Do you just love playing online bingo, but sometimes wonder if your payments into your accounts are safe and secure? Well things are moving more towards being secure for everyone who wants to make deposits into their online bingo accounts.
It is a global security measure being run by Master Card and will affect everyone using Maestro and Switch cards to make their top ups. When making any kind of purchase online, be it Bingo, Slots, Poker or shopping you will be subject to a Secure 3D additional verification process. Much like Visa already have in place.
MasterCard 3D verification process is easy to get going, all you will need to do is register and set a password for all future purchases. For all users not registered with MasterCard 3D and wanting to top up their online bingo accounts, they will receive the following message. “We’re sorry, we are unable to verify your card details. Please ensure you are enrolled to the MasterCard secure code service and try to deposit again”.
It could be a messy time for online bingo players, so be warned that the changes are happening. The majority of UK online bingo players top up their accounts with credit cards, so even though this could be a painful process to begin with, in the long run I am sure it will be a safer option for all.
