Three-Domain Secure (3-D Secure)
3-D Secure technology is a unique security system used for making payments for goods/services in online shops. It is a part of global Verified by Visa (VbV)/MasterCard Secure Code program. VbV Secure Code enables you to make payments in real time, providing additional security for your transactions.
VbV Secure Code reduces risk of fraud almost to zero through authentication of cardholders, which is performed on a special server of issuing bank. Authentication of buyers is performed with a special code known only to cardholder. Thus number of card alone is not enough to make payment. Additional security of transmission of data over the Internet is ensured by SSL encryption protocol.
