Writer — Certyneo · About Certyneo
Securing transactions has become a strategic priority for every e-commerce site. According to the Bank of France, the fraud rate on online payments reached 0.193% in 2023, about 10 times higher than in-store payments. Facing this risk, merchants must rely on a strict ecosystem of technical standards and regulatory certifications. Understanding these frameworks is not optional: it is a legal, commercial, and insurance obligation that determines consumer trust and business sustainability.
