SECURE CREDIT CARD TRANSACTION PROCESSING

DME-Direct uses the payment gateway services of PayPal, the industry leader, for processing all payment information.

Our web site uses Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) encryption to transmit your sensitive credit card information from a secure web page to a secure application on our server. Once on our server, your credit card number is saved only long enough for us to process and approve the transaction. During the final stages of ordering online, you will see an unbroken key or locked padlock at the bottom of your browser window and https:// in the location window at the top of your browser. Both of these indicators signify that the page you are on is secured using SSL encryption technology to communicate with our secure web server. Because SSL encryption slows down a web site, it is only used in the final stage of ordering, before and after you enter your credit card information. You will not see these security indicators until you begin the checkout process and indicate that you prefer to order online using a credit card.
