Visa and Mastercard SecureCode

Verified by Visa and Mastercard SecureCode are new services that protect your card details with a personal password in order to provide greater security to online shoppers.

In order for Verified by Visa and Mastercard Secure Code to work, you will need to register your card with a password (which will be known only by you). You only need to do this once, then whenever you use the card to shop online, you will be asked to enter the password during the checkout process.

If you are not already registered for Verified by Visa or Mastercard Secure Code, you may be asked by your bank to register your card during the BBC Shop online checkout process and you will be directed to your bank's website to do so. If you would like to register your card without placing an order online at BBC Shop, you will need to contact the bank that issued your credit card.

If you have previously registered for Verified by Visa or Mastercard Secure Code, you will be prompted to enter your password when placing your order online at BBC Shop.
