CVN is an anti-fraud security feature to help
verify that you are in possession of your credit card.
For Visa/Mastercard/Diners, the three-digit CVN number is
printed on the signature panel on the back of the card immediately
after the card's account number.
For American Express, the four-digit CVN number is printed
on the front of the card above the card account number.
