A collaboration has been formed between pan-European IT services provider Integris and Arcot, an e-business solutions provider.

Under the terms of the agreement, both companies will jointly offer implementation of the Visa Authenticated Payment Programme to card issuers. The new offering will be based on Arcot TransFort, which currently supports over 20 banks and 40 merchants in seven different languages. Integris will provide a number of solutions including an initial advisory service and a fast-track implementation.

The Visa Authenticated Payment Programme is aimed at providing an increased level of security to online transactions by confirming to the e-merchant that the buyer is the correct cardholder.
