Visa

What is it?

Verified by Visa, a new service introduced by Visa International, is a secure and easy-to-use service which gives you extra protection when
you pay online.

Why is it more secure?

Extra protection with password
When you shop at batterieslaptop.co.uk, you enter your personal password in the
same way you would enter your PIN at an ATM. It means that only you can use
your Visa Card online, giving you the same assurances you have when you use
your card in a physical store. (You don't need any special software)

Extra protection with Personal Assurance Message
When you register Verified by Visa service, you are asked to create your own
Personal Assurance Message (PAM). Everytime you pay online, remember to
check your PAM before you enter your password to ensure that you are dealing
with your Card Issuer.

How does it work?

1. First of all, go to your Card Issuer's Verified by Visa secure
registration web page
2. Enter your existing Visa Card details as requested.
3. Create your PAM and personal password (once registered, you can use this
password each time you make a purchase)
4. Then...shop at our website with Verified by Visa
5. Select VISA as the payment method * and enter the Card details
6. Wait for the authentication screen...
7. Look for your PAM to make sure you are dealing with your Card Issuer.
8. Enter and submit your Verified by Visa password to authorize the
transaction and complete your purchase.
9. On average, the Verified by Visa process adds the total transaction time
longer. Please be patient and don't close the pop-up verify window.
