How to Find the CVV on Your Andhra Bank Debit Card
Locating the CVV/CVC on an Andhra Bank (Now Union Bank) Debit Card
Note: Andhra Bank merged into Union Bank of India effective April 1, 2020. Cards issued after merger carry Union Bank branding; older Andhra Bank cards remain valid until expiry.
Finding the CVV (3-Digit Security Code)
- Turn the card over to the back side.
- Locate the signature panel (white strip with "Authorized Signature" or similar).
- Look at the right end of the signature panel.
- You'll see a 3-digit number printed (not embossed) – this is the CVV (Card Verification Value) / CVC (Card Verification Code).
Example: If the signature panel shows 1234 5678 9012 3456 789, the CVV is 789.
Important Security Notes
- Never share CVV – not with bank, merchants, family, anyone.
- CVV ≠ PIN – PIN is for ATM/pos; CVV for online/phone.
- Memorize or secure – don't write on card.
- Virtual cards (Union Bank app) have separate CVVs.
- If compromised: Block card immediately via app, IVR (1800 22 00 55), or branch.
Card Features (Post-Merger)
- RuPay / Visa / Mastercard variants.
- Contactless (tap-to-pay) on newer cards.
- EMV chip + magnetic stripe.
- Expiry: MM/YY on front.
