# How 3-D Secure Verification Works?

3-D Secure is an additional security layer for online payments that ensures you're the only person who can use your card. When you shop online, we verify your identity through our Telegram bot using one of two simple methods:

**Two Verification Options:**

**1. One-Tap Approval**

* Receive instant verification request in @azulcardsbot
* Review transaction amount and merchant
* Tap **Yes** to approve or **No** to decline

**2. Secure Code Verification**

* Get a unique 6-digit code in the bot
* Enter this code on the payment page

*Dual verification methods give you both convenience and maximum security for all your online purchases.* 🔒
