Secure Shop using MasterCard SecureCode and Verified by Visa

Our online store now supports the latest systems to authenticate credit and debit card holder's identity.
As you pass through our checkout, the system communicates with your bank or card provider.
Depending on the type of card being used, your bank or card service provider may request details to establish your identity and you may be prompted to create a secret pass code.
If you've previously activated your card, you will be asked to enter your secret pass code. If you haven't activated your card, then it should only take you about a minute to do so.
Your secret code will then work in the same way as your PIN at a high street store.
From now on, use your code every time you shop online with participating stores.
It's important to make sure that you enter the information correctly to avoid your bank canceling the payment transaction. Please remember your code and keep it secret to yourself - just like your card PIN code.

Secure online shopping at Jaycotts Powered by 'PROTX'
At Jaycotts, we take internet security very seriously and make buying online just as safe as high street shopping, and much safer than snail mail or telephone ordering.

Your browser will go into secure mode as soon as you access the 'Card Payment Page' i.e. before you enter any payment card details.
When you reach the part of our secure checkout that requests your payment details, look for the small padlock (at the top or bottom of your screen) this confirms that you are now on our secure PROTX server, and your browser has gone into secure mode.

PROTX specialize in web security and are recommended worldwide by major banks and credit card companies as a secure gateway for handling internet payment details.

This gateway will automatically communicate with your bank or card provider to verify details. This process is usually done in a matter of seconds and acts as an additional security measure against stolen card details and identity theft.
It is therefore important to check that: cardholder's name address and card details are correctly entered onto our system to ensure card payments are duly authorized by your bank.

'Secure Mode' ensures that all of your details are encrypted to help keep them secure. Encryption creates billions of code combinations to protect each transaction made on our site, so your card details cannot be viewed by anyone else using the Internet.
In addition, our site supports 128 bit encryption and therefore keeps your details as safe as possible at all times.

Your card details are placed via Secure Socket Layer (SSL) to prevent you from inadvertently revealing personal information using an insecure connection. New security checks like the card signature code (that's the little line of numbers on the back of your card - just by your signature) have been introduced to further protect your credit card details online.

No credit or debit card details are stored once your order has been processed.

We recommend that you always close down your Internet browser when you have completed online shopping, so as to delete temporary Internet cookies from any sites that you may have visited.
Cookies are used on all sites that run an online shopping system; they are used on our site only to keep track of the items you have placed into your online basket.
Your bank, PROTX, Jaycotts, other stores and orgonizations will never send genuine emails requesting card or personal account details and passwords or pin numbers. Should you receive such a request you must ignore it.
