However, there are extra measures that are offered to the clients which are not found on any traditional credit card machine.
The credit card processing on your iPhone includes address verification which matches your home address to the address where your credit card is registered. It also requires the client to enter the Service, ABS and the CVV2 which is the card’ security code found at the back of the card. Once all of the information are verified, the card number is then transmitted to the iPhone to the payment gateway through a secure SSL transmission.
