What is the CVV of the Nubank card?
To answer this question, we need to understand how purchases made with a credit card work.
For purchases made in person, the card is inserted into the machine and the password entered for the purchase to be confirmed.
In online shopping, this does not happen in the same way. Thus, as it is not safe to inform the password, the CVV was created, that is, the Card Verification Code. It has three digits and allows you to inform the data for the purchase such as the card number, name printed on the card, expiration date and flag.
That way, never enter your password when shopping online, just the CVV also known as CVC, but the security code is the same.
It is important to note that this number is never recorded anywhere other than on the credit card and also does not appear on receipts after the purchase is made.
Also, it is printed on the back of the card, however, it is not embossed so that it cannot draw attention. So, in case of fraud, all you have to do is contact the Nubank Customer Service Center. Click on the recommended content below to learn more about Nubank!
