Why are only Visa and MasterCard Credit Card types accepted? |

Dinners, American express and other credit card types are currently not accepted for online payments. The high costs associated with these credit card types prevent us from including them in the online service offering. |

How secure is the Credit Card transaction online? |
|
When you enter your name, credit card number, expiry date and CVV number on Virtual Post Office Service, it is encrypted as a secret code (Secure Socket Layers) for its virtual journey between Virtual Post Office Service and the acquiring bank. This secret encryption is set in motion by using the latest 128 Bit SSL encryption technology. At the time of placing the order, the transaction details are presented to the bank and an authorisation is obtained for the amount. Payment is only collected once the payment has been authorised. |
