Print API to get the score in backend without redirecting the user to the Magne. Safe website in order to continue the transaction. 9/18/2020 Enhancement of Mini. Check ID 12

Magne. Print Technology n One of the major and important scanners provided n Detects counterfeit credit cards by reading a unique magnetic "fingerprint" on the stripes of credit cards and other objects that carry magnetic information. n Has millions of magnetic particles that are organized in a unique way. n Analyzes these particles and determines the card's "signature" number, which then can be put in a database. n When a card is swiped through a designated terminal, the card's signature, or "Magneprint, " can be compared to the recorded signature. 9/18/2020 Enhancement of Mini.
