Verified By VISA

In addition to our other ways of preventing, detecting, and resolving fraud, we offer Verified by Visa®, a free, simple-to-use service that confirms your identity with an extra password when you make an online transaction. Wherever you see the Verified by Visa® symbol, you know you can shop with an added layer of security. Your password will be required to complete the purchase. You can enroll your card in the Verified by Visa® program now or while shopping online. 

Protect Your Debit Card

  • Make sure to sign the signature panel on the reverse of your card as soon as you receive it.
  • Try and memorize the PIN instead of noting it down somewhere.
  • Never disclose the card number unnecessarily
  • Don't lend your card to anyone. Be well aware of who has access to your cards.
  • If your debit card is borrowed by a family member (spouse, child, parent), with or without your knowledge, you are responsible for their purchase or cash withdrawals.
  • Never leave your card unattended at a shop or restaurant. Preferably ensure that the card is always swiped on the POS machine in your presence
  • Never sign an incomplete or incorrect sales slip. Make sure it is totaled.
  • Always keep a copy of the bill payment charge-slip and ATM receipts for cash withdrawals.
