VISA
has addressed concerns of consumers citing safety and protection
as the number one reason why they do not make purchases online.
VISA created a new service called “Verified by VISA”.
Verified
by VISA allows consumers to add a personal password to their
existing VISA card to ensure that only they can use their
card online. When members use the security service to make
purchases
at participating merchants, they key in the password to validate
their identity. By using this service a member can help prevent
unauthorized purchases before they even happen.
To
sign up for this valuable service, go to www.visa.com/verified enter
your credit card or debit card number and follow the instructions
for verifying your identity. Once you pass the authentication
process,
you will be able to establish a password and hints to help remember
the password.
Once you complete the online registration process Verified by
Visa is available immediately. You will be able to shop at participating
merchants with confidence that your credit card account is being
protected for online transactions!
Remember
your Credit Union is doing what it can to protect its members
from unauthorized transactions now please do your part
and enroll in Verified by VISA!
