1. What is Secure Online Payment Service?

You can recognise 3D Secure merchants by the Verified by Visa or Mastercard SecureCode or UnionPay 3DS logos on the online merchant’s website.

All Baiduri-issued Visa, Mastercard and UnionPay Credit and Debit Cards will have this security protocol.3. How does this make online purchasing secure?
Normally when making online purchases, you are only required to input the card information found on your payment card. With 3D Secure, you would have an added security step where an OTP is sent to your registered mobile number or email address. This added step in the payment process helps confirm that you are the genuine cardholder.
4. Do I need to enrol for 3D Secure?
No enrolment is required as all cardholders are automatically enrolled. Please ensure that you have updated your latest mobile number or email with us as the OTP will be sent to the mobile number or email address in our system.
5. What are the benefits of 3D Secure and why do I need a One-Time Password (OTP)?
3D Secure provides an added layer of security by prompting you for an OTP when you make an online purchase. This helps to protect against online fraud by verifying that the customer making the online purchase is the rightful owner of the card.

10. If I do not have a mobile number or email registered with the Bank, can I still make online purchases?
