What is the CVV number of an ATM card and where to use it

Today this article will know what is a CVV number in an ATM. Whenever you buy something on a website or app online, you ask for the details of your debit or credit card.  After giving all this information like card number, cardholder name, expiry date and CVV number, etc., you can easily make payment.  Almost everyone knows about the card number, holder name and expiry date, but very few people know about the CVV number.

This code is on the back of the card which is three digits in most ATM cards.  If you also shop online, then you must have also seen that the website or app takes your permission and keeps the details of your card saved for your next payment.

So that whenever you make further payment, you do not need to fill the details of the card, but it contains a CVV number code which no website saves by keeping it in its server. Meaning whenever you shop online with your card, you must also enter the CVV number every time you pay. The shopping site cannot save your CVV number because they are not allowed to do so, you will know why in this post.

What Is CVV Number Of An ATM card ?


Actually CVV Number is a security code which has a full form card Verification Value. It is often also known as CVC (card verification code). It is backwards in debit and credit cards. Earlier, it used to have up to 11 digits, but now it has been reduced to three (3) digits, given the convenience of the user.

For your information, tell us that CVV was invented in the UK in 1995 by Michael Stone. For this, an investigation was done and it was found that CVV helps to secure the card online. After which all the card companies have started giving CVV numbers on their debit and credit cards, earlier it used to be 11 digits but now it has been reduced to 3 digits.

The card has many types of codes and passwords, some of which work offline and some online.  For example, if you withdraw money from the ATM machine, your PIN number is asked when you insert the card there.  Whereas, when purchasing online from the card, you need a CVV number.  Just like the PIN keeps your security in the ATM, in the online website CVV protects your card.

Where to use CVV code?


Whenever we go to withdraw money at the ATM, the top of our card can also be seen by the people around. If people want, they can also save their card information for online shopping with a secret camera. But this information remains incomplete without CVV code as the CVV is on the back of the card which is not easily visible. In this way, this code keeps your card safe in the Internet like your PIN.

Apart from this, while shopping with the card, you are also asked for a CVV code for it, it shows whether the person who has filled the details of the card actually has a card or not. If the user enters the wrong CVV code, then his payment remains incomplete, that is why the bank always asks you not to share your CVV number with anyone.

But if your credit card gets caught in the hands of a thief and he fully accesses it, then you cannot save the money in your account. So whenever your card is stolen or lost, you should first talk to your bank's customer care and get it blocked and all banks recommend it.

How to know the CVV number of an ATM card?


If you are a common customer then you can have a debit card of Visa, Rupay or Mastercard company. The CVV number is Visa or Mastercard company's debit and credit card with 3 digits under the magnetic black bar on the back side of the card. While the CVV in the American Express card is four digits, and it is on the front of the card. The CW number is on all credit and debit cards, so you should not be afraid to find it.

CONCLUSION


So now you must know what a CVV number is If you also use debit or credit card for online shopping, then you should keep your CVV number hidden. Just like you keep the debit card PIN, this code is used only for online transactions, if any person asks for CVV code then do not share it at all. CVV is usually for the security of your card, so you should not share it with anyone. !! THANKS !!
