According to CNN, the prevalent opinion is that on-line credit card use is actually no riskier for consumers than traditional low-tech transactions. You should feel as safe as you would using a credit card in a store or restaurant. In addition, we encrypt your password using SHA-1 (Secure Hash Algorithm) cryptographic hash algorithm. This means that only you and you alone know your password. Paxar-Europe.com staff do not know your password.

All payment card information sent to NetBanx and from NetBanx is encrypted. Firewalls within the NetBanx system serve to protect information from hackers. NetBanx has developed from processes established over five years as a security system specifically for the Internet environment.

3. How is my credit card transaction processed? |
|
|
NetBanx checks the format of the card number and makes further security checks to validate the authenticity of the cardholder information. NetBanx then processes transactions by requesting authorisation from the appropriate bank and finally obtains confirmation that the bank has cleared the payment. The NetBanx system generates an email to you to confirm transaction.
