Secure Payments
Key Security Features:
SSL Certificates:
All Shopify stores include an automatic SSL certificate, which encrypts data between your customer's browser and your store, ensuring secure communication.
PCI Compliance:
Shopify is PCI compliant, which means all credit card transactions are processed and stored in a secure environment that adheres to industry standards for protecting cardholder data.
Shopify Payments:
By using Shopify Payments, you get access to advanced security features, including:
- Fraud Analysis: Machine-learning algorithms screen transactions for suspicious activity.
- 3D Secure Checkout: An additional verification step is added to online card transactions, requiring customers to authenticate themselves with their bank before completing a purchase, which shifts liability for fraudulent chargebacks to the card issuer.
Data Encryption:
Sensitive payment data is encrypted, meaning it is scrambled and unreadable to unauthorized parties.
Secure Checkout:
The standard Shopify checkout process is designed to be secure, allowing customers to enter their shipping and payment information safely and review store policies.
