What is a Card Verification Value?

The Card Verification Value (CVV) is a 3- or 4-digit number on your credit card. It is an additional safeguard that helps us validate your purchase and protect against fraud. This information is not stored in the magnetic strip of your card and is therefore not printed on sales receipts.

Where is the CVV located?

VISA, MASTERCARD & DISCOVER
You can find your card verification code on the reverse side of your credit card, printed into the signature field. It is a 3-digit number for Visa, MasterCard, and Discover.

AMERICAN EXPRESS
The American Express Card verification code is a 4-digit number printed on the front of your card. It appears to the right of and slightly higher than your card number.
