About the Verification Code
How does the Verification Code protect me? The Verification Code is not encoded into the magnetic strip on your
card, so the it is not picked up by card readers. The Verification Code
is not part of your credit card account number, so it does not show
up on any sales receipt or billing statement. Therefore, you must have
the card in your possession to see and use the code. Since we validate
the code with your bank, only you can use your card at our site
