Q2. What is 3D Secure?

A. 3-D Secure was developed by Visa and Mastercard to improve the security of Internet payments. A transaction using Verified by Visa/SecureCode will initiate a redirect to the website of the card issuing bank to authorize the transaction. You will then be required to enter your online password for the transaction to go though. If you haven't registered with verified by Visa/SecureCode your card issuing bank will ask you to register when you are redirected. Once registered you will not have to go through this process again and you will use the same password every time you purchase on a website with 3D secure.
