Verified by Visa/3d secure? It's not exactly two factors, it's just more tedious data entry you have to do. And I've got it turned off on my card.

Actual 2fa would be great. I was wondering about the enourmous amount of work that would enable websites to support contactless ..

No, the processor will redirect you to the page of your bank where you need to enter a code sent by sms by your bank. This is true 2fa, it works at least with all Russian banks I've used and I'm sure it works in EU the same way (I thought it was like that everywhere in the world?)

Nope. UK Mastercard, no verification or 2fa. I guess we're not as secure as Russia in this case!

My EU banks (Sweden) implement 3dSecure with either a 2FA phone app or a physical chip card reader that signs a one-time code. Real 2FA.

That page always sketches me out, to boot. Could they have made it look/behave more like a phishing scam?

My Austrian bank has actual 2FA and pretty sure that is nandatory in the eurozone for new cards.
