Pay including a Tax Identifier for individuals and Business

Pay including a Tax Identifier for individuals and Business

Definition

Seller

This capability allows the Seller to:

  1. Communicate the Tax Identity Info for an Individual while paying for a new or existing unpaid Order or Order Items using customer or agent card or any valid form of payment 

  2. Communicate the Tax Identity Info for a Payer while paying for a new or existing unpaid Order or Order Items using customer or agent card or any valid form of payment

Tax Identity Info includes the Issuing Country Code, the document identification, and a code to identify if it belongs to an individual or business (Payer)

Airline

This capability allows an Airline to receive the Tax Identity Info for either the individual or the payer when receiving the payment for processing for a new or existing unpaid Order or OrderItems 

Preconditions

  • Seller may have provided the context of interaction between the customer and the Seller, which may drive decisions relating to payment options such as authentication

  • Seller has already performed the necessary 3DSv2.x authentication if required by the airline prior sending payment card details to the airline

  • Seller and airlines implemented all the necessary processes to handle card data

  • Individual or Payer has a Tax ID that needs to be included at time of payment

Context of interaction

The Seller has the Tax ID provided for either the individual or the business that needs to be included at time of payment. The combination of issuing country code and placement of the TaxIdentityInfo in either the PaxType or PayerType will allow all parties the ability to deduce which code belongs on the receipts and in accounting.

For example, if the IssuingCountryCode is BO for Bolivia and the TaxIdentityInfo is in the PayerType, the code NIT would be on any downstream documents/notifications while if it is in the PaxType, the code CI would be on any downstream documents/notifications.

 

Authentication

Until a new version is released, 3DSv2.x is the only accepted version to perform authentication.

Process

  1. A payer (customer or Seller) attempts to pay for the unpaid item(s) by providing payment card details (customer or Agent) and the Tax Identity Info of either the Payer or Individual.

  2. An authentication is triggered by the Seller.

  3. Once the authentication process is completed, the Seller collects the authentication results.

  4. The Seller sends card details and authentication results to the payee.

  5. The payee (Airline) requests a payment authorization using the card details and authentication results received from the Seller.

  6. The Tax ID is applied to any downstream documents as needed.

Post Condition

Success

  • Seller receives a view of the confirmed OrderItems with payment confirmation as “SUCCESSFUL“.

Failure

  • The Order details are returned with a warning or error message indicating the failed payment with reason for failure.

  • An error message is returned by the airline if the seller includes the TaxIdentityInfo in both the PaxType and PayerType.
