Shop Safe - Protect Your Credit Card on Internet

It happens many a times when we are interested in purchasing a product or a service online, but not sure whether the site is fully secure enough to provide our credit card information to them.

Here is an excellent service from Bank Of America, that provide the solution to this problem. It's "Shop Safe".

We just create a virtual credit card, that is in-turn linked to our Bank Of America Credit Card and actual transaction will be processed using original credit card.

So,

Shop online as you would normally do.

Provide the virtual (shop safe) credit card number, security(cvc) code and expiry date to this shopping website.

And when the payment gateway processes the transaction, actual transaction will be processed on your original credit card but the shopping web site never knows that!!

I would say, Nothing can be secure than this.

You can enroll into this service with Bank Of America if you are using their Credit Cards, and

Create a Virtual Credit Card Number which is a similar 16-digit number,

Create a passcode for that

Set a Credit Limit

And an expiry date when do you want this VC to expire!!

Start Shop Safing!!! I apoligize, Start Safe Shopping.
