What is the “3-D Secure Program”?
  • 發布單位:Office of Financial Affairs

When you enter your credit card details online, 3-D Secure Program protects your personal information and card details from falling into the wrong hands. It’s a security feature that credit card companies are using to create another layer of security by adding an additional password. As such, your credit card details are processed using a more secure connection. The service is already used by Visa (Verified by Visa, or VBV), Mastercard (Secure Code) and JCB (J/secureTM). If you activate the password and shop on sites that participate in the 3-D Secure Program, the check-out process will require the 3-D password you set up in order to authorize your payment, therefore adding protection against any unauthorized use of your card.
