3D Secure™
Protection made simple
3D SecureTM is like Chip & PIN for your online purchases–designed to protect you by asking a secret password and a personal message. Developed by VisaTM and MasterCard® and used by most retailers, it has rapidly become a widely accepted standard.
Quick and easy registration
Registering involves a quick, one–time process. Simply log on to Verified by VisaTM or MasterCard® SecureCodeTM, register your secret password, create your personal message
and you're done. The next time you shop online using your MBNA credit card, you'll be automatically prompted for your secret password during checkout. A secure screen will also appear with your personal message so you know it is MBNA who are asking for your password.
Please note you may also be prompted to register whilst shopping at a participating online retailer site. Again, a secure screen will appear during checkout and you'll be asked to follow the same simple and safe registration steps.
Not all online retailers participate in 3D Secure at the moment, but this is changing all the time. Look for the Verified
by VisaTM or MasterCard® SecureCodeTM logos at all participating online retailers.
We strongly recommend that you register today.
