Does 3-D Secure Visa prevent fraud?

Written by Chris Alarie | Jan 27, 2022 6:31:51 PM

Yes. Visa’s 3-D Secure is a fraud prevention security protocol for online credit card payments. It facilitates the exchange of customer information between acquirer and issuer whenever a customer makes an online purchase. This allows merchants to confirm the identity of a customer, cutting down on identity fraud and reducing the frequency of “unauthorized transaction” chargebacks.
