Script Authorization on Payment Pages: Understanding PCI 4.0 Section 6.4.3 and How We’re Providing The Tools To Keep Your Payment Pages Secure
As of March 2025, PCI 4.0 DSS will require that all scripts on payment pages have a method to verify them as authorized before execution. To comply with this requirement, BigCommerce is implementing the ability to enforce a nonce in the Content Security Policy (CSP) header, ensuring that only authorized scripts are permitted to load and execute on payment pages.

Apps made easy: Build your next full-stack BigCommerce app with Gadget
Any developer is likely too familiar with the grind of setting up infrastructure, writing boilerplate code, and managing the tedious aspects of app development. What you should be spending your time on is the exciting, unique, and innovative features that solve actual user problems. Until now, building apps on the BigCommerce platform also had these challenges, preventing you from focusing on making app experiences truly great. To solve that slow, tedious development experience, we are excited to announce a new partnership with Gadget. Gadget is a full-stack development platform that lets you focus on what really matters: writing the code that makes your app stand out from the rest. Starting today, any developers building apps for the BigCommerce platform can build with Gadget using the new BigCommerce integration.
