The service is managed from Cyotas local facility in London. MasterCard SecureCode and Verified by Visa are designed to provide Internet shoppers with a virtual receipt to sign at the point of purchase, thus reducing online fraud. The initiatives - MasterCard SecureCode and Verified by Visa - facilitate cardholder authentication for online transactions, which helps to reduce online fraud, and at the same time increase cardholder confidence. The initiatives have been adopted by nearly all of the top global issuers.
