The rule in plain words
Payment transactions cannot be negative.
EBA checks it for 22 rows, from card payments acquired (except cards with an e-money function only) (0010) to other (0600). And on six sheets: domestic amount of payment, domestic number of transactions, cross-border within the EEA amount of payments, cross-border within the EEA number of transactions, cross-border outside the EEA amount of payments and cross-border outside the EEA number of transactions. That makes 132 checks. A failure names the one that failed.
How the Line4 Check report words itShowHide
The first of its checks, word for word as the report shows it when it fails. The others read the same, with their own column, row or sheet.
Payment transactions: Of which authenticated via non-strong customer authentication, Domestic number of transactions >= 0
What to do if your filing fails it
- 01Open the template below and find the cells the rule reads.
- 02Look for a value with the wrong sign in these cells, such as an amount entered as a negative number.
- 03EBA compares the values exactly here: there is no rounding tolerance.
- 04It runs only when your filing indicators mark Y 04.01 as reported.
- 05This is a warning. It does not stop the filing on its own, but your authority may ask you to explain it.

A worked example
The first of its checks, with simple numbers.
Card payments acquired non-remotely without strong customer authentication, payment transactions must then be at least 0.
A file that reports 0 passes. One that reports -100 fails, by 100.
The numbers are illustrative.
