One-shot payment
Merchants can create ans host their own payment page. They will use the paynow.aspx endpoint in order to send the data.
This approach is very similar to BNP hosted payment forms and leaves the merchant in full control of the checkout experience as all website elements are delivered from the merchant’s server.
Merchants processing card transactions using the Silent Post model must submit the PCI DSS Self-Assessment Questionnaire (SAQ) A-EP. This SAQ is more comprehensive and thus might require more time and resources in comparison to SAQ A applicable to merchants that use hosted payment pages. However, merchants should always consult with their acquirer to evaluate the level of compliance required and refer to the PCI DSS guidelines. This does not affect the use of pseudo card numbers which is possible without submitting the SAQ questionaire.
One-click payment
Merchants can create a form for One-click payment, using the PCNr (Pseudo Card Number / Token) in the card JSON Object and paynow.aspx.
In that case, the merchant is exempt from submitting the PCI DSS Self-Assessment Questionnaire (SAQ) A-EP.
