3D Secure is a new method of security mandated by the Visa and Mastercard Associations and managed by South African banks to enhance
security of online transactions.
3D Secure provides an extra layer of security by requiring that the cardholder submits a second level of authentication when shopping online.
Mastercard’s product is called “SecureCode” and Visa’s product is called “Verified by Visa”.
