Mastercard SecureCode

Mastercard SecureCode is a security initiative developed by Mastercard to enhance the safety of online transactions. It represents Mastercard's implementation of the 3-D Secure 1.0 protocol, which provides an additional layer of security for online credit and debit card transactions. The program is designed to protect both merchants and consumers from the risks associated with unauthorized card usage, particularly in card-not-present transaction environments such as online shopping.

Mastercard SecureCode is part of a broader range of security measures that Mastercard has adopted to ensure the safety of electronic transactions. As online shopping continues to grow, tools like SecureCode are essential for maintaining the integrity of online payments and protecting all parties involved from the increasing risks of fraud.
