1-) Your internet browser should be the latest Mozilla Firefox, Google chrome or internet explorer 10 and above.
2-) Your visa card or master card must be secure; this means you must activate Verify by Visa for visa card holders, Secure Code for master card holders. Contact your bank for this activation.

You can’t receive the code if your card isn’t activated for this service.
3-) Your Password should have minimum 8 and maximum of 15 characters with at least 1 Uppercase, 1 Lowercase Alphabet, 1 Number and 1 Special Character ($ @ # $ ! % * ? &).
