A cardholder's ZIP code is an identity qualifier for the credit card transaction process. ZIP codes may help to ensure that your transaction is completed securely. Without entering a valid one, your credit card could be rejected.

ZIP code. You may be asked for it when you pay with a credit card at a store's cash register. Beware — the purpose may be to figure out your address so you can be put on a mailing list and bombarded with junk mail or nuisance calls.

Your billing zip code is a 5-digit code associated with your debit card. It is used as a security code. If you lost or forgot your zip code, check your billing statement or call your bank.

ZIP Codes are not just numbers that identify a location. They have become social identifiers – giving information on the demographics of the people of a certain region. Companies use Zip Codes as important data structures that give them a visual representation of their audience.

In Canada, the equivalent is called a postal code. Both are used to identify and group addresses by geographical area to sort and deliver mail. But postal codes are used for more than just mailing letters.

Alone, your ZIP code might not be of much value all by itself, but criminals will take that information and post it on underground sites where they buy, sell and trade bunches of personal information. From those sites, criminals can purchase enough of your personal information to use it for fraud.

First introduced in 1963, ZIP Code is a trademark of the USPS created to coordinate mail handling and delivery.

Stores want your ZIP code because, combined with your name from your credit card, they can use it to find out other information about you from commercial databases, like your full mailing address. They may even sell the information to data brokers, who sell it to other marketers.
