About FGB Secure (8)

What is the FGB Secure app?
FGB Secure is a rebranded version of the CVVKey app.
Will I lose access if I don't switch to FGB Secure?
Switching to FGB Secure is mandatory. Once a customer has downloaded FGB Secure and their cards are enrolled, they should be advised to uninstall the CVVKey app.
Do I have to register my cards again in the new app?
No. All cards currently registered in the CVVKey app will be available in the FGB Secure app after successful authentication.
Why FGB Secure?

Will the dynamic CVV process change?
No, it works the same way as in CVVKey.
Will there be a time when CVVKey is discontinued?
