Your CCV or sometimes called CVC number ( Credit Card Verification number ) is requested during your payment processing application form online as this number is only found on the physical card, not any receipts or imprints from manual 'click clack' Estee Lauderhines.

Using Afterpay you can pay for your order over 4 equal fortnightly instalments. There's no interest or added fees*. Payment will be automatically taken from your debit or credit card in four equal payments each fortnight, and you will receive your order immediately. When using a promo code this must be applied to the order before continuing to the next step.
