[wiki] Why is SRC Profile out of scope? #5

Open adrianhopebailie opened 5 years ago

adrianhopebailie commented 5 years ago

From Assumptions and Scope:

"To access an SRC Profile for a customer, an SRC payment handlers will need to manage customer identity information. How a payment handler does so is out of scope for this SRC Payment Method definition."

Given that many merchants sites and the browser will know the identity of the user and be able to provide this to the payment handler it seems short-sighted to make this out of scope.

At a minimum the merchant could provide user hints that avoids the user needing to pick from multiple profiles.

Makes sense; I have added a pointer to this issue from the wiki.
