Hello @Castro

 

Merchants participating in Secure Internet Shopping service will accept payment with a Standard Bank card only if you have activated your card for the service. Note that you will not be able to use your card to shop online at participating merchants unless you have activated your card for the service.

 

About the activation process
When activating your card you will need to provide the following:

  • Card number
  • Card verification value, which is the last three numbers on the signature panel on the back of your card
  • Expiry date
  • Name embossed on the card
  • Please enter your name exactly as it appears on your card (title, initials and surname) eg. Mr JM Smith.
  • Personal identification in the form of the number that appears in either the identity document or passport which Standard Bank has on record from when you opened your card account.
  • Enter a personal message that will appear when you are at the checkout point of a participating merchant and before you enter your PIN. See "Your personal message" for more about this.
  • Choose and confirm a PIN. See "Your PIN" for more on this.

Your personal message
The phrase you enter may not exceed 30 characters and should be unique to you so that you can recognise it as yours. This gives you the assurance that your transaction is secure.

 

Regards,

Boitumelo
