To help protect you from credit theft and
fraudulent use of your cards the major
distributors have included security codes
printed on each card.
Visa, MasterCard, and Discover all use a three
digit code printed on the back of the card,
while Amex uses a four digit version printed on
the front as follows:
Visa Card Verification Value (CVV2) Three digits
to the right of the credit card number in the
signature area on back of the card.
MasterCard Card Verification Code (CVC2) Three
digits to the right of the credit card number in
the signature area on back of the card.
Discover Card Identification Number (CID) Three
digits to the right of the credit card number in
the signature area on back of the card.
American Express Card Identification Number (CID) Four
digits printed (not embossed) on the right front of the card
above the credit card number. |
