How to make online payment by card securely?
In the year 2014, the Bank of Lithuania has approved the Minimum Requirements for the Security of Internet Payments. Seeking to ensure the possibility for our customers to buy purchase goods or services securely online, any new card or a renewed card will be issued by the bank without the possibility to pay by card online. You may conveniently and safely activate the payment by card online functionality by phone 1528 on a 24-hour basis (for private customers) (from abroad +370 5 268 2800) or by visiting any unit of AB SEB bankas.
To be able to ensure that online payments by card are more secure, we have joined international security programmes MasterCard SecureCode and Verified by Visa.
Before making payment for the goods or services to online stores with a MasterCard SecureCode or Verified by Visa mark, you must enter a secret unique security code sent to you via an SMS.
What are the benefits for you?
Once you enter the unique security code, it will take us just a few seconds to verify your identity, make sure that you are the cardholder and that you can make payment by card. If an incorrect security code is entered, payment by card is not accepted and no money is written down from the account. A new code will be sent to you via an SMS automatically.
The MasterCard SecureCode or Verified by Visa programme ensures that no-one else but you can make an online payment by card.
How?
- Choose a product or service in an online store marked by MasterCard SecureCode and Verified by Visa logos, enter the usual information about the payment card required for payment online such as the card number, its expiry date and three-digit security code (CVC2 or CVV2).
- A SEB bank secure online payment window will open automatically.
- Make sure that the displayed information about payment for the product or service is correct and enter the unique security code consisting of two Latin alphabet letters and eight digits sent to you by the bank via an SMS. To confirm your transaction it is necessary to enter the digits only.
- If the security code is correct, your payment will be accepted.
