Web Payment Security Interest Group
The payments ecosystem is complex and
undergoing significant change due to
technology advances, the rise of mobile
computing, regulatory changes, faster
payments initiatives, and more. The
complexity and rapid changes increase the
challenge of securing end-to-end payments
and ensuring privacy protection.
The mission of the Web Payment Security
Interest Group is to enhance the security
and interoperability of Web payments. The
group pursues its mission by creating a
forum for organizations to define areas of
collaboration and identify gaps between
existing technical specifications in order
to increase compatibility among different
technologies.
See the charter for more information about the scope, activities, and potential deliverables of this Interest Group.

Participation
The Interest Group is a discussion forum
for the Members of Partner Consortia. The
initial Partner Consortia
are W3C, EMVCo,
and
the FIDO
Alliance.
Each Partner Consortium determines the eligibility requirements of its Membership. In particular:
- From W3C: W3C staff and W3C Member representatives.
- From EMVCo: EMVCo staff and employees of any EMVCo Member. This does not include Associates and Subscribers. However, EMVCo staff may also invite an Associate or Subscriber to participate, in which case that organization's employees become eligible to participate in this Interest Group on behalf of that organization.
- From FIDO: FIDO staff and employees of any FIDO Member.
All participants must follow the W3C Code of Ethics and
Professional Conduct and W3C's Antitrust
