No! For cards issued under MasterCard, VISA and American Express, the card information is processed directly by the bank’s systems, via Avangate servers, all transaction data flow being secured using the latest technology available. For cards issued under other organizations, this information is encrypted using proprietary encryption algorithms, and stored on environments without any online or remote access. Information is kept only for the time needed in case the cardholder requests a chargeback.
