Intergiro incorporates 3D Secure (3DS), a technical standard developed by Visa and MasterCard, to add an extra layer of security to online card transactions. This system is essential for verifying that payments are legitimate and authorized directly by the cardholder, thereby reducing the risk of fraud and unauthorized charges.
How 3D Secure Works with Intergiro
Authentication Process: When making an online purchase, you'll be prompted to verify your identity. This verification happens in the Intergiro mobile app, where you must approve the payment or card verification request.
Mobile App Requirement: To receive and respond to payment verification requests, it is mandatory to have the Intergiro mobile app installed and to activate 3DS. This app is the sole method for receiving and approving payment authentication requests.
Account and App Synchronization: Ensure that you are using the correct Intergiro account associated with the card you intend to use online. This synchronization is crucial for the authentication process to function correctly.
What If You Don't Have the App Installed?
Transaction Failure: If you attempt an online purchase without the Intergiro app installed, the payment verification request will expire, and the transaction will not be completed. This preventive measure ensures that all online card uses are secured and authorized.
