Overview of Electronic Payments
• The availability of appropriate e-payment method is a crucial element of e-business.
• Basic Assessment for the e-business owner/ management. Which methods of e-payment will the business be ready for – credit
card, e-check, e-cash? Will traditional payment methods i.e cash, paper checks be accepted? Or will a combination of both traditional and e-payment method be
accepted?

Requirements for e-payments
• Atomicity– Money is not lost or created during a transfer
• Good atomicity– Money and good are exchanged atomically
• Non-repudiation– No party can deny its role in the transaction
– Digital signatures

Two storage methods
• On-line– Individual does not have possession personally of electronic cash
– Trusted third party, e.g. online bank, holds customers’ cash accounts
• Off-line– Customer holds cash on smart card or software wallet
– Fraud and double spending require tamper-proof encryption

Desirable Properties of Digital Money
• Universally accepted
• Transferable electronically
• Divisible
• Non-forgeable, non-stealable
• Private (no one except parties know the amount)
• Anonymous (no one can identify the payer)
• Work off-line (no on-line verification needed)
No known system satisfies all.

Types of E-payments
• E-cash
• Electronic wallets
• Smart card
• Credit card
![Page 10: Electronic Payment Systems](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061116/54663cd2b4af9f86058b4adb/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Electronic Cash
• Primary advantage is with purchase of items less than $10– Credit card transaction fees make small purchases unprofitable
– Micropayments
o Payments for items costing less than $1

1. Consumer buys e-cash from Bank2. Bank sends e-cash bits to consumer (after charging that amount plus fee)3. Consumer sends e-cash to merchant4. Merchant checks with Bank that e-cash is valid (check for forgery or fraud)5. Bank verifies that e-cash is valid6. Parties complete transaction: e.g., merchant present e-cash to issuing back for deposit once goods or services are delivered
Consumer still has (invalid) e-cash

Electronic Cash Issues
• E-cash must allow spending only once
• Must be anonymous, just like regular currency– Safeguards must be in place to prevent counterfeiting
– Must be independent and freely transferable regardless of nationality or storage mechanism
• Divisibility and Convenience
• Complex transaction (checking with Bank)– Atomicity problem
![Page 13: Electronic Payment Systems](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061116/54663cd2b4af9f86058b4adb/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Advantages and Disadvantages of Electronic Cash
• Advantages– More efficient, eventually meaning lower prices
– Lower transaction costs
– Anybody can use it, unlike credit cards, and does not require special authorization
• Disadvantages– Tax trail non-existent, like regular cash
– Money laundering
– Susceptible to forgery
![Page 14: Electronic Payment Systems](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061116/54663cd2b4af9f86058b4adb/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Electronic Cash Security
• Complex cryptographic algorithms prevent double spending– Anonymity is preserved unless double spending is attempted
• Serial numbers can allow tracing to prevent money laundering– Does not prevent double spending, since the merchant or
consumer could be at fault

stored on a central server
• eWallet– Developed by Launchpad Technologies– Free wallet software that stores credit card and personal information on
users’ computer, not on a central server; info is dragged into payment form from eWallet
• Microsoft Wallet– Comes pre-installed in Internet Explorer
– All information is encrypted and password protected
– Microsoft Wallet Merchant directory shows merchants setup to accept Microsoft Wallet

Smart Cards
• Plastic card containing an embedded microchip • Available for over 10 years• So far not successful in U.S., but popular in Europe,
Australia, and Japan• Unsuccessful in U.S. partly because few card readers
available• Smart cards gradually reappearing in U.S.; success
depends on:– Critical mass of smart cards that support applications– Compatibility between smart cards, card-reader devices, and
applications

Credit Cards• Credit card provides a card holder credit
to make purchase up to amount fixed by a card issuer.
• In B2C business, it continues to be the most used form of payment system given its high convenience.
• Entities that involve in the credit card payment system include
- Card holder- Merchant (seller)- Card Issuer (Your bank)- Acquirer (merchant’s financial institution- Card Association (Visa, Master Card etc)- Third party processor

Payment Acceptance and Processing
• Merchants must set up merchant accounts to accept payment cards
• Law prohibits charging payment card until merchandise is shipped
• Payment card transaction requires:– Merchant to authenticate payment card
– Merchant must check with card issuer to ensure funds are available and to put hold on funds needed to make current charge
– Settlement occurs in a few days when funds travel through banking system into merchant’s account

Risk in using Credit cards
• Customer uses a stolen card or account number to fraudulently purchase goods or service online
• Family members use bankcard to order goods/ services online, but have not been authorized to do so.
• Customer falsely claims that he or she did not receive a shipment
• Hackers find the ways into an e-commerce merchant’s payment processing system and then issue credits to hacker card account numbers.

Risk in using Credit cards Extra protection when there's no card
Card-not-present (CNP) merchants must take extra precaution against fraud exposure and associated losses. Anonymous scam artists bet on the fact that many Visa fraud prevention features do not apply in this environment. Follow these recommendations to help prevent fraud in your card-not-present transactions.
Quick steps to ensure against CNP fraudObtain an authorization.
1. Verify the card's legitimacy:
a. Ask the customer for the card expiration date, and include it in your authorization request. An invalid or missing expiration date might indicate that the customer does not have the actual card in hand.
b. Use fraud prevention tools such as Visa's Address Verification Service (AVS), Card Verification Value 2 (CVV2), and Verified by Visa.

Secure Electronic Transaction (SET) Protocol
• Jointly designed by MasterCard and Visa with backing of Microsoft, Netscape, IBM, GTE, SAIC, and others
• Designed to provide security for card payments as they travel on the Internet– Contrasted with Secure Socket Layers (SSL) protocol, SET validates
consumers and merchants in addition to providing secure transmission
• SET specification
– Uses public key cryptography and digital certificates for validating both consumers and merchants
– Provides privacy, data integrity, user and merchant authentication, and consumer nonrepudiation

The SET protocol coordinates the activities of the customer, merchant, merchant’s bank, and card issuer. [Source: Stein]

SET uses a hierarchy of trust
All parties hold certificates signed directly or indirectly by a certifying authority.

SET Protocol
• Extremely secure– Fraud reduced since all parties are authenticated
– Requires all parties to have certificates
• So far has received lukewarm reception
• 80 percent of SET activities are in Europe and Asian countries
• Problems with SET– Not easy to implement
– Not as inexpensive as expected
– Expensive to integrated with legacy applications
– Not tried and tested, and often not needed
– Scalability is still in question

Main factors when selecting e-payment method
• Availability (bank system, laws and regulations)
• The consideration of size and type of business, type of a target group of consumers, types of products and services.
• The ability to provide security against fraudulent activity
• Being cost effective for low value transaction fees
• Being protective of the privacy of the users
• Easy to use, and being convenient for purchasing on the web based e-business

Concerns of e-payment mechanism• Security.
Feel secured from being hijacked by unauthorized party or processes. The need to fill out credit card numbers and other personal information on the Internet creates unsecured feeling further than the current transaction.
• Acceptability. A wide range of parties needs to accept payment.
• Convenience. To make small purchase, the action required during a transaction should minimal.
• Cost
