"NetSecure has hit the mark with SmartSwipe. This innovative solution greatly reduces the risk of having credit card information captured by malicious software on a user’s computer. This product is the real thing – not some "vaporware". I recommend SmartSwipe for anyone who uses their credit card online." (Don Burlack, CISSP, CISM, CEH; President - C.S.I. Services Inc.)

Enhanced Security for Online Shopping

Even the so-called strongest internet security cannot completely protect you when you shop online. Most internet security programs will protect your information once it reaches the internet, but hackers can access your personal information while you enter it into your computer and while it sits in your computer's memory. Anti-virus software and firewalls are not enough to protect you from hackers and scammers. With SmartSwipe, your information is protected from the moment you swipe your card, and your information is never stored anywhere on your computer. If you want to be truly safe while shopping the internet, get SmartSwipe today.

Benefits Credit card companies, online retailers and security professionals spend millions of dollars annually to make the internet safe for credit card transactions, yet credit card data is stolen every day. Why is this still happening? Because your computer is vulnerable. Traditional online security mainly uses concepts like encryption and SSL, which only protects information as it goes from your computer to the shopping website. But what happens to your information while you are typing it in, and when it sits in your computer's memory? This is when information is the most vulnerable to malicious software, such as spyware and viruses. Criminals use this vulnerability to steal your credit card information right off of your computer. You will not know they did it until it is too late. SmartSwipe keeps you secure by protecting your sensitive information as you swipe your card. Since your personal information is protected before you enter it into your computer, it is no longer vulnerable to malicious software and hacker attacks.

FAQ I see the "lock" icon on my web browser, and the website assures me their site is safe. Am I still at risk? Yes, the website and transaction system may be secure, but you are still at risk. Your information has to travel through your computer in an unprotected state before it is encrypted (scrambled) - that is where it is most vulnerable. What is SmartSwipe and why do I need it? SmartSwipe is the first truly secure home credit card reader. Internet fraud and identity theft are a growing problem everywhere, and everyone should take action to protect their sensitive information. The SmartSwipe conveniently gives you that protection while you shop on any site. When do I plug in the device? We recommend that you plug in the device during the installation process, right after you restart your computer. However, it does not really matter when you plug it in - many users only plug in the credit card reader when they are about to purchase something online.

How does the SmartSwipe protect me?

Even if the connection between the site you are buying from and your computer is secure, your sensitive information has to travel through your computer before being sent. The SmartSwipe encrypts (scrambles) your credit card information instantly, so your information is never in an unencrypted state.

Can I use my debit card?

No, the SmartSwipe is currently only compatible with credit cards. In the United States it will work with credit/debit combination cards, such as Visa check cards.

Which credit cards are accepted?

Visa, MasterCard, American Express, Discover and JBC. In general, if the site you are buying from accepts the card, so will the SmartSwipe.

What if someone else wants to use my SmartSwipe?

Let them. All they have to do is swipe their card. The SmartSwipe works with any number of credit cards and people.

What if someone breaks into my home and steals my SmartSwipe - will they have all my information?

No, the SmartSwipe never stores any of your card information, so there would be nothing on it to steal.

What are the system requirements for the SmartSwipe?

Requires Internet Connection and available USB port, plus Windows XP, Windows Vista, Windows 7, Internet Explorer 6 or higher.

Can I use it at work or on the road?

Yes. The SmartSwipe will work on any computer that meets the system requirements (see above). It is small, light and portable, perfect for taking with you on the road.

Does it work outside of the United States?

There is no technical reason to stop it from working anywhere, as long as the website you are shopping on allows for out-of-country payments.

What if I need to update my information?

The SmartSwipe does not store any of your information, so you never need to update it manualy in any way. If you get a new credit card, just swipe the new card when you are ready to make a transaction online.

Is it Mac compatible?

Not really - at least, not at the moment. SmartSwipe is currently only compatible with PCs running Windows XP or Windows Vista and Internet Explorer. However, Tim from The Frozen Show successfully used a virtual machine running Windows XP with SmartSwipe.

No, the SmartSwipe only accepts one purchase per transaction.

Do I have to pay a fee every time I swipe?

No, after you purchase the SmartSwype, you can use it as much as you want for free. There are no hidden fees or costs.

Will this technology be obsolete right away?

NetSecure continually updates its software and provides it to customers, cost-free and hassle -free, as new technology emerges.

How is the SmartSwipe affected if my computer get a virus?

The SmartSwipe is completely secure and is not affected by viruses. Your information will still not be vulnerable, because it is not stored.

What if I don't have my card with me, can I then enter the info manually on that computer?

Yes, but it is not recommended. If you need to, you can choose not to use the SmartSwipe and manually enter your card information instead.

I am on a checkout page, what do I do now?

After you have installed SmartSwipe, you will see a 'SmartSwipe button' (yellow and gray chain link) in your browser's toolbar. When you are on a page that requires credit card information, click that button and SmartSwipe will walk you through the rest of the process.
