From today (29.03.2012) Spotlight has implemented Verified by Visa and Mastercard SecureCode on all ticket purchases.
This is an extra level of authentication which is required by your bank at the moment of purchase - usually a secret password, a pin number, an sms to your mobile with a one-time code, etc.
This gives you, the customer, and us, the merchant, a much higher level of security on Credit Card payments, as it guarantees the identity of the person making the purchase.
All known ticket websites use this system.
Along with this improvement to our system, we have also certified our webserver as PCI compliant. This is VISA's mandatory security certification for all websites involved in Credit Card payments. (We never actually store Credit Card details, but simply encrypt them and pass them to the Bank for authorization and payment).
See the VISA website for more info or the Mastercard website
