Objective: In this section we explain to customers that win an auction on our site how to use our primary payment options - MasterCard and Visa.
MasterCard SecureCode:
MasterCard SecureCode is a service designed to enhance your existing MasterCard account. A private code means added protection against unauthorized use of your card when you shop at participating online retailers.
Once you've registered and created your own private SecureCode, you will be automatically prompted by your financial institution at checkout to provide your SecureCode each time you make a purchase with a participating online merchant. Your SecureCode is quickly confirmed by your financial institution and then your purchase is completed. Your SecureCode will never be shared with Pennies Trifecta LLC. It's just like entering your PIN at an ATM.
When you correctly enter your SecureCode during a purchase at a participating online merchant, you confirm that you are the authorized cardholder and your purchase is then completed. If an incorrect SecureCode is entered, the purchase will not be completed. Even if someone knows your credit or debit card number, the purchase cannot be completed without your SecureCode at a participating merchant.
You will be able to use any of your existing MasterCard credit or debit cards, as long as the cards are from a participating financial institution. We encourage you to register all of your MasterCard cards. There is no limit on how many cards you can register.
In addition to our other ways of preventing, detecting, and resolving fraud, we offer Verified by Visa, a simple-to-use service that confirms your identity with an extra password when you make an online transaction.
How To Activate The Verified By Visa Feature - Enroll your credit or debit card in the Verified by Visa program at the secure Visa site or at your participating card issuer's website or while shopping online at Pennies Trifecta LLC. Your Verification Password will never be shared with Pennies Trifecta LLC.
If the bank that issued your credit, debt or prepaid card does not participate in the 3D Secure processes described above or if they do not allow payment to offshore accounts (Pennies Trifecta LLC's merchant account is offshore) you may have issues paying on our site. We are prepared to offer alternate payment options in those situations. Just contact service@penniestrifecta.com and we will promptly work it out.
