Definition
ICS stands for Implementation Conformance Statement. It corresponds to a series of card processing features that may be optional or mandatory depending on different factors including regulatory ones. In practice, these features correspond to business requirements that shall be certified at the “L2” and made available to “L3”.
Process
Certification processes are key in payment industry. Payment schemes’ approval services are at the core of these processes in order to guaranty the interoperability of the systems between the issuance (card side) and the acceptance (payment terminal side).
Agnoid is delivered with the ‘’L2’’ certification grade. Hence, integrators don’t need to go through another “L2” certification process at a lab. Agnoid is meant to be used as is, to be integrated into a payment application, and to be submit to CDET (Visa) certification process.
Be careful! Regions (such as Asia, Europe, US) may be ruled by a specific Visa organization that might – or not – impose regional “L3” rules. So, it is important to take into considerations local regulatory context before developing a payment application for a given market. Contact your acquirer for a better visibility.

For all the ICS references below, and Agnos' options:
Optionalmeans that the option may be set to Yes or No for a given ICS
Condtional Conditionalmeans that the option shall be set to Yes if the condition is met
Variablemeans that the option is discrete
Mandatoryalong with Yes/Fixed means that Agnos cannot be set differently
Mandatoryalong with Noor a discrete value means that Agnos doesn't support the option yet. Contact us for more details
...
For all the ICS references below, and Agnos options comments:
L3 perspectivemeans that current Agnos implementation doesn't prevent the addition of the option after L2 certification (i.e. option is out of card processing/L2 scope)
