Alright, all you online shop-a-holics, have I got a cool new gadget for you!I myself love to shop over the internet, but I hate, hate, hate the checkout process. Having to type in my credit card information - it's just SO tedious!
But there's a solution that's fast, easy, and safe. It's called SmartSwipe, and it may just become your new best friend.
I think the picture pretty much says it all! But for those of you who are curious to know details, there's more.
According to SmartSwipe's homepage, "SmartSwipe is the world’s first truly secure personal credit card reader...you can swipe your credit card at your home or office computer just like you would in a store."
You might be thinking: Sounds good, but how secure is secure?
In an feature called 10 Cool New Mobile Gadgets, PC World highlighted SmartSwipe's safety and versatility:
"The next time you buy something online with your credit card number, don't type it, swipe it. NetSecure's desktop device lets you shop online while bypassing keyloggers or other malware that could sneak onto your PC. Just download the the SmartSwipe software, plug the mouse-size card reader into a USB port, click the SmartSwipe button inside Internet Explorer when you're ready to make a purchase, and swipe your plastic. SmartSwipe uses Dynamic SSL to encrypt your card data before it reaches your PC, and then inserts the information into the proper fields in the site's shopping cart. SmartSwipe works with thousands of e-tailers from Amazon to Zappos, and functions in Internet Explorer 6 or 7; support for IE8 and Firefox is in the works."
And online shoppers around the world say: WOOHOO!
