How to activate it?
Log in to S-Net or S-Net Mobile, go to “Settings – Credit cards – 3D Secure” and follow the on-screen instructions. You can then instantly use your credit cards on e-commerce sites offering 3D Secure.
How does it work?
When you use your credit card to make a purchase on a 3D Secure site, a separate screen will pop up displaying your “personal message”. You will then be able to validate the payment by entering the single-use code delivered to the medium of your choice:

You can only register one LuxTrust Token and one LuxTrust Mobile certificate for each card.
