This can reduce the time it takes to make an online purchase by up to 4 minutes.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>ActiveCheckout is the first SPA-enabled applet that is freely distributable to cardholders. It is simple for cardholders to participate as it automatically installs into a cardholder\u2019s browser as a browser plug-in.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>MasterCard developed SPA as a solution to the problem of online credit card fraud for banks, merchants and cardholders.
