New style safer debit card to be tested in Spain

AS an experiment, Deutsche Bank and MasterCard are launching what they say is the first bank card in Spain to use motion code technology.

The Calma Deutsche Bank Card will allow the security code (shown by the CVC label on the reverse) to change automatically every four hours in order to increase security as it doesn’t allow thieves to clone or benefit by data theft on  online transactions

This card also offers insurance cover for theft or robbery to cover the value of any stolen purchases.
