This system supports 3-D Secure for certain cardholders in order to provide a more secure online payment experience.[What is 3-D Secure?]This system adds an authentication step to the online payment process by requiring the user to enter a previously registered password on an authentication screen provided by the credit card issuer. International credit card brands VISA, MasterCard®, and JCB recommend that merchants make use of this system.Credit card issuers use different names to refer to their implementation of 3-D Secure, including Verified by VISA (used by VISA), MasterCard® Secure Code™ (MasterCard®), and J/Secure™ (JCB).
*Some issuers allow cardholders to use the same password they have been assigned for accessing their monthly statements online or having them sent by email. If this password is not entered, or if an incorrect password is entered, the online transaction will not be completed.
