Is my credit card information stored safely, and by whom?

This information is encrypted, and you may then re-use it for further transactions. It is stored by the EPO's payment service provider, Ingenico ePayments, which is a Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI-DSS) certified organisation.

Furthermore, credit card acquirer Concardis has a contract to accept, approve and process, on the EPO's behalf, payments by credit card which result in a transfer of funds to the EPO. Concardis settles these payments with the card-issuing banks.
