Transaction Status Reason Codes
VCAS has introduced Transaction Status Reason codes to assist issuers in processing failed authentication transactions. Transaction Status Reason codes are defined in the EMVCo specification and are used to signify why a transaction was not authenticated. Issuers can now set a status reason in rules when the result is an outcome of “Fail”, “Fail with Feedback” or “Rejected”.
