Two Layers of Protection
Our online payment system has always had the guaranteed security of BluePay, our processing company. Your sensitive information is transmitted in encrypted form, and always has been.
But some readers and advertisers have been concerned that our payment pages have not had the security of "SSL" - where the web address starts with "https" and a little padlock appears in your browser.
That's why we've added SSL protection to our payment pages - for your piece of mind and a second layer of security.
So look for the padlock and the "https." They're your guaranty that your SMRN online payment is totally safe and secure.
