The introduction of 3D Secure for all card transactions
This week we have seen potentially fraudulent credit card transactions/topups being made on our site.
We take security very seriously, with regularly monitoring for signs of suspicious activity and taking immediate action when necessary.
From today only 3-D Secure enrolled cards will be accepted via our site.
What is 3D Secure?
3D Secure stands for Three Domain Secure - the payment industry's internet authentication standard which has been developed by the major card schemes. Visa has called their version of the scheme 'Verified by Visa' and MasterCard have called their equivalent initiative 'MasterCard SecureCode'. These are both collectively referred to as 3D Secure. 3D Secure authentication requires the cardholder to register their card to take advantage of this service. This is a one time process involves the cardholder answering several security questions to which only the card issuer and cardholder will know the answer. The cardholder selects a password and agrees on a secret phrase, which will be used by the card issuer during each online transaction.
3D Secure can be thought of as an online version of 'Chip and Pin' technology, whereby the cardholder has a personalised password registered with their card that is entered during the checkout process.
If your card is not 3D Secure enrolled there are other payment options - Cheque, PayPal or Bank transfer.
