How many times have you been ready to check out with your online purchases and then been asked "do you want to store your credit card details?"
Despite it most likely being a trusted site, you quickly click "no thanks" and yet again you fill in your shipping and billing details. Annoying to do over and over, but it makes you feel secure - at least I do.
These days despite the budget being super super tight over here, I have had to depend more on online shopping - mostly due to me getting bigger and not being able to stand in long lines and deal with the Christmas shopping crowds.
A few weeks ago I decided that I needed a little gift for myself and went online shopping with V.me by Visa at PacSun for non-maternity items. V.me had approached me to try out their secure online shopping and I was eager to give it a go - not much arm twisting was needed!
Can't wait to wear my red bomber jacket après bébé
I ended up getting a pair of black and gold studded flats, an owl necklace and a red bomber jacket. I thought I'd take advantage of the sales despite not being able to wear the jacket just yet.
The truth is, knowing it has the Visa name is why I accepted to register on their site. They securely store your billing and shipping details; which also means you have just one username and one password to remember. Then you are ready to shop online anywhere V.me is accepted as a form of payment. I found it hassle free and it made the check out process faster.
There are a number of sites where you can securely pay with V.me, including:
I ended up giving the owl necklace to my sister as a gift, but kept the shoes and jacket. I love red and I can't wait to wear it post baby!
As we roll into 2013, lookout for the V.me by Visa sign when you do your online shopping and give it a try. Oh and you can also register your phone and shop from there. Wowza....sooooo tempting!
Happy New Year!
