Is It Safe to Use My Credit Card Online?
The
simple answer is Yes, providing you are careful who you give
it to. If you follow our simple guidelines and shop at sites
that have a secure server (remember the padlock), even Visa and
Mastercard are telling their card holders that online shopping
is safe. To read more about what Visa and Mastercard have to
say on the
matter, visit their websites at:

Our
reccommendation is to always use a credit card when buying online.
The problem with other payment methods (e.g. a debit card) is
that you don't have the same level of protection as you do with
a credit card. With a credit card there is always something you
can do if a problem arises. You can call your bank, tell them
the problem and they will reverse the charge back to the merchant.
Other methods don't provide this level of security.
