Payment testing notes for Greece
- Currency: EUR (euro). Most gateway APIs expect amounts in the smallest unit, for example 1050 for 10.50.
- Card authentication: PSD2 strong customer authentication (Delegated Regulation (EU) 2018/389, in effect since 14 September 2019) applies to customer-initiated online card payments in the EEA; cards meet it through 3-D Secure, with exemptions for some low-risk and merchant-initiated payments. Source
- Card country: Fraud rules often compare the BIN country (GR) with the shopper's IP address and billing address. Use a BIN from Greece for the domestic path and a foreign BIN for cross-border rules.
- Debit vs credit: Debit makes up 45% of the ranges here; only 29 of the other 62 countries we cover have a higher debit share. Debit and credit often follow different rules for refunds, installments and recurring billing, so cover both types.
- Billing details: postcodes in Greece are 5 digits written as 3 + space + 2 (NNN NN) (e.g. 105 57); phone numbers use +30 — 10-digit numbers; mobile numbers start with 69 (69x xxx xxxx).
