Speaking of Stripe, when will they support 3d secure or however it's called this year?

The card I mostly use for online impulses purchases is from a semi paranoid bank that turns down non 3d secure transactions by default. Sometimes they call you for confirmation.

Needless to say, that means no impulse purchases from Stripe using merchants. And no buying coffees for anyone.

Guess it's cheaper for me in the long run...

Think Stripe already support this out of the box https://docs.stripe.com/payments/3d-secure. I think this is also a legal (maybe not legal but financial regulator or whatever there called) requirement in the UK so most if not all payments use it?

The EU requires 2FA because of the PSD2 directive. In practice, that means that 3D Secure is needed for a huge proportion of card payments in the EU. Stripe definitely supports it, they wouldn’t be able to compete in the EU otherwise.
