It is safe to supply your credit card details to this site to pay for a purchase.

Think about it - it's most certainly safer than doing a transaction in a shop or restaurant. Here's why:

When you enter your card details, the communication between your browser and our server is encrypted using SSL. You can tell that this is the case by the little padlock displayed on the status bar of your browser on the page where you enter your credit card details. This means that it is virtually impossible for a third party to listen in when you submit the form. We use a certificate issued by Comodo for SSL encryption. No credit card number has ever been intercepted while in transit over SSL. Whereas when you give your credit card to pay for an item at the shop (or worse at a restaurant where the waitress disappears with it) who knows what sneaky system the employees of the shop have got to read your credit card details to use for their own benefit later on.

When you use your credit card to pay for something in a shop, they give you a slip that usually contains your name, your entire credit card number, and the expiry date of your card. Many people just throw these slips in the bin. Even if you dispose of them safely, the shop still keeps the counterfoil and you rely on them to keep your card details private. In a restaurant, most people are happy to have the waiter disappear with their card while the transaction is put through... These risks are much more significant than those that you face when using your card on this site.



Access to all information held in your account is password protected. It is essential that you keep your password secret so that no-one else can gain unauthorized access to this information. When you use your browser to view or update information relating to your account, the communication is encrypted using SSL to prevent any third parties from listening in. Even your shopping cart is not accessible without encryption.
