Inside this study
As merchants in the EU and UK continue to transform their payment flows to comply with the PSD2, customer experience issues, high fraud rates, and a lack of data transparency within the payments ecosystem still present challenges.
In a study commissioned by Riskified, Forrester Consulting surveyed 207 decision-makers from eCommerce organizations across the EU and the UK to assess the impact of PSD2 on their businesses, examine whether it lives up to their expectations, and how, if properly managed, it can help enable smooth and secure payments.
