Viewing your card's full number, expiry, and CVV

Your full card number, expiry date, and CVV aren't stored in a way Paysavo displays repeatedly — each time you reveal them, a short-lived one-time key is issued so only you, right now, can see them.

## Direct answer
When you view your card in the app, the general card details you see (status, masked info, etc.) never include your full card number or CVV — those are stripped out before that information ever reaches the app. To see your full card number and security code, Paysavo uses a separate, dedicated secure reveal step rather than displaying them alongside your everyday card details.

## How it works
- The standard card-details lookup explicitly removes the full card number (PAN) and CVV from whatever the card processor returns, as a safety measure, before it's shown anywhere (app/Services/VirtualCardService.php).
- To actually view your full card number and CVV, Paysavo supports a one-time secure reveal: your device requests a short-lived, single-use key (typically valid for a few minutes) that's used specifically to unlock that sensitive view, and it only works for a card that's confirmed active and confirmed to belong to your account.
- This separation exists so that your sensitive card credentials are never mixed into general card data, logs, or lists.

## Still need help?
If you're unable to reveal your full card number/CVV through the app, or the reveal option isn't available, contact Paysavo support.
