Purpose and Deployment Models

The NDM Simulator is a testing tool used to simulate EMV® 3-D Secure (3DS) authentication flows and support integration with the 3DS Server. It provides predefined test scenarios and configurable options that allow merchants and integrators to validate their implementations, test different authentication outcomes, and troubleshoot integration issues.

NDM Simulator deployment models

On-Prem NDM Simulator

The On-Prem version is available for customers using the On-Prem deployment of the Netcetera 3DS Server and 3DS SDK. It can be installed within the customer's infrastructure and used for internal integration and testing.

SaaS Preview Environment

The SaaS Preview Environment is a hosted version of the NDM Simulator provided by Netcetera. It allows customers to access the simulator without installation and test supported authentication flows and scenarios in a ready-to-use environment.
