What is true about using 3DS with Radar?

• A. Radar can automatically trigger 3DS authentication via a rule
• B. 3DS is never used with Radar
• C. 3DS is required for all cards in every case
• D. Radar replaces 3DS entirely

Answer: (A)

Radar can automatically trigger 3D Secure authentication based on rules you define. This means you can set up risk-based conditions (like high risk score, unusual velocity, or specific countries) that prompt Stripe to require 3DS for those transactions, while letting low-risk payments proceed without additional authentication. In other words, 3DS isn’t forced on every payment, and Radar doesn’t replace 3DS entirely; it manages when to apply it to balance security with a smooth checkout experience. So the best approach is to use Radar rules to selectively require 3DS for transactions that warrant stronger verification.
