The Card Security Code is a security feature for credit cards and gives a increased protection for your transaction. The Card Security Code is printed on your credit card but not stored anywhere else. The only way to know the correct number for your credit card is to physically have possession of the card itself.
Visa, MasterCard and Diners Club
This number is printed on your MasterCard, Visa and Diners Club in the signature area of the back of the card. (it is the last 3 digits after the credit card number). If you cannot read your card security code, please contact the issuing creditor.
American Express
American Express cards have a 4-digit code printed on the front side of the card above the number (also referred to as the CID number). It is not embossed like the card number but printed flat.
