What is 3D Secure and how to pay online with the Visa payment card?
Card numbers explained 💳
If you are new to online shopping by card – all the numbers on the card may seem confusing. Card number, CVV, expiration date, and your name – this is the information that you will be asked to enter when paying by card in a traditional e-shop. Let’s see where to find them.
1 – Your name and surname
2 – Card number (16 digits)
3 – Expiration date (month/year)
4 – CVV code (3 digits)
❗️ Do not forget – the CVV code is not the same as your card PIN. Your card’s PIN will be asked for only when paying in physical stores or withdrawing cash from an ATM. Forgot your PIN? Watch a video on how to retrieve it >
