If you own or work in an eCommerce business in the EU, today’s episode is a must-listen. I speak with Mastercard's Executive Vice President of Services in Europe, Milan Gauder, about SCA - Strong customer authentication (SCA) for electronic payments which will be coming into effect in September 2019.
