Even though the introduction of (contact) EMV cards does not appear to be causing the predicted increase in “card not present” transactions, resisting fraud in online commerce is both necessary and urgent. My preference is for merchants not to accept credit card numbers at all, preferring the use of proxies like Visa Checkout, PayPal, and Apple Pay. However, if they insist upon accepting credit card numbers, it is only prudent that they use services like Verified by Visa and MasterCard SecureCode to resist their fraudulent use.
