Using your Visa cards abroad safely

Enroll for the Visa Mobile Location Confirmation service for your credit and debit cards

Visa mobile location confirmation

When you are traveling, you want to be sure that you can use your debit or credit card to make convenient, secure and smart payments wherever you are.

Emirates NBD and Visa bring you the Location Confirmation Service which protects you no matter where you travel in the world.

Our Location Confirmation Service uses the power of real time geo-location intelligence to evaluate whether your mobile device and your Emirates NBD Visa debit or credit card are in the same location when you are making a purchase withdrawing cash. With this information, your transactions are less likely to be classified as fraud, ensuring enhanced security and convenience especially when you are travelling abroad.
