A CVV, or Card Verification Value, is a three- or four-digit security code that is printed on the back of credit cards and debit cards. It is used to verify that the card is present when a transaction is being made. The CVV is not stored on the magnetic stripe of the card, so it cannot be skimmed or stolen if the card is lost or stolen.
There are a few ways to find the CVV on a credit card or debit card without having the card itself. One way is to look at the card’s statement. The CVV is usually printed on the statement next to the card number. Another way to find the CVV is to log in to the card’s online account. The CVV is usually displayed in the account settings.
