Payment transactions online with bank cards, issued by UBB, using VISA Secure and MASTERCARD Identity Check

 

In order to enhance the security of online card transactions and in accordance with the applicable legislation, United Bulgarian Bank provides its cardholders with the 3D Secure online card payment service, which includes a two-factor authentication model.

 

 

 

This means that before completing the payment, you will be required to provide additional authentication, depending on the method you use: either your biometric data; or a combination of a static secure code (which only you know) and a dynamic secure code (received for each online payment via an SMS).

 

Registration of payments cards for 3D Secure

 

Option 1: In order to register your cards for authorization of payment transactions in UBB Mobile using a biometric feature of yours, you need to perform the following steps:

1. Activate the „Turn on 3DS“ button in “Cards” sub-menu in the UBB Mobile app. The button activation will register all your cards from UBB for the purpose of authorizing payment transactions via a biometric feature of yours.

 

2.     After clicking on the „Turn on 3DS” button you will receive a text (SMS) message by the Bank on your mobile phone, containing a 4-digit one-time code. You should enter the received code in the respective screen of the UBB Mobile app.

3.  After successful entry of the code you have the option to choose whether to authorize payment transactions with a fingerprint, face recognition or another biometric feature of yours (depending on the device, on which you use UBB Mobile), as well as to create a 3DS PIN code, which you could use as a back-up solution in case the transaction cannot be authorized with a biometric feature or if you do not wish to use biometric features upon authorization of payments on the Internet.

 

4. Upon successfully completed steps from 1 to 3 you will receive a confirmation for registration of your cards for 3DS authentication via a biometric feature.

Option 2: Registration by creating a static 3D secure code in UBB Online

 

You need to go through the following steps:

1.     In CARDS menu -> Actions you should select the Create a Static 3D Secure Code function. 

2.     Create a Static 3D Secure Code screen will be visualized. From the CARD NUMBER drop-down menu, you should select the card, for which you want to create a Static 3D Secure Code and you should confirm with the CHOOSE button.

 

 

 

2. Creating a Static 3D Secure Code screen will open. From the CARD NUMBER drop-down menu you should select the card, for which you wish to create a static 3D Secure Code and you should confirm it with the CHOOSE button.

 

 

 

3. You should then save the code, created by you in the NEW STATIC 3D SECURE CODE field, while complying with the requirements for minimum length of 6 characters and inclusion of at least one uppercase letter, one lowercase letter and a digit. Permitted for use symbols are the following: _@!%()#“+-./:=?$;^. Please, re-enter the created by you static 3D Secure Code in the CONFIRM STATIC 3D SECURE CODE field and click on the CONFIRM button.

 

 

 

4. Having followed steps from 1 to 3 a message will appear on the screen about a successfully created static 3D Secure Code.

 

N.B! You should follow the above steps from 1 to 4 for each card of yours, for which you would like to have a static 3D Secure Code generated.

To register: website UBB do dd.mm.yyyy hh:mm

 

Click on the CONTINUE button.

 

5. On the next screen you should enter the created by you permanent static password. It should be 6-character long, containing only letters, digits, special symbols or combination of them; as character sequences like 111, 1234, aaaa, abcd, etc. are not allowed.
