Secure Transactions

We have made every effort to ensure that our site is completely secure. We believe secure transactions should be a priority when shopping on the Internet. Our online transactions system is built using SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) - the encryption technology used for secure Internet commerce transactions. This technology scrambles your information so that only babyworld can read your order details.

 

How Secure Is Payment?

Your credit card security is our highest priority and we take the security of your online transactions very seriously indeed. Thanks to our advanced encryption technology (secure sockets layer or SSL) your online orders are safe. This technology scrambles your information so that only babyworld can read your order details.

Babyworld offers a number of payment methods including SagePay, Paypal, pay by phone or you can even send us a cheque. All these systems are secure but the most secure method of payment is to use our online system. We use secure servers and also incorporate a system (T3M) which provides active credit card fraud screening services. We want you to be comfortable shopping online so if you have any questions please do not hesitate to contact us.

Babyworld uses the payment service VSP from SagePay. SagePay are part of the Sage Group and an approved payment solutions provider for Lloyds TSB Cardnet, Barclays Merchant Services, HSBC, American Express, Halifax, and Bank of Scotland. The VeriSecure Payment system (VSP) is a secure solution that provides an environment for verifying payment card details across the internet. It is secure and reliable, with real time 24 hour transaction processing. VSP has sophisticated security measures, which incorporate digital signatures for validation purposes.

For your safety, customer details are never sent to the merchant - they go via the VSP - safeguarding customer details from potential hackers. Furthermore, unlike the majority of online Payment Service Providers, who receive transaction details through hidden fields sent via the customers browser (which could be tampered with or spoofed), VSP Server talks directly to babyworld's web server over a 128-bit encrypted secure channel, exchanging digitally signed messages to register the transaction and notify babyworld directly of the authorisation results.

3D Secure

Babyworld incorporates the 3D secure system from Visa and Mastercard which requires the user to create and use a password for your credit or debit card when using it to place an order online. In essence the system is like chip and pin for the web and ensures that only you can use your credit card to place orders online.
