Hi Stan, Honestly - good luck with this. We came to the conclusion that you essentially need to permit every bank in the world as they all have different authentication methods, all hosted on their own�infrastructure. That is how Verified by Visa and Master Card Secure Code are able to�guarantee the level of security. We used to log people in for a few minutes to complete this transaction but it's really quite�cumbersome�and generated more problems that what it was worth. As Nathan mentions referrer URL could be useful, you could use this to generate a white-list over time but that is likely still more trouble that what it is worth. In the end we managed to convince our provider that the low transaction value was worth the risk, signed a waver and opted out of the scheme.
Why not allow based on referrer for some limited period of time? I assume that the referrer is going to be your hotspot's URL or something.
Or maybe allow based on referrer forever and do some monitoring to check and see if people are abusing it.
No need to get a perfect solution on day 1, you're better off allowing all customers than blocking potential freeloaders.
