    Hey everyone, have you ever wondered about the difference between a card validation code and a card verification value? They seem pretty similar, but there's a bit more to it.

    Yeah, I've seen those terms on my credit cards but never really understood the difference. Can you explain?

    Hi there. If you're seeking guidance, I'm here to assist. CVC, also known as card validation code, and CVV, or card verification value, are both 3-digit security authentication numbers printed on the back of payment cards. CVC/CVV codes https://corefy.com/glossary/card-validation-code-cvc-card-verification-value-cvv play a crucial role in ensuring the security of online payments. By requiring the entry of the CVC or CVV during a transaction, merchants can verify that the cardholder is physically in possession of the card. This extra layer of authentication helps prevent unauthorized usage of the card details for online purchases, enhancing overall transaction security.
