Contact Stripe support and ask them to let your MCC code to reflect 7011. *'''Missing CVC''': Booking.com and Expedia do not always send a CVC for virtual cards. Ask the channel to povide a CVC for the virtual card and manually reenter it. For Expedia virtual cards you can try to add the generic CVC codes:**Visa/Mastercard: 469**American Express: 2469 *'''Incorrect amount''': Double-check you charge the exact amount sent by the channel from the booking. ===Strong Customer Authentication (SCA) === If you enable 'Strong Customer Authentication' in Beds24 in SETTINGS->PAYMENTS->PAYMENT COLLECTION->STRIPE it enables 3DS2 authentication for Stripe booking page payments and payment requests sent to guests. The 3DS2 authentication is handled by Stripe and we believe that once completed it will help shift fraud liability from the merchant to the card holders bank.
