A payment gateway is the service that automates the payment transaction between the shopper and merchant, the payment gateway we use is Sage Pay.

Sage Pay collect card details via a 128-bit SSL secured payment page. They details they request are card number, expiry dates, cardholder name and address and security code value. This information is then further encrypted to be held against the transaction details on their system before being sent to the UK acquiring banks for authorisation (over secure, offline channels). Sage Pay don't store the security code (in line with Visa requirements) but they do store the card number (only in an encrypted format that none of their staff have access to).

Sage Pay secure your card details within their database using AES-256, the keys for which are held on tamper-proof hardware security modules which are unavailable to Sage Pay staff.

Sage Pays systems have been approved and is regularly audited by Visa and Mastercard as one of the most secure sites in the UK. Their systems are independently audited by the UK acquiring banks and are compliant with the card schemes themselves (both Visa and Mastercard) under their Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard which ensures they meet very strict security guidelines.
