Payment Processing
Advance payment is required to validate your reservation. Payments on this site can only be made using MASTERCARD or VISA, through our secured Internet pages. Your bank card details will be encrypted (up to 128 bits) with the SSL (Secured Socket Layer) protocol. Your bank card details are never transmitted unencrypted on the Internet. Payment stays on hold until the services are confirmed: 3D Secure (3DS).
What is the 3D Secure payment system?
3D Secure is a secure online payment system developed by Visa and MasterCard. This payment system offers maximum protection against online bank fraud. It requires you to verify your identity as the owner of your card and is only available for Visa and MasterCard accounts. The procedure is simple and involves 3 steps:
Place your booking and enter your bank card (debit or credit card) information.
If the security system is activated for your card, a 3D SecureTM window will open. Your bank will ask you to verify your identity by entering an authentication code. In most cases, this is a single-use security code sent to you by SMS. Warning: after 3 failed authentication attempts, your transaction will be canceled, and a hold will be placed on your card. In this case, you will have to contact your bank.
Once you enter the correct security code, and your payment is accepted, your booking will be confirmed by email. This system is designed to limit the risk of online fraud and identity theft. With this system, you are the only one who can use your bank card (debit or credit card) online!
Please remember that Paris Webservices never asks for your bank account information by email. This information is only entered on the payment page of our websites and/or your bank's payment page for authentication codes. Also, note that certain banks may not process 3D Secure payments from a country other than your country of residence.
