Each of these sets of action codes contain 3 codes which are compared to the
TVR:
• Denial action codes are used to determine if the transaction should be declined.
• Online action codes are used to determine if the transaction required online
authorization, and in the event that the terminal is unable to go online.
• Default action codes are used to determine if the transaction should be
declined.

Address Verification
System

A service supported by Visa, MasterCard, Discover and American Express that

used by liquor and tobacco outlets, bars and casinos.

Agents

Those who sell bankcard services to merchants on behalf of ISOs, acquirers and
processors. Also known as merchant level salespeople (MLSs) and independent
sales agents (ISAs), most agents are independent contractors. Others are paid
employees of ISOs, acquirers and processors.

AID (Application Identifier)

Names of applications supported by the POS. The POS obtains the DF names
from the Card by issuing SELECT and READ RECORD commands. The POS
AIDs are compared with the Chip Card DF Names to find a mutually supported
application. *POS and Chip Card can support multiple AIDs.
The AID structure is an ISO entity defined in the ISO7816 standard and is made
up of two elements:
• The RID (Registered Identification Provider Identifier) is five (5) bytes and
identifies the scheme. (See RID for more detailed explanation).
• The PIX (Proprietary Application Identification Extension) is a variable length
field from 0 to 11 bytes long and is used to identify the different applications
offered. Each brand under a specific scheme normally have a unique PIX.
Example of two AID’s for VISA:
• RID: A000000003
PIX: 1010
AID: A0000000031010
PRODUCT: Visa Credit or Debit
• RID: A000000003

ARPC (Authorization
Response Cryptogram)

Used in Online processing. A cryptogram generated by the Issuer in response to
an ARQC. It is sent in the authorization response back to the acquirer Host to the
POS. The POS sends this cryptogram back to the Chip Card with a response code
accepting or declining the transaction. The Chip Card’s receipt and validation of
the ARPC confirms approval response from the Issuer and ensures that it is
communicating with the valid Issuer. This cryptogram is also typically used to
allow the Chip Card to reset counters.

ARQC (Authorization
Request Cryptogram)

Used in Online processing. This is a cryptogram requested by the POS and
generated by the Chip Card at the end of the first round of Card Action Analysis
step for transactions requiring online authorization. It is included in the
authorization request or full financial request (B2) sent to the Issuer and it allows
the Issuer to verify the validity of the Chip Card and message. When validated by
the Issuer, the ARQC confirms that the Chip Card has not been copied or
changed.

The Chip Card contains a list of cardholder verification methods (CVM) it supports,
and the conditions under which they should be applied. The POS must navigate
through this list and attempt the first method it finds for which the condition is
met. If a method fails, the POS must check whether additional methods are
allowed. For example, a list might contain the following:
• Signature
• Online enciphered PIN
• Offline enciphered PIN
• Offline enciphered PIN and signature
• Offline plaintext PIN
• Offline plaintext PIN and signature

Cryptogram Generation)

Used in Offline processing. One of the three methods of Offline Data
Authentication. This applies the same requirements of DDA with an additional step
during Chip Card analysis so it is the most secure option. It offers protection
against counterfeit and skimming and protects against man-in-the-middle attacks.
The Chip Card generates a dynamic signature using card private key, in addition
to the application cryptogram, to prove that the Chip Card authenticated during
DDA was the same card that provided the application cryptogram.

CDOL1 (Card Data Object
List)

A list of data objects (tags and lengths) that are personalized on the Chip Card to
make a decision on whether to approve or decline a transaction. They are read
from the Card by the POS and used for the generation of the first cryptogram. The
POS will send the values of these data objects together with the first Generate AC
Command.

CDOL2 (Card Data Object
List)

A list of data objects (tags and lengths) that are personalized on the Chip Card to
make a decision on whether to approve or decline a transaction. They are read

There are 3 types of actions indicated by the CID:
• AAC is generated whenever a card declines a transaction
• ARQC is generated whenever a card requests online authorization
• TC is generated whenever a card approves a transaction.
In addition, the card may also return a reason or advice code (e.g. service not

Contact Chip Card

With a contact Chip Card, the embedded chip must come into physical contact
with the chip reader for the payment transaction to occur. The Chip Card must
remain in contact with the reader for the duration of the transaction. The terminal
provides power to the chip to enable the chip to process.

Contactless Card

These cards are also known as Proximity cards or NFC cards. These cards
communicate with a reader through a RFID (radio frequency interface device) by
waving or tapping the card on the designated area on the terminal. With a
contactless Chip Card, the embedded chip must come within sufficient proximity of
the reader (a maximum of 4cm) for information to flow between the chip and the
acceptance terminal.
The terminal provides power to the chip to enable the chip to process but the card
does not have to remain in the device through the end of the transaction. This
minimizes the amount of time the card must be held within proximity of a reader.
Transmission of information is faster between the Card and the Terminal with
contactless. And, additional steps may be performed after the card has left the
proximity of the reader.
The contactless card has an embedded RF antenna. It has longer life and higher
reliability than a contact card.
This contactless card method is the foundation for acceptance of mobile
payments.

Issuer

A company that enters into contractual relationships with consumers and/or
businesses through the issuance of plastic credit/debit cards. An issuer is also
known as a “card issuing center.” Examples of issuers are Bank of America and
Citi-Bank.

Issuer Authentication

EMVCO: Validation of the issuer by the Chip Card to ensure the integrity of the
authorization response.
If the auth response contains an ARPC (Authorization Response Cryptogram), the
Terminal sends the cryptogram to the Chip Card. The Card then performs Issuer
Authentication by validating the response cryptogram to verify that the response
came from the genuine Issuer.
This process prevents criminals from circumventing the Chip Card’s security
features by simulating online processing and fraudulently approving a transaction
to reset counters and indicators.
If this step fails, subsequent transactions for the Chip Card will be sent online for
authorization until Issuer Authentication is successful.

Issuer Script

This is a string of commands sent to the chip card from an issuer in a transaction
response. The issuer can update securely the contents that are stored on chip

Offline Data Authentication

Definition
This is a method the POS uses to authenticate a Chip Card using public-key
cryptography. This authentication check protects against counterfeit and
skimming.
There are three methods of authentication that may be used:
• SDA
• DDA
• CDA
The method chosen is determined by the Issuer depending upon Chip Card
capability. Only one method of offline data authentication is performed during a
transaction.

Offline Decline

A transaction that is declined at the point of transaction between the Chip Card
and POS only without interaction with the Host and Issuer (no authorization
response from the Issuer).

Offline Enciphered PIN

A card verification method (CVM). In this method, the PIN is entered at the POS
device. The POS encrypts the entered PIN before sending it to the Chip Card
(using public key encryption). The Chip Card decrypts PIN and compares with the
reference PIN in its memory.
This method assists with prevention of counterfeit and skimming through the use
of cryptography.
Terminals that support Offline Enciphered PIN must also support the less secure
Offline Plaintext PIN method.

Offline PIN Verification

The process whereby a cardholder-entered PIN is passed to the Chip Card for
comparison to a PIN value stored secretly on the Card.
This method assists with detection of a lost or stolen card.

Offline Plaintext PIN

A card verification method (CVM). The cardholder enters a PIN at the entry
device. The entry device does not encrypt the PIN before sending it to the Chip
Card
This is commonly used by cards that cannot support the more secure Offline
Enciphered PIN method.
Terminals that support Offline Plaintext PIN must also support Offline Enciphered
PIN method.

Online Card Authentication

Used in Online processing. When Chip Card and Terminal agree to send a
transaction online, the Chip Card generates a cryptogram, the ARQC
(Authorization Request Cryptogram). The Issuer may respond with an ARPC
(Authorization Response Cryptogram).

Open-to-Buy (OTB)

An inquiry transaction used to request the unused credit amount available for the
account at the time of the transaction. The OTB is the amount of credit left on an
account. For example, before a purchase, a customer has $500.00 OTB. The
customer purchases $200.00 worth of products. After the sale, the OTB returned
in the response will be $300.00.

Owning Host

Owning Host refers to one of several instances of the VAPS application suite that
“owns” a particular terminal. These instances are geographically separated across
the country. Any of these Hosts can initiate the authorization of a financial request
(1200) with the issuer, but the Owning Host is the only Host that can process the
capture or collect for that transaction.

Partial Authorization

A process to complete a transaction if the full amount requested is not approved
but a partial portion of the requested amount is approved. A merchant must be set
up for this capability. If a merchant is set up for this capability, the Issuer response
will contain the full amount requested or a lesser or partial amount authorized.

Pay at the Pump (PATP)

The ability to use a payment card at a self-service island for the petroleum
industry. See ICR, AFD, CAT, or CRIND.

(PCI)

The PCI denotes the debit, credit, prepaid, and POS cards and associated
businesses. The term is sometimes more specifically used to refer to the Payment
Card Industry Security Standards Council (PCI SSC) an independent council
originally formed with the goal of managing the ongoing evolution of the Payment
Card Industry Data Security Standards.

Payment Card Industry
Compliance Acceleration
Program

Under the CAP plan, acquirers are required to validate Level 1 and Level 2
merchant compliance with PIN security. This means that Level 1 and Level 2
merchants must not use payment devices such as PIN pads, and encourages the
use of unique encryption keys for every device. For Level 3 and Level 4
merchants, acquirers must establish a thorough compliance program for those
merchants. According to VISA, as of November 1, 2007, acquirers whose
transactions qualify for lower interchange rates available in the VISA and Interlink
tiers must ensure that the merchants generating the transactions are PCI
compliant in order to receive this benefit.

Payment Card Industry
Data Security Standard
(PCI-DSS)

The Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard is a worldwide information
security standards assembled by the Payment Card Industry Security Standards
Council (PCI SSC). The standard was created to help organizations that process
card payments prevent credit card fraud through increased controls around data
and its exposure to compromise. The standard applies to all organizations which
hold, process, or pass cardholder information from any card branded with the logo
of one of the card brands.

Script Commands (Issuer
Scripts)

Issuers can return script commands to Chip Cards in online responses.
Scripts can block chips, and change Chip Card offline limits. Scripts may not be
relevant to the current transaction but are important for the continued functioning
of the ICC.
A script may contain commands not known to the terminal, but the terminal must
deliver each command to the ICC individually.

SDA (Static Data
Authentication)

One of the three methods of Offline Data Authentication. SDA authenticates SAD

personalization of the card. This is a Terminal function.
Each Chip Card is personalized with an Issuer public key certificate and static
signed application data composed of data elements personalized onto the card
and signed with Issuer private key. The POS validates this cryptographic
signature/value.
During SDA processing, the Chip Card is passive and the Terminal is active. The
Chip Card provides the data to be validated but the POS carries out all the
computation.
This protects against some types of counterfeit fraud, ensuring that the data has
not been fraudulently altered since original chip card personalization. This does
not protect against skimming.
Each terminal should be able to store 6 certification authority public keys per
Registered Application Provider Identifier (RID).
