In the following is given some information about secure payment.

We offer to you an ecommerce-equal creditcard payment method. In general you would enter your creditcard data into a form and send it to us via fax or mail. We would receive this form and use the data to get the fees. Now you need not to print, fill and send a form, instead you simple can register in one step online

  • You fill and send the registration form and then the creditcard data form without risk
  • All data will be encrypted and transfered via https (a ssl connection).
  • We save the data

You can use this method with almost all web browser (Netscape, IE, Konqueror). A secure method is established if you see https://... in the address-field of your web browser and the lock (a small lock symbol anywere in the web browser) is closed. Netscape and IE will inform you with a dialog that a secure connection will be established.

For a ssl connection a certificate is used - this certificate identifies the webpage and can be received paying some money to a certification agency. We didn't certificate this webpage, so you will receive a warning from your browser. But the connection is nevertheless still encrypted.

Some information from Eurocard international
SSL is a protocol that encrypts data; however, from a card industry perspective, SSL only provides a partial security solution. It cannot provide assurance to the cardholder that the merchant is authorised to accept a card brand, or protect the payment data on the merchant server.
