Next Version of ShopSite Support Card Verfication Codes?

Postby Larry Bohen » Sun Oct 14, 2001 5:36 am

I just visited www.merchantfraudsquad.com and found the following in
their "Five Tools You Can Use to Prevent Fraud" section:

----------------------------------------------------------------------
Card Verification Codes

Card verification codes (known as CVV2 for Visa, CVVC for MasterCard,
and CID for American Express) are a fairly new way of verifying that a
credit card is valid. For American Express, the code is a four digit
number that appears on the front of the card above the account number.
For Visa and MasterCard, the code is a three digit number that appears
at the end of the account number on the back of the card. The code does
not get printed on any receipts.

As a merchant, you can ask for this code on your online order form. In
fact, MasterCard will require merchants to collect this information as
of April 1, 2001.

Will the next version of ShopSite support 'Card Verification Codes'?
