How do I get 3D Secure?
For extra fraud protection, 3D Secure (3DS) requires customers to complete an additional verification step with the card issuer when paying. Typically, you direct the customer to an authentication page on their bank's website, and they enter a password associated with the card or a code sent to their phone.
How do I know if my card has 3D Secure?
Chances are that your bank automatically enrolled your card in 3D Secure when it was issued. If you've never made an online purchase with your card and you're unsure if your card is registered, it's best to contact your bank directly to check.
What is 3D Secure authentication?
3D Secure is an additional layer of card holder authentication on online card transactions. If a card holder is making a payment online and the bank detects that the transaction might be suspicious, the bank card issuer redirects them to a 3DS page for extra verification.
