Mastercard 3D Secure 2.0 is an additional layer of authentication for online card transactions that aims to reduce fraud and enhance security. Not all transactions or purchases will require 3D Secure authentication; it depends on the merchant and/or type of purchase. 

3D Secure may require a two-factor authentication to protect you from unauthorized or fraudulent transactions. The two-factor authentication will ask if you would like a passcode sent to your email or mobile phone and have you enter in the passcode. If you are able to authenticate your purchase using this method, the charge will go through. Otherwise, the transaction will be declined.

A 3D Secure authentication error may be due to a mistyped card number or an incorrect expiration date. You may need to reattempt the purchase to ensure all information needed to complete the transaction is correct. Also, if no authentication message was received, please double check that your mobile phone number and email address is correct on file with First Hawaiian Bank.

All of our First Hawaiian Bank consumer and small business debit and credit cardholders are automatically enrolled in Mastercard 3D Secure 2.0 as a security measure for our customers. There is no option to opt out. 

At this time, 3D Secure 2.0 is not enabled for customers with a Commercial or Small Business roll up credit card.

3D Secure 2.0 only monitors for transactions in which your physical card is not present.  When you use your physical card in person, 3D Secure 2.0 authentication is not triggered.

If you have questions about Mastercard 3D Secure, please call (808) 847-4444.
