Location of the code depends on the type of card
you are using.
For VISA, MasterCard and Discover, the
number is the last 3 digits (usually set off by
themselves) on the Signature Panel on the back of the
card.
For American Express, look for a 4-digit
number printed above your account number on the face
of the card.
What is the purpose of this number?
Since there is no "signature" provided with an on-line credit
card payment, this number is used to verify that a customer
actually has the credit card in their possession.
Phonepower® Inc. has
zero tolerance for fraud. We are committed to protecting
our customers through the use of a secure web site, verification
using the CCVC, and prosecution of violators.
If you have any further questions regarding the use of this
number, please do not hesitate to

Service Representative.
