Get purchase protection against fraud when you shop online at a participating merchant.
Visa Consumer Authentication Service (VCAS) is a verification service that evaluates the likelihood that the transaction wasn't made by you, automatically and without your intervention.
In rare cases that require you to confirm some information, you'll be asked to call Desjardins Card Services' Customer Service at the number on the back of your card to approve the legitimacy of the transaction.
Once approved, you'll be able to go back to the merchant site to complete your transaction.
Make sure that participating merchants have the most up-to-date credit card account information.
A new service is being offered by Visa where participating merchants who have been authorized to withdraw recurring payments (e.g., newspaper subscriptions, telecommunications) receive automatic updates when your credit card number and expiry date change.
Not all merchants are enrolled in VAU. The next time your card is updated, contact the merchants you do business with to see if they do. If they don't, just provide them with your new credit card information.
You're automatically signed up for this service. If you'd like to opt out, please call us at the customer service line on the back of your card.
