AuthenticateCard Method

Determines only if a card has been lost or stolen.

Syntax

[VB.NET]
Public Sub AuthenticateCard()

[C#]
public void AuthenticateCard();

Remarks

This method does not send an authorization, but instead it sends an authentication request. If successful the Code will be "85". If the card is stolen or otherwise not normal, the Code and Text will indicate such. You may send AVS (CustomerAddress and CustomerZip) as well as CVVData, and the AVSResult and CVVResult will be returned as normal.

NOTE: This method has a corresponding asynchronous version (AuthenticateCardAsync) for use in the Xamarin environment.
