European guidelines are changing to make online card payments even safer. For orders placed after January 1st, 2021, you will be asked to verify yourself through 3D Secure. This will be marked depending on the type of card you use (e.g. Visa Secure, Mastercard Identity Check or American Express SafeKey).
What should I do?
If you have not already done so, you should activate your card for 3D Secure. Most banks offer this service online. You can find this out on your bank's website.
If you have already registered for 3D Secure or used the function before, you do not have to register again. However, your bank could set up a new payment process to improve usage. Some banks have designed a new smartphone app specifically for this purpose. Please contact your bank for more information.
To ensure that you can easily and securely pay for your next order, we recommend that you activate 3D Secure before your next online order.
