Internet shopping offers consumers significant benefits including the convenience of shopping when they like, having goods delivered and saving time and money. Public awareness of how to shop online safely is growing all the time. The online shopping environment itself is improving rapidly thanks to the strenuous efforts of merchants and facilitators throughout the world who now have several years' experience under their belts. A lack of confidence in online stores remains the primary factor in stopping consumer trading and buying from online retailers like Polybags Direct. This is hardly surprising given that shopping online is relatively new to so many people. For e-commerce to work well, all participating parties - online stores, payment facilitators, shippers and consumers - must play their part in a responsible manner.

How secure Internet payment works

Encryption - keeping card details safe. This is the process by which card details are 'scrambled' for transmission over the Internet, to ensure that they cannot be intercepted. Encryption is achieved through a technology called Secure Sockets Layer (SSL). You will know when a site is protected by SSL, a padlock icon appears at the bottom right of your screen and the beginning of the site's web address changes from 'http' to 'https'. If neither of these items appear on a website then you cannot transact with the site securely and you should not submit any confidential personal information to that site. When entering your details, for your security, we do not see, store or have access to your card details. The transaction is processed by PayPal in a secure environment. The only thing passed onto ourselves is the funds. PayPal provides these services to both large and small retailers alike, so that you can enjoy the same level of security whether you are shopping from an established brand or a smaller operation.
