Latest news about Internet payments via 3D Secure

We simplified the way you use your BRD card for Internet payments and enhanced security. Thus, for transactions performed at merchants that have implemented 3D Secure service, you will receive a unique code via SMS for transaction validation.

If you already had set a password for Internet transactions, it was replaced by the unique code sent by SMS each time you perform a transaction on a 3D Secure website. To receive the code all you have to do is make sure you have a valid mobile phone number, stated to BRD.

HERE'S HOW THE TRANSACTION WILL TAKE PLACE:

1. You pay online with your BRD card

After entering the card details, in the payment screen you will have to enter the initial password, the last 6 characters of the CNP.

2. Choose the new password

You will set a new password, which you will use for all future card transactions on the Internet. We recommend that you choose your new password carefully, as it will be required to validate each online payment.

3. Choose / check the phone number on which to receive the unique code via SMS

If you have several phone numbers declared at the bank, select the one you want to receive the unique transaction validation code. If you have not registered any telephone number in the bank's database or none of the numbers displayed are out of date, please contact us at any BRD branch to define a new phone number and, implicitly, to complete the transaction.

4. You receive the validation code

Enter the unique validation code received via SMS on the mobile phone number declared to the bank. Confirm the transaction by entering the unique code on the payment screen. The code is issued for each online transaction and is valid for 15 minutes.

Important! Confirmation of the transaction also leads to a successful change of the new password.
If you forgot your password, you can reset it by pressing the "Forgot password" button.

Using 3D Secure your card details will not be known any time by the virtual seller, thus avoiding any situation where a deal could be done without your approval.
