1. Maintenance principles
• The SEPA Cards Standardisation Volume ("Volume") is owned by the EPC
• The maintenance of the Volume has been delegated to the Cards Stakeholders Group
• The Volume is composed of a set of Books
• The full set of Books is reviewed in a new version of the Volume every 3 years
• The public consultation for a new version of the SCS Volume (full set of Books) is
organised over 3 months
• Individual Books can be reviewed in the meantime, either for legal alignment, or for
urgency
• The public consultation for a new version of an individual Book is organised over 1
month
• No consultation is organised for alignment either with regulatory texts or with new
worldwide standards

2. Conformance with SCS Volume
Principles
• Each stakeholder in the Card and Terminal domain remains free to decide whether it will become
conformant with the Volume
• It is assumed that the Members and the Associate Members of the CSG who contributed in
defining the Volume requirements will implement the ones that are relevant for their type of
activity
• The ERPB is inviting the CSG to monitor the conformance of the Market with the Volume
• Any stakeholder who decided to implement the Volume requirements cannot claim for "Volume
conformance" without having implemented all the requirements relevant for its activity
• The assessment of the way a stakeholder implements the Volume requirements is a selfassessment process
• Self-assessments when provided to the CSG Secretariat should be published on the CSG public
website
• As a general principle, the requirements published in the Volume become mandatory for
stakeholders wishing to become Volume conformant, three years after CSG releasing a
publication. For some requirements, different deadlines can be set

Clarification on contactless payments
• No new requirements for Face-to-Face payments as defined in Volume v7.0 were
added, but …
• In order to adopt a terminology consistent with Remote Payments, Face-To-Face
transactions have been segregated into 3 types of transactions in Book 2 (Functional
requirements) of Volume v7.05 :
• With contact
• Chip and Mobile contactless (6 requirements out of which 4 refer to EMV)
• Additionally a new illustrative context has been created in Book 6 (Implementation
guidelines) on "Contactless Payment with no Cardholder Verification Method required
in an attended and unattended environment, cardholder is present and final amount is
know"

5. SCS Volume v7.05 - Consultation
• The version of the Volume which is preparatory to Volume v.7.1 and will be published
for consultation is called version 7.05
• The public consultation of Volume v7.05 lasts from 10 March 2015 till 5 June 2015.
• Volume v7.05 includes the requirements for Remote Payments, the Pre-Authorisation
requirements and new contexts; but this version is not yet aligned with legislative/
regulatory texts expected to be officially adopted in 2015
• Comments are expected to focus on the newly introduced aspects; comments on
» Volume v7.05 aspects (Remote requirements, Pre-Authorisation and new
contexts) will be analysed in the scope of the preparation of Volume v7.1
» Volume v7.0 aspects (Face-To-Face requirements) will be analysed in the scope
of the preparation of Volume v8.0

expected to be published in Q1 2017
• Volume is expected to incorporate new aspects linked to technology innovation and to
the monitoring of the Volume compliance by the Market
