To make online payments safer, the Reserve Bank of India has made it mandatory, for all online transactions to have an additional level of authentication from August 1, 2009 onwards. For Visa credit/debit cards, the additional level of security is the Verified by Visa password that you will have to enter after providing your credit/debit card details while making online bill payments through Visa Bill Pay.
You need to register with your issuing bank to obtain the Verified By Visa password. If you are not registered with your issuing bank, then your Visa card may be declined while making a payment through Visa Bill Pay, from August 1, 2009
