CVV is an anti-fraud security feature designed to help verify that you are in possession of your credit card. For Visa and MasterCard, the three-digit CVV number is printed on the signature panel on the back of the card immediately after the card’s account number. For American Express, the four-digit CVV number is printed on the front of the card above the card account number. Your transaction will be declined if the CVV on record does not match the information you have provided.
