I get error: 0 - Invalid API Key provided

This error means that one of the keys used in your plugin settings is invalid. Make sure that Publishable Key and Secret Key are valid.

There is no 3D Secure function to appear when a user makes payment.

3D Secure is a security layer supported by default, there is no longer a option allowing to enable/disable this important part of the payment making it secure (this option was in the earlier versions, but now it is obsolete). The appearance of 3D Secure depends on the bank-issuer of the card. If the bank supports 3D Secure layer, then the user will confirm the payment.
