Collecting a credit card number without SCA will no longer be a reliable means of security as the card holders bank will likely reject the transaction. Many OTAs including Booking.com and Expedia can collect guest payments at the time of booking (channel collect) with SCA. The OTA will then distribute the funds to you by bank transfer or virtual credit card so you avoid the need to deal with SCA and declined transactions. Beds24 can automatically process the virtual cards on the day the funds become available at Stripe and deposit them directly to your account. If you require security or prepayment but do not want the OTA to collect payment, you can accept bookings without card or deposit from the OTA and send a payment request to the guest from Beds24 manually or using auto actions.

You can collect a credit card payment with the booking using SCA. If you require additional payments from EU guests you will need to send a payment request so the guest can complete the SCA againpayment.
= Payment Gateways =
Paypal and Realex will are taking care of the required functionality from their end.
