To All,

    As some of you know, I am starting a part selling business, and I have
the ability to process real time credit card transactions. I also have a log
in capability, so you don't have to re-enter shipping information  One of
the options I have is to store credit card numbers, and I am not sure if I
want to do that or not. What are people's impressions of this, I have had no
problems, and I want to be sure I do what most people are comfortable with.
You can either respond personally or to LUGNET, and input is appreciated.
Thanks!

Scott S.

(...) In favor if there is some assurance you did it right. It's a huge convenience. However I am just as happy to X/Paypal which requires no storage on your site. (I am wondering if it is more convenient for the buyer to have Paypal generate a (...) (24 years ago, 6-Jun-00, to lugnet.market.theory)
