When making a payment online, you need to make sure that you are keeping your details safe. The last thing you want is to have a hacker gain access to your financial information and use your money on other sites that you haven’t permitted.

For this reason, you need to understand the various payment method options and use this information to determine the best option for you. Below, we’ll look at some of the best options, so read on if you think about making a payment online anytime soon.

PayPal

If you enjoy making payments online quickly, then you will enjoy using PayPal. This payment method is widely accepted at retail stores online and for prices on just about anything. PayPal has become an industry leader in online payments due to the secure transactions and the limited fees for this process. 

When you make a deposit or buy something with PayPal, you don’t need to wait around for it to go through. PayPal is free to sign up to and is accepted at everything from eBay to online casinos. If you are looking for the safest option out there, we recommend trying out PayPal.

Debit Cards

If you have a bank account, you likely have a debit card attached to this. Your debit card is what you will use to withdraw money from your account at an ATM, but it can also be used to make payments online. Many people are afraid to use their debit cards online because they are worried about unauthorized access being granted to others.

The truth is that debit cards like Visa and MasterCard are some of the best online payment methods. They are secure and quick to process. However, if you want to make sure that you protect your details, you should turn on two-factor authentication. This will help you to reduce the risk of someone accessing your account.

Skrill

PayPal is an e-wallet, but it isn’t the only option out there, despite what some people may think. There are tons of other e-wallet options that allow users to make payments online and not have to worry about their security. Skrill is a popular e-wallet that is known for being secure and fast.

You can use your Skrill account at many sites across the internet, including retail stores, when booking appointments or even playing online. Skrill is really easy to join, and you can have an account for free.

American Express

In Canada, one of the most popular methods for making a payment online is American Express. This is a charge or a credit card that can be used for making a payment at a retail store online. American Express is one of the most popular credit card brands worldwide, although it wasn’t accepted everywhere in 2020.

When you have an American Express card, you can easily make secure transactions. However, it might still be useful to add additional security methods to your account to avoid anyone accessing the funds that you have in your account.

Apple Pay

Now that everyone has a smartphone to shop online, mobile payments are becoming even more common. Brands like Apple have developed payment systems that connect to a bank account and make payments easy online. If you have an Apple device like an iPhone or an iWatch, you’ll find that you could potentially use Apple Pay to make a payment online.

To use Apple Pay, all you need is to connect your payment details to your smartphone or device. Then, when you need to make a payment, it will require a fingerprint scan, a facial scan, or a pin. This has caused security concerns, but Apple’s additional measures have made it one of the most popular options.

Other device manufacturers like Google have followed suit with their Google Pay option.

Interac Online

The final popular payment method to make our list of options is Interac Online. This payment service allows you to pay online directly from your bank account. This is a popular option due to the additional security by reducing the steps involved to make the payment.

Many merchants in Canada use this option because it offers immediate direct payments and low transaction costs. Whether you are buying a new couch or a t-shirt, you’ll find that you can usually use Interac Online. We recommend this option if you want a safe transaction.

Try These Methods

The payment method that you choose to use online is entirely down to you. It would help if you thought about what matters most, security or quick payment. Each merchant will have a list of methods that they can accept and so you should check this out before paying.

If you are worried about your security online, you should check for sites that accept PayPal, which can be the most secure option. Don’t let paying for items online put you off, as there are lots of protections in place to keep your details as safe as possible.
