Online Credit Card Use On The Up
By Peter J Kenny
Internet commerce and shopping online have become extremely popular in recent years. Companies such as Amazon have revolutionised the way we buy books and CD’s. Also, booking travel arrangements such as airplane tickets, car rentals, hotels and other accommodation is no increasingly carried out online, by customers themselves, who are thus avoiding the costs of going through a travel agent or other middle man, and keep the savings for themselves. This area has been augmented by the growth in low cost airlines and the increasing popularity of taking short trips abroad more frequently.

As well as these purchases, more and more services are becoming available online, from online banking, financial services, applying for loans and mortgages, and a whole host of online business dealings, have made the internet probably far more important than the high street for many shopping needs.

And this trend is only set to increase. Already stores like Tesco and Asda offer online shopping services, where you select the items you want to purchase, add them to your electronic shopping basket, pay for them online, and then have them delivered to your door. The growth of online retailing is seeping into every area of the market and you can now even rent videos online.

And what, you may be asking yourself, is the most popular form of online payment? Well, despite the huge growth in popularity of debit cards, it is still credit cards that are the most important means of paying for things online. Debit cards will generally only be available from companies that operate in your own country,

which means if you want to buy from a company that operates outside of the UK. Then you will not be able to use your debit card and will have to use a credit card. And since, taking advantage of suppliers from all over the world is what the internet is all about, you will not wish to be limiting yourself to UK sellers by relying on a debit card.

Almost all internet website that are selling something will be accepting credit card payments. However, this is becoming more flexible and accessible through the use of such payment intermediaries as pay pal and egold.

A new credit card is being brought out in the near future that you will be able to use over the internet using your unique personal identification number (PIN) the number is entered into a keypad supplied by the credit card company. The next step to make online shopping much easier and safer.

A word of caution however, if you are shopping using your credit card online. Beware of identity theft, which is a growing problem. Only ever do business with a company that you have heard of before and know you can trust and never give out your credit card details unless it is on a secure website.

Identity theft can easily be avoided. Always destroy unwanted credit card statements. Whenever you stop using a credit card you should cancel it in writing immediately. If you decide to just leave an old credit card stored in your home, you leave yourself open to credit card fraud. Be aware!
