Ecommerce transaction volume continues to grow and the potential growth over the next five to ten years is significant. Even with these favourable trends, there are concerns regarding the potential for fraudulent use of payment cards on the Internet. Chargeback rates for Internet purchase transactions are several times the system average and Internet-related fraud cases constitute a significant percentage of all reported fraud cases. The majority of the chargeback reasons are fraud-related or cardholders claiming non participation. The 3D Secure protocol was developed by Visa to improve the security of Internet payments. It is designed to allow authentication of cardholders by their Issuers at participating merchants. The objective is to benefit all participants by providing Issuers the ability to fully authenticate cardholders during an online purchase, reducing the likelihood of fraudulent usage of credit and debit cards and improving overall transaction performance. Visa has licensed the 3D Secure protocol to other major payment brands, establishing the 3D Secure protocol as a global standard for authenticated payments. Visa's 3D Secure brand is called Verified by Visa. The equivalent MasterCard brand is called MasterCard SecureCode. From August 2007 the SecureCode authentication has been mandated by MasterCard for ALL Maestro internet transactions and is therefore essential for adultslovefun. How 3D Secure Works Cardholders must register their cards at the Issuer's registration site to take advantage of the service. Typically, this one-time process involves answering several security questions to which only the Issuer and the cardholder know the answer. The cardholder selects a password and agrees on a secret phrase, which will be used by the Issuer during each transaction. When shopping online cardholders must enter their password before their online transaction can be authorised. In seconds, the issuer confirms it is the true cardholder performing the transaction. Cardholders enjoy peace of mind knowing that no one else has access to their password. The authentication data gives the merchant explicit evidence of an authorised purchase. 3D Secure enabled merchants like adultslovefun immediately benefit from a chargeback liability shift on all transactions. This means that merchants are no longer liable for chargebacks where the cardholder claims fraud or non participation (including transactions where the cardholder is not yet enrolled for 3D Secure). adultslovefun were among the earliest to adopt 3D Secure and the service is fully supported across all our systems. Is my payment secure? Security is an important concern for both the consumer and adultslovefun during an online transaction.

PayPoint's public web servers are certified by Verisign, a public Certificate Authority, ensuring that both the consumer and adultslovefun can have confidence that nobody can impersonate PayPoint to obtain confidential information.

What is 3D Secure?
3D Secure stands for Three Domain Secure - the payment industry's internet authentication standard which has been developed by the major card schemes. Visa has called their version of the scheme ‘Verified by Visa' and MasterCard have called their equivalent initiative ‘MasterCard SecureCode'. These are both collectively referred to as 3D Secure. 3D Secure authentication requires the cardholder to register their card to take advantage of this service. This is a one time process which takes place on the card issuer's website and involves the cardholder answering several security questions to which only the card issuer and cardholder will know the answer. The cardholder selects a password and agrees on a secret phrase, which will be used by the card issuer during each online transaction. 3D Secure can be thought of as an online version of ‘Chip and Pin' technology, whereby the cardholder has a personalised password registered with their card that is entered during the checkout process. 3D Secure is predicted to become the industry standard by the end of 2007 and all online consumers will soon become as familiar with this, as when they enter their ‘Pin' number at a cash machine or till in a shop.

The growth of ecommerce You will have seen that the volume of internet trade is growing at a phenomenal rate; however some criminal elements are taking advantage of this growth to target websites with stolen card details. It is now more vital than ever, to protect our business & customers against this increased risk of fraud.
The role of 3D Secure Internet transactions are classed as ‘cardholder not present' (CNP) transactions. Until recently, there was no easy way for you to identify a cardholder and confirm that it was indeed the legitimate cardholder entering the card details. A significant proportion of chargebacks can arise as a result of the cardholder denying that they authorised a transaction. It is traditionally very difficult for you to successfully appeal against this sort of chargeback. The 3D Secure technology is designed to reduce the possibility of fraudulent card use by authenticating the cardholder at the actual time of the transaction and subsequently reducing our exposure to disputed transactions and chargebacks of this type. We understand some of our customers are confused about how you use your credit/debit card to purchase online because of the new security checks called 3D Secure so we thought we'd take this opportunity to clear a few points 2.3D secure registration/sign in is requested by your bank etc not us 3.Registration is a onetime process with your bank not us (we just offer you the opportunity) 4.We believe this is the future for all online purchases 5.Once you have registered you can use your password for all future online transaction on all websites using this service on the internet and not just adultslovefun. 6.You will have only 1 password for all online purchases, after all you don't have a different code for different supermarkets using your chip and pin card do you? 7.This security can be thought of as an online version of chip and pin
