Changes to using your card online

When you’re shopping online, we may need to confirm that it’s really you using your card. This is an extra layer of security called Strong Customer Authentication (SCA for short) making online shopping even more secure.

We have introduced new ways to confirm it’s you, such as using an app or using a password for online purchases along with a one-time passcode.

When you’re shopping online after you’ve entered in your card details to pay, a Visa screen may appear and ask you to confirm your transaction. The on screen instructions will tell you what to do next.

With just a few taps, the AIB Mobile App is the easiest way to confirm it’s really you making a purchase.
