Tips Of Securely Doing Online Payment

Hi, friends welcome to our new post. We would teach you other good methods by which you can do your online payment safely. Friends, in the previous post, we learned many useful security tips such as using trusted sites, installation of antivirus, removal of card etc. So, you must be wondering - what is now left to cover!!! Still, I am not secure with previous tips! 

Oh, just wait and stop thinking too much! Our previous methods are best practices which would definitely give you 

peace of mind. But many of you must be definitely willing to learn more tricks. After all, extra knowledge never 

harms anyone. Knowledge only benefits us.

So, for those readers, we are going to list more tips. Such tips help you to pay using online gateway without worrying. 

CVV Number

Hey friends, we tell you not to save your card details at all in any payment gateway. Most of us prefer to save for instant payment next time. If you use a trusted payment gateway, for example Paytm, it would ask for your CVV number before the payment. It is the 3 digit card verification value present on the credit or debit card. If you use American Express Credit or Debit card, it will have 4 digits. You would find a white signature strip on the back of your debit card or credit card. CVV number is at the right side of that strip. We tell you not to reveal it. If you take your card outside, we tell you to memorize the number and erase it from the card by scratching. 

This precaution prevents the use of your card in a suspicious manner.

Delete History Of Your Browser:

Hey friends, this is an excellent step for prevention of card detail theft, especially if you use a public computer. Though, we suggest you not to use a public computer for payment by credit or debit card. But, if you have made this mistake, delete the browser history. This deletes the transaction details. 

• Find CLEAR RECENT HISTORY located on top of the browser. 
• Then, select EVERYTHING to clear. Check all the boxes which show the details of your history. 
• Then click CLEAR NOW. 
• You can also use the shortcut key 
• CTLR+SHIFT+DELETE for clearing history.

Use Virtual Keyboard For Filling Out Card Details

Again, this method protects from malware programmes which may be installed on the PC. The malware program captures the details, you input through the hardware keyboard. Virtual keyboard avoids this problem because most of the malware programs are not able to track it. Use it on your Personal Computer and Public Computer. After that, delete browser history by the above-mentioned method. 

Avoid Doing Payment On Public Computer

Friends, this is a good security practice. Do not trust Public computers. After all, these are not controlled by you. Who knows what type of software is installed on them? Maybe someone with malicious intent has installed Malware. The malware may capture all your logins and card details and send it to that person. So, try to avoid it at all costs. Instead, do payment from your own personal computer. Also, if you have a mobile, you can download the payment app and use it. This is more secure than relying on an untrusted public computer. Download app from trusted sites such as GOOGLE PLAY.

Do Not Use Open Wifi

Open Wifi leaves you vulnerable to hackers. They do not have the same protection level as trusted wifi. So, do not use it for payment either on your mobile or on your computer.
