This guide explains what SWIFT, CVC, and IBAN codes mean and why they matter for secure payments.
What is a SWIFT code
A SWIFT code is a standard format of a Business Identifier Code.
It uniquely identifies banks worldwide and is used for international money transfers.
You can usually find it on your online banking portal or bank statement.
If you’re unsure, please contact your bank for assistance.
Example SWIFT Code (UK Bank)
The standard format is 8 or 11 characters: BARCGB22XXX
Breakdown:
BARC – Bank code (Barclays)
GB – Country code (United Kingdom)
22 – Location code
XXX – Branch code (optional)
Important: This information is required when withdrawing funds via Telegraphic Transfer.
Tip: Always double-check your SWIFT code with your bank to avoid delays.
What is an IBAN number?
An IBAN (International Bank Account Number) helps identify bank accounts across borders.
An IBAN is used to identify bank accounts internationally.
It ensures your funds reach the correct account during cross-border transfers.
IBAN format
Up to 34 alphanumeric characters.
Begins with a two-letter country code, followed by numbers and letters that identify your bank and account.
When do I need an IBAN?
If you withdraw via Telegraphic Transfer, you’ll need your IBAN.
You can usually find it on your online banking portal or paper statement.
If you’re unsure, contact your bank for assistance.
Important: Always double-check your IBAN before submitting it to avoid delays.
Tip: Save your IBAN securely for future withdrawals.
What is a CVC number?
The CSC number adds an extra layer of security when making deposits with your card.
The CSC number is the last 3 digits on the signature panel on the back of your card.
You’ll need to enter this number whenever you make a deposit into your BetVictor account.
Why do I need to enter it every time?
Your card number is saved when you make a deposit, but the CSC number must be entered manually each time for added security.
This helps protect your account from unauthorised transactions.
Other names for CVC
The CSC number can also be referred to as:
CSC
CVN
CV2
CVV2
Important: Never share your CSC number with anyone.
Tip: If you can’t find the CSC, check the back of your card near the signature strip.
