Safety is present in every step we take
At Moneytrans, your peace of mind comes first. All of our security measures are designed to protect you, your data and your money. Whether it is in the selection of our partners or in the use of cutting-edge tools in the fight against fraud, we have everything under control!
We check your identity
Our system combines the best of AI and human expertise to ensure your identity wherever you are and with the smoothest possible experience.
To protect you against any type of fraud or identity theft, we make sure that the person who registers with your details is really you. This is why, before making your first money transfer or opening your Smile account, we ask you for a government-issued ID featuring your photo and proof of address. Our customer service department will validate the information.
Extra secure transactions
We use two-factor authentication to protect your account and transactions. That means you – and only you – can get to your money.
Stay safe with 3D Secure, as, apart from your PIN-code, you will have to enter a one-time password sent via SMS at checkout to protect you from falling victim to card fraud.
We will send you a confirmation code every time you make an online purchase, send money or perform any other transaction with your account.
If you make your transactions in one of our authorized agencies, you will also need to provide your agent with this code.
A sophisticated and efficient anti-fraud system
Our system uses machine learning technology developed to monitor transactions, identify and intercept suspicious activity to minimize the impact of cyber-attacks.This system is controlled by a team of data analysis experts who monitor all your transactions in real time.
We also run regular vulnerability scans and use independent auditors for internal and external penetration tests and other security scans.
Be sure that in the event of an anomaly detected, we will automatically block your card to protect your money while relaying the information to you on the spot.
Block your card instantly
If your Mastercard debit card is lost or stolen, you can block it instantly from the application with a single click to make sure no one can use it.

You will need to click on "Activate" and enter the code that you will receive by SMS. You will also need to download the Google Authenticator application, which will give you a code that you will need to enter every time you log in to our website.

You can choose the "block my card temporarily" option to unblock it whenever you want, or the "block my card permanently" option and request a new one via the "replacement card" option. You can also request a new card by calling our customer service, as well as if you wish to change your personal details, address or telephone number.
What additional security measures does Moneytrans apply to my online purchases?
