Some
of the Processes which ActiveMerchant.com has implemented and foresee
in their Merchants to provide Consumers for Top Security.
Address Verification Service (AVS)
The “AVS”, or address verification service, is used to determine
that the address provided by a customer matches the address associated
with a credit card account. This helps generate confidence that
the person who is entering the credit card details is the person
who owns it.
Card Verification Value
The “CVV”, or card verification value, sometimes referred to as the
CVV-2 is a three to four digit number found on the back of American
Express, MasterCard and Visa cards. It’s on the card but not on any
statements, so that if an individual has found a credit card statement
in the trash, they aren’t able to complete a sale that requires the
CVV code for verification purposes. When a customer is able to enter
the CVV code, it’s a strong indication that the customer has the credit
card in hand, which increases the potential of the card belonging
to the person who is attempting to use it to make a purchase online.
Complete Validation of compliance is performed both internally
and externally, depending on the volume of card transactions the
organization is handling, but regardless of the size of the organization.
