Q.What is CVV?
A.

Visa's Card Verification Value (CVV) and MasterCard's Card Validation Code (CVC) were introduced several years ago as an additional security measure in the fight against fraud.

The 3-digit number is only printed on the back of your card. It is not printed on receipts, and is not stored anywhere, so the only way to know the correct number is to have possession of the card.

 
Q.How do find my credit card's CVV?
A.

The number can be found by turning your card over and looking in the signature strip. There you will find your credit card number (or the last 4 digits) followed by a space and then your 3-digit CVV/CVC.
