what is a mastercard secure code
Answer:
MasterCard SecureCode is a new service from MasterCard and your card issuer (bank) that is meant to provide additional protection when you buy online. The idea is that you choose your own personal MasterCard Secure Code and it is never shared with any merchant. A private code means extra protection against identity theft when you shop online. It is a simple and secure way to pay online stores. To choose your own secure code, turn to the official site of MasterCard and follow the simple steps outlined by your financial institution. After that every time you pay online with your MasterCard or Maestro card, a box pops up from your card issuer asking you for your personal SecureCode. It is very similar to entering a PIN at the ATM. In seconds, your card issuer confirms it's you and allows your purchase to be completed.
