What are Verified By Visa and MasterCard SecureCode
Visa and MasterCard have developed authenticated payment capabilities to improve online transaction security. By creating a virtual signature in the form of a password chosen by you when you sign up, Visa and MasterCard hopes
to provide a safer online commerce experience for Cardholders.
Verified By Visa and MasterCard SecureCode enable two parties (card holder and card issuer) to authenticate each other by exchanging digital certificates (electronic identifications) before proceeding with an online transaction, assuring the Cardholder that he is dealing with a legitimate merchant and providing the merchant with proof of participation of the real Cardholder. This gives both parties the confidence to proceed and creates a digitally signed record of the transaction that can be verified afterwards.
Get more detailed information about the Verified by Visa program. You can also directly activate your credit card for Verified by Visa online.
For Master Card SecureCode, find out more about this verification process on the Master Card SecureCode page.
Will my credit card be charged if I do not use the service as scheduled

How long does it take to process the refund
The duration required to process a refund depends on the method of payment originally used. Here are the specifics for each payment gateway:
• PayPal: Refunds via PayPal are usually quick and should appear in your account within 24 to 72 hours of the initiation. However, if the original payment to us was made via a credit card or bank transfer through PayPal, the refund may take additional time to be credited back to your account. This delay is due to the processing times associated with your bank. In such cases, it could take up to 5 business days for the refund to reflect in your bank statement.
• Omise (OPN): For payments processed through Omise, the refund timeline can be slightly longer. Once we initiate the refund, it typically takes about 5 to 10 business days for the money to appear back in your account. This variance in time is due to the differing policies and processing speeds of the banks involved. It’s important to note that some banks might handle refund transactions faster than others, so the exact timing can vary.
We understand that timely processing of refunds is important to you, and we strive to ensure that all refunds are handled as swiftly as possible. If you have concerns about the status of your refund, or if it has not appeared in your account within the specified time frames, please contact our customer service for assistance. We are here to help ensure your satisfaction and resolve any issues promptly.
