RE: FN-FORUM: Storing CC details?

If you want to give refunds, how about using something like www.protx.com
instead of storing the details on your own site?

Just a thought...

Hi Peter,

I have read something about this in the meantime. I absolutely agree with
you that there is no reason to store CC data.

Client is thinking about it only because they need to give credit card
refunds to their customers and card data are required by payment gateway.
This is however only few per cent of all orders and I will advise them to
rather call the customer and ask for credit card details or send a cheque
instead.

Thanks for the links as well!

Too much headache and if something goes wrong...

All the best
Jay

PS: I have been told that almost all other clients of the same payment
gateway store customers' credit card details!! We don't.
