# Simple Pay

With Simple Pay we will help you to initiate payments via PSD2 interfaces more simple and less complicated and to enable end-users to successfully execute a transaction with the help of only one SCA.

Possible use cases:

* PFM providers&#x20;
* eCommerce with low fraud risk

**What's important to know about Simple Pay?**

Simple Payment can only be used via PSD2 interfaces. In contrast to previous pay transactions, a special feature of Simple Payment is that no Account Information Service (AIS) is executed and required; only the payment in the form of the PIS is executed.&#x20;

*The improved user experience is the main goal.*

**What does a transaction without AIS mean?**

* One SCA required to initiate a transactio&#x6E;*.*&#x20;
* No account view for a Simple Payment transaction.&#x20;
* No security settings check (e.g. no account balance check)
* IBAN has to be provided

Simple Payment is only available for selected PSD2 interfaces in **DE** and **AT** (under the condition that the PSD2 transport routes are market-ready).
