Visa has launched a payment card in Europe to improve security for online transactions.
The CodeSure card contains a keypad and an eight-character display for showing a one-time passcode for any Visa debit or credit card.
“As the cardholder is required to enter their Pin [personal identification number] for every online transaction, the CodeSure card will prevent any unauthorised use,” Visa said.
Nice.
