Choosing A Secured Online Payment Service

Ways Of Choosing A Secured Online Payment Service

In my previous article, I have talked about some of the reasons why many people embrace online payment platforms. In this article, I want to discuss ways of choosing a secured online payment service. Follow me as we are going to look at that together in this article. Here are some of the things you have to look out for when you are making online payments generally.

Make sure that the payment service is legitimate and registered.
Check the reviews of these services at websites such as epinions.com or bizrate.com
Look at the payment service’s website for a seal of approval from TRUSTe, VeriSign, or Better Business Bureau Online (BBBOnline).
Ensure that the website uses encryption technology to help protect your information.

SSL and Padlock Symbol

Secure Socket Layer (SSL) is the standard security technology for creating an encrypted link between a web server and a browser. The link ensures that all information transmitted between the web server and the browser is secured.

The padlock symbol is an indicator that the session is protected by SSL encryption.

What the SSL Shows…

The domain name of the company
Details of the certification company that issued the SSL
Name and Address of the company
The expiration date of the SSL
