You may be wondering why the padlock icon is not displayed when you buy items on our web site. This is because Mad About Silver.co.uk uses the Actinic Catalog Ecommerce software solution. Actinic uses it's own proven, industry standard, 128-bit encryption to safely encrypt credit card information. This means that only you, the purchaser and us, the vendor, can read credit card information. We then secureley process your credit card numbers via PDQ just like any telephone or over the counter purchase.
Barclays Bank, HSBC and the Royal Bank of Scotland approve Actinic software for their merchants to use.
