Your 3 Digit security code



But it is actually:-

Anyones name

Your Card Number

Your 3 Digit security code

So did I

But now i find that as long as the Card Number and 3 Digit Security Code are correct, any name can be used.

If you are browsing with Firefox, download an extension called "keyscrambler" as this prevents keyloggers from seeing any passwords and personal details as you enter/send them online. ;)

Strictly speaking, when processing a `card holder not present` payment, (a payment over the phone or mail order), the cardholder`s name isn`t needed because you don`t enter that into the machine.

Depending on the type of card (not all details are necessary) you usually need:

card number
start date
expiry date
issue number
security numbers
cardholder`s address (with postcode and house number if available)
