Issuers must accept and properly process (i.e., perform an individual<br />

risk assessment on each Transaction) any Transaction verified using a<br />

signature-based CVM in the same manner as it would if the Transaction had<br />

been verified using a PIN-based CVM.<br />

Issuers will be indemnified for actual fraud losses suffered from Transactions<br />

verified by signature via the Issuer Assurance Plan, providing all requirements<br />

are met. Refer to Chapter 13, “Liabilities and Indemnification,” for further<br />

information.<br />

6.5 Transmitting, Processing, and Authorizing Transactions<br />

In order to authorize Transactions, an Issuer must maintain a direct functional<br />

24-hour-per-day operating connection to the Interchange System or must ensure<br />

that any TPP(s) operating on its behalf maintains such a connection.<br />

6.6 Fees to Cardholders<br />

The Corporation does not determine whether any fee is charged to any<br />

Cardholders, or the amount of any such fee so charged. Issuers independently<br />

determine what fees, if any, to charge their Cardholders.<br />

6.7 Stand-In Processing Service<br />

An Issuer, at its option, may elect to support the Stand-In Processing Service for<br />

all POS and ATM Transactions.<br />
