To start the enrollment process, you will be prompted to enter your card number.

STEP 6:
You'll then be asked to create your SecureCode.
STEP 7:
You will then be asked to create your Personal Greeting - a short phrase (1-30 characters long) that you set-up during enrolment. This text should be personal, however not secret. Each time a Secure transaction is requested by you on a participating merchant site, your card issuer will display you Personal Message. Please note - you cannot select a Personal Message that will be identical to the password. Your password must be kept secret, while the Personal Message is openly displayed to you on the receipt during the request authentication process.
STEP 8:
Some card issuers will give you the opportunity to register any other MasterCard credit cards which you may have from the same card issuer.
STEP 9:
Done! You are now enrolled to approve transactions whenever requesting transactions online with a MasterCard SecureCode merchant like ECash Direct.
Enrollment through a Participating MSC Online Merchant
STEP 1:
While completing a request with a participating online merchant, click on "Submit".
STEP 2:
After you submit your request, a message from your MasterCard issuer will appear and ask you to confirm your identity.
STEP 3:
Complete your card issuer's security questions.
STEP 4:
Choose your private SecureCode and confirm your card details - can be Name on Card or the Card Security Code (the last three digits that appear on the back of your card, on the top right hand corner of the signature panel. It is requested as an extra security measure to make sure you are in possession of the card you are enrolling).
STEP 5:
Done! Click Submit to complete your request.
Once Enrolled (either through the card issuer or participating online merchant):
The next time you request a transaction at any merchant that features the SecureCode logo, you will be prompted for your SecureCode to confirm your identity - just like entering your PIN at the ATM. This authenticates that you are the legitimate holder of the card and have gone through the enrollment process.
You will see information about the merchant, the amount of your request, the date of the request, the last four digits of your account number, and the Personal Greeting you set up during enrollment.
All you do is enter your private SecureCode to complete your request. This confirmation is done directly with your card issuer; the participating merchant has no access to this personal data.
