Is my transaction information secure?

  • For your safety and security, all credit card purchases now require Verified by Visa and MasterCard Secure-code. These services provide a secure means to verify the cardholder by entering a password set up by the user (see below). Our website connects you directly with your credit card company as we do not store any credit card data on our website. The credit card company can usually verify your Verified by Visa and MasterCard Secure-code password within a few minutes.

    If you are having trouble with your credit card, it may be due to this security feature not being yet activated on your credit card (orders that have failed this process may be classed in the notification as “Payment Review”)

    The password for these services is very simple to set up, just call the 1-800 number on the back of your credit card and ask the agent to help you set up your password, or follow the links below to set this up online:
