The order amount will be deposited on your card as a payment reservation until your order has either been sent (then the amount will be booked) or cancelled (then the payment reservation will be cancelled).
New verification process for credit card payments
Since the start of 2021, new regulations around bank account security came into effect as part of the EU Payment Services Directive (PSD2).
These new measures were implemented to make your online payments even more secure.
The PSD2 protects your credit card details with a process called 2-factor authentication, which requires that you verify your identity to prove that you, not someone else, is using your credit card. With the new, added security of PSD2 regulations, if someone stole your phone, computer or credit card, they will not be able to make an online payment. We invite you to find further details about the PSD2 on ecb.europa.eu.
As of January 2021, banks are required to implement 2-factor authentication for online payments above a certain order value. If your are experiencing any troubles with credit card payments, we recommend you check with your bank whether your card is already registered for 2-factor authentication. If you’re not yet registered for 2-factor authentication, your bank should instruct you on how to do so. In the meantime, to avoid encountering payment issues for your Ennisance orders, we recommend you opt for an alternative payment method, since this verification method only applies to credit cards. Please find a list of our alternative payment methods below.
Payments by Visa or Mastercard
The system will recognize whether or not the credit card is registered on the 3-D security programs Verified by Visa or Mastercard SecureCode
These are security systems that have been developed to ensure that the registered card holder and the registered online retailer are involved in the transaction. If you are a member of the 3-D Secure Program, a pop-up window will appear on your screen asking you to enter your password when making a purchase online. This window is linked to your bank and requires you to enter your SecureCode (a password that you have previously selected). Transactions can only be made by entering the correct password.
If your credit card is not registered with any of these programs, the payment can be made without further authentication. For more information about the credit card security systems, please see:

Payment by American Express
Payment by Amex is not possible at Ennisance.
The following applies for all payments by credit card: refunds from returns will always be charged back on to the credit card that the original order was paid for with.
