What is a CCV code?
A CVV code (also called a CVV2 code) is an anti-fraud security feature used by your card issuer to help verify that you are in possession of your credit card.
For Visa/Mastercard, the three-digit CVV number is printed on the signature panel on the back of the card immediately after the card's account number.
For American Express, the four-digit CVV number is printed on the front of the card above the card account number.
