What is a Card Verification Value (CVV)?

The Card Verification Value (CVV) is a 3-digit number found on the signature panel on the back of your credit card. It is an additional safeguard that helps us validate your purchase and protect against fraud. It is not contained in the magnetic stripe information and is therefore not printed on sales receipts.

Where is the CVV located?

Visa CardMaster Card, Visa, Switch and JCB

The 3-digit CVV is printed on the signature panel on the back of the card immediately after the card number or partial card number. For simplicity, the CVV is always the last 3 digits shown on the signature panel.
