Visa Secure and Visa Account Updater

Visa Secure
Visa Secure (formerly Verified by Visa) simply means you get access to an added layer of protection, keeping your money safer while you are shopping online. When making a purchase from a merchant participating in Visa Secure, you may be guided through an extra step to confirm your identity. No need to do anything on your part other than follow the prompts. Visa Secure does the work to ensure it’s an authorized transaction.

Visa Account Updater
Visa Account Updater (VAU) automatically sends cardholder data to participant merchants when the card information is updated. It offers a seamless account update process without the need for direct action on your part. For example, if your phone bill automatically charges to your credit card every month, without the VAU, you would need to update your card info yourself in the event of a new card. With VAU, Visa will send the updated card info to that merchant for you. 

If you do not wish to have your card information automatically sent to participant merchants in the event of a new card, you can opt out by calling 800.347.9222.

Please note: you must opt out before your old card has expired, or within 24 hours of ordering a new card when the old card is lost or stolen.

Visa has developed a program that helps confirm your identity when you make an online purchase. This service helps make shopping online more secure by protecting against unauthorized use of your Visa card. There’s no need to download anything, install software, or register for an account. During an online purchase from your desktop, mobile or other digital device, you may be guided through an extra check to verify your identity. This helps us ensure you’re you and better protects you from fraud.

This service automatically works at checkout at participating merchants. There is no need to download anything, install software or register for your account to get this added layer of protection. When using this service, you may occasionally be prompted at checkout to verify your identity, but this is to ensure you’re you and protect you from fraud.

There is no cost to you for this service! Solarity covers the cost on your behalf to ensure you have this added protection and peace of mind.

Protect your digital life with better password practices

Keep your accounts safe with a few simple password habits. Learn how to strengthen your passwords and protect your information online.

Keep your passwords secure

At Solarity, your financial safety is our priority. One of the most effective ways to protect your accounts is to use strong, secure passwords. Here is a quick guide to help you stay safe online.

Why secure passwords matter

A recent leak exposed more than 183 million email passwords, including millions connected to major email providers. Incidents like this show how important it is to keep your login information protected. If someone gets access to a password you use elsewhere, they may try it on your financial accounts too.

You can read more about the leak here: https://nypost.com/2025/10/27/business/183m-email-passwords-exposed-in-data-leak-including-millions-of-gmail-accounts-heres-how-to-check-if-yours-is-safe/

Tips for stronger password protection

1. Create unique passwords for every account
Do not reuse the same password across different sites. If one account is compromised, others can quickly become vulnerable.

2. Make passwords long and complex
Use at least 12 characters and include a mix of letters, numbers and symbols. Avoid personal details that are easy to guess.

3. Try using a passphrase
Passphrases are easier to remember and harder to crack. For example, choose a short sentence with a mix of words and numbers.

4. Turn on Two Factor Authentication (2FA)
2FA provides an extra layer of security by requiring a second form of verification when you sign in.

5. Use a password manager
Password managers help create and store secure passwords so you do not need to remember them all.

6. Update passwords regularly
If you hear about a security breach or notice suspicious activity, update your password right away.

What you can do today

  • Turn on 2FA for your Solarity digital banking and email accounts

  • Replace weak or repeated passwords with stronger ones

  • Consider using a password manager to stay organized and secure

Your security matters

Strong password habits help protect your financial accounts and personal information. Solarity is committed to your security, and these simple steps can make a big difference. To learn more about staying safe from scams and fraud, visit our Fraud Resource Center.
