There are several features Beeunique use to guard against card fraud and to make shopping safer for all customers. These Include the following:

AVS - Address Verification Service
The card holders billing address is checked with the card issuer. A successful AVS result shows that the person ordering knows the cardholders address and is less likely to be using a stolen card.

CV2 / CVV - Card Verification Value
This allow us to check the 3 digit security code found on the signature strip on the reverse of the card. A Successful CVV result indicates that the person ordering is in possession of the card at the time of the transaction. No transaction will be accepted on Beeunique without a positive CVV match.

Verified by Visa & Mastercard Securecode (also known as 3D Secure)
Verified by Visa (VbV) and MasterCard SecureCode (MSC) which use 3D Secure technology are the latest fraud prevention initiatives launched by the card schemes as a more secure method for authenticating the cardholder at the time of the transaction. 3D Secure is becoming an Industry Standard. In a 3D secure transaction you would register for VbV or MSC with your issuing bank. If you do not register before ordering online, the first time you order from a merchant who supports VbV or MSC you will be asked to register your card before continuing with the transaction. At the checkout stage, you would select to pay by Visa, Visa Delta, and Visa Debit or by MasterCard or Maestro and a pop-up box will appear from their issuing bank to request that they enter their PIN number. The bank will verify the PIN number and the transaction will continue as normal. This is all completed on a Secure Server and at no time will Beeunique see this information.

 

Verified Payment Data Query (VPDQ)
VPDQ provides us with fraud indicators to show high risk, medium risk and low risk transactions. Detailed reports will show why a transaction has been given a particular rating so that we can decide whether or not we wish to accept the payment and proceed with the sale. Each transaction is screened by The 3rd Man and the results are displayed alongside the AVS, CV2 and Verified by Visa and MasterCard SecureCode results.

These results are only available to Beeunique's Accounts Department Employees and would never be passed onto any third party. For customer security Beeunique cannot see your card number during payment and do not hold any card details on file.
