The most advanced 3D Secure technology offering the maximum security of online card transactions adds another step of authenticating the holder of a Piraeus Bank card before processing online transactions.
3D Secure is automatically activated / deactivated on the next business day after activation/deactivation of sms notification service.
Advantages of 3D Secure:
How 3D Secure works?
* If your card is not connected to 3D Secure, but the website on which you are paying supports 3D Secure technology (today it is the most of Internet sites), then for each payment transaction, you will need to call to the Bank’s Contact Center and receive password from the operator after passing the identification.
** If your card is connected to 3D Secure but the website you use does not support the 3D Secure technology, your transaction will be processed according to standard procedure (without entering a one-time password).
To check whether your connection is secure, look at the website’s URL address: the address of a secure website begins with “https://”, and of an insecure website with “http://”.
Piraeus Bank cares about your security, and recommends making online purchases only on credible websites with secure connection.
