CVV is printed on the same side as the CC these days. It’s literally as if your CC was 19 numbers long instead of 16. If you still have a card where it’s printed on the back then yeah, it’s sort of a “I have physical access to the card to flip it” factor of authentication.

Two factor how? Some would argue a CVV is a second factor, which is actually used in the US.
(I don’t ask to be combative but to clarify the differences. I would not call a CVV true two factor)
My phone if it isn’t a physical purchase where the chip on the card is used
So true two factor then. Sounds too expensive for American corpos to implement, then…
