About CVV and 3-D Secure


All credit and debit card transactions on SportsGEO.com require you to enter the CVV number and 3-D secure password to provide you with increased protection while making payments using your card.


CVV:


CVV stands for Card Verification Value and is generally the last three digits of the number present on the back of your card. It's located in or near the area where you sign your card.


When you make payments using credit/ debit card, your card number will be stored on our secure server so that you do not have to enter it every time you make a purchase using the same card. However, we will ask for your CVV number every time you place an order. Your CVV number will not be stored on our server to ensure enhanced security of your transaction.


3-D Secure Password:


3-D secure password is an additional password that you'll be asked to enter after entering your card details on the payments page. You'll be redirected to your bank's website from the payments page, where you'll have to enter the Verified by Visa password for Visa or SecureCode password for MasterCard.


Note: 3-D secure password has been made mandatory by the Reserve Bank of India to ensure safer online shopping. This will prevent misuse of a lost/ stolen card as the user will be unable to proceed unless they enter the password associated with your card, created by yourself and known only to you.


Net Banking


You can use your Net Banking account to pay for your SportsGEO.com order.

We accept payments for your orders through all National/ International Government and Private Banks.


EMI

EMI is one of the payment methods available on SportsGEO.com. It allows you to pay for your orders in easy monthly installments.


About EMI:


EMI as a payment method is only available for customers using credit cards issued by:

  • ICICI Bank
  • HDFC Bank
  • Citibank
  • SBI Card
  • Standard Chartered Bank
  • Kotak Mahindra Bank
  • Axis Bank
  • HSBC Bank


During the checkout phase, if your purchase is eligible for EMI and if you have a credit card from any of the eligible banks mentioned above, you will automatically see the EMI options for each of your eligible cards. 


Using EMI as a Payment Method:


To use EMI Payment:


  • On Select a payment method page, choose the bank and plan (3, 6, 9 or 12-month) of your choice and enter your credit card details.
  • Once the payment is authorized, your order will be processed and shipped.


Note: The minimum order value to avail the EMI payment option is ₹ 3,000.


For EMI payments, initially, customers will be charged the full amount on their credit card. This will later be converted to an EMI transaction by their bank. This normally takes 5-7 working days.


The following transactions can appear on the credit card bill depending on your billing cycle:

  • Debit entry of the entire product amount.
  • Credit entry of the entire product amount.
  • Debit entry of the EMI amount.


Sometimes, these entries may get split between two statements depending on the transaction date and the customer's billing date. Please contact your card-issuing bank in case 7 working days have elapsed since your purchase and it's not converted to EMI as yet.


Note: 

  1. Orders containing items from multiple sellers can be converted into EMI purchases as long as the total value of the order is above Rs. 3000.
  2. EMI purchases need to be made on a single credit card and cannot be split across multiple cards.
  3. EMI monthly schedules begin from the next card billing statement post the transaction date as determined by your bank.


Unavailability of EMI:


EMI option could be unavailable to you due to any of the following reasons.


  • You don't have a credit card from an eligible bank.
  • Your purchase is below the minimum eligibility value of Rs 3000.
  • Your bank has the discretion to either approve or reject an EMI offer on the basis of your eligibility for a loan. While shopping on SportsGEO, if you choose an EMI option, the bank instantaneously decides your eligibility for the loan and either communicates an approval or a rejection decision to SportsGEO.com. If rejected, the order will be cancelled on SportsGEO.com and you can place a new order using a different payment method. If you are not eligible for an EMI offer, you should approach your bank to understand why and what your alternative options to convert your purchase to an EMI are.

How Secure Is Information About Me?

  • We reveal only the last four digits of your credit card numbers when confirming an order. Of course, we transmit the entire credit card number to the appropriate credit card company during order processing.
  • We maintain physical, electronic and procedural safeguards in connection with the collection, storage and disclosure of personal information (including sensitive personal information). Our security procedures mean that we may occasionally request proof of identity before we disclose personal information to you.
  • It is important for you to protect against unauthorised access to your password and to your computer. Be sure to Sign out when you finish using a shared computer. 


Safe Online Shopping


Security is a priority at SportsGEO.com and we make every effort to ensure that our transaction process is safe and that your personal information is secure.


Do Not Share Personal Information


SportsGEO.com will never e-mail or call you to ask you to disclose or verify your SportsGEO.com password, credit card or bank-account number, or any other personal information. If you are contacted or receive an unsolicited e-mail which asks you any of this information, disregard the request and report the incident to SportsGEO.com for investigation.


Always Pay Via SportsGEO Marketplace


  • SportsGEO.com Marketplace is safe, secure and guaranteed. It provides you with a convenient method of payment and is the only authorised and recognised form of payment on SportsGEO.com. You should never pay for a Marketplace item outside of the SportsGEO.com site.
  • If you are contacted by a seller requesting payment via another method, you should regard it as fraudulent and must report to SportsGEO.com. Items paid for outside SportsGEO.com Marketplace are not eligible for protection under the SportsGEO.com Safe Buying Guarantee.


Check your Seller's Feedback


Always check a seller's feedback history before you order an item from them. This is the most important indicator of their overall quality and will give you information about the quality of their products, quality of their dispatch and delivery and their willingness to resolve transaction disputes.


Identify False (Spoof or Phishing) E-mails


  • If you receive an e-mail asking you for personal information or directing you to a site other than SportsGEO.com, or asking you to pay outside of SportsGEO Marketplace, it could be a "spoof" or "phishing" e-mail and should be considered as fraudulent.
  • If you receive an e-mail in a different format i.e. SportsGEO-security@hotmail.com, you can be sure that it's fraudulent.
  • Some phishing e-mails contain links to websites that contain the word "SportsGEO" somewhere in the URL but will take you to a completely different website. If you hover over the link you often can see the underlying URL which will be in a different format to those linked to within the SportsGEO sites.
  • If you click though on a phishing e-mail and are taken to a page looking like "Your Account" or anything that asks you to verify or change your personal details, you should consider it as fraudulent.


Report Phishing E-mails


  • E-mail spoofing@SportsGEO.com and attach the e-mail you suspect is fake. By attaching the e-mail we can more easily trace its origins.
  • If you cannot include the e-mail as an attachment, forward it to spoofing@SportsGEO.com and include as much of the header information as you can.


Choose a Strong Password


  • Use a different password on SportsGEO to what you use on other websites. If you need help remembering your password, write it down and keep it in your purse, wallet, or another secure location.
  • Use at least 8 characters.
  • Though it's not a requirement, adding numbers or special characters to your password will make it even stronger. For example, the password "life7!%" is a much stronger password than "life."
  • Avoid passwords that are easy to guess, such as "secret," "password," "letmein," "SportsGEO," or "123456."
  • Avoid using only a dictionary word, your name, e-mail address, or other personal information that can easily be obtained.
  • Passwords are case sensitive. For instance, "LIFE7!%" and "life2!%" are two different passwords. When choosing a password, remember the capitalisation you use, and make sure that the CAPS LOCK key on your keyboard isn't turned on.


Protect your Passwords


  • Keep your passwords private; anybody who knows your password may access your account.
  • Avoid using the same password for multiple online accounts.
  • Always Sign out when you complete an online session on a public computer.
  • Change your password periodically.


Protect Your System


Some phishing e-mails contain attachments and link to websites that try to install malicious software on your computer. Here are some ways you can help protect your system against these types of threats. 


  1. Install anti-virus or anti-malware software from a reputable company. Once it's installed, be sure to run a full scan of your computer regularly. You'll also want to run a full scan if you visit a site through a link in a phishing e-mail or open an unsolicited attachment. Please be aware that that there are many fake anti-malware products out there. Don't install one from a website that tells you your computer is infected, as these warnings may be fake. 
  2. Check for and install updates for all programs on your computer. Run Windows Update if you have a Windows computer or Software Update if you have a Mac. We also strongly recommend that you make sure Adobe Flash, Adobe Reader, and Java are all up to date on your computer.
  3. If you've typed a password on a malicious website, change it on the legitimate website immediately. Select strong passwords of eight characters or more that include a variety of letters, numbers, and symbols. 
  4. If you entered your credit card information on a malicious website or replied to an email with that information, immediately contact your credit card company. Many fake e-mail messages ask you to respond with your credit card number or click a link and type it there to "verify your identity." If you did so, your credit card number may have been stolen and we recommend that you contact your credit card company to report it and get a new card issued. Don't forget to update your card on SportsGEO.com afterwards.
  5. Never reply to unsolicited messages. Replying to phishing and spam messages only confirms to the sender that they have a valid e-mail address to send more spam and phishing to. If you want to unsubscribe from SportsGEO mailings, do so directly through our website instead of clicking a link in an e-mail.


Identifying spoof e-mails


From time to time you might receive e-mails purporting to come from SportsGEO.com which do not come from actual SportsGEO.com accounts; instead, they are falsified and attempt to convince you to reveal sensitive account information. These false e-mails, also called "spoof e-mails" or "phishing e-mails," look similar to real e-mail. Often these e-mails direct you to a false website that looks similar to an SportsGEO.com website, where you might be asked to give your account information and password.


Unfortunately, these false websites can steal your sensitive information; later, this information can be used without your knowledge to commit fraud.


To protect yourself from responding to these e-mails and revealing sensitive or private information, you can follow a few simple rules:


Know what SportsGEO.com won't ask for


SportsGEO.com will never ask you for the following information in an e-mail communication:

  • Your bank account information, credit card number, PIN number, or credit card security code (including "updates" to any of the above)
  • Your mother's maiden name or other information to identify you (such as your place of birth or your favourite pet's name)
  • Your SportsGEO.com password


Review grammatical or typographical errors


Be on the lookout for poor grammar or typographical errors. Many phishing e-mails are translated from other languages or are sent without being proof-read. As a result, these messages can contain bad grammar or typographical errors.


Check the Return Address


While phishers often send forged e-mail to make it look like it comes from SportsGEO.com or SportsGEO.com, you can frequently determine whether it's authentic by checking the return address. If the "from" line of the e-mail looks like "SportsGEO-security@hotmail.com" or "SportsGEO-payments@msn.com," or contains the name of another Internet Service Provider (ISP), you can be sure it is a fraudulent e-mail.

Most e-mail clients let you examine the source of the e-mail. Check the e-mail header information to see that the "received from," "reply to," and "return path" for the e-mail comes from. The method you use to check the header information varies depending upon the e-mail client you use.


Check the website address


Some phishers set up spoofed websites that contain the word "SportsGEO" somewhere in the URL. Genuine SportsGEO websites always end with ".SportsGEO.com", that is, "geoseller.SportsGEO.com" or "www.SportsGEO.com".


We never use a combination such as "security-SportsGEO.com" or "SportsGEO.com.biz".


Some phishing e-mails include a link that looks as though it will take you to your seller account, but it is really a shortened link to a completely different website. If you hover over the link in your e-mail client, you can sometimes see the underlying, false Web address, either as a popup or as information in the browser status bar.

When in doubt, please contact us.

Choose a Strong Password


To protect your password, it's important to change it periodically and keep your password private, since anybody who knows your password may access your account.


To choose a strong password:


Use a different password on SportsGEO from what you use on other sites. If you need help remembering your password, write it down and place it in your purse, wallet, or another secure location.


Use at least 8 characters. 


Avoid passwords that are easy to guess. These include passwords such as "secret," "password," "SportsGEO," or "123456." They also include things like a dictionary word, your name, e-mail address, or other personal information that can easily be obtained.


Tip: Though it's not a requirement, adding numbers or special characters to your password will make it even stronger. For example, the password "life7!%" is a much stronger password than "life".


Note: Passwords are case sensitive. For instance, "LIFE7!%" and "life7!%" are two different passwords. When choosing a password, remember the capitalization you use, and make sure that the CAPS LOCK key on your keyboard is not turned on.
