Saving your Credit Card or Debit Card details in an encrypted and well protected environment will allow you, when needed, to make payments to Cyberia in a very simple, fast, yet highly secure method.
Card Data will be encrypted and stored only at the Payment Gateway (Bank Audi), in a highly secure environment compliant with worldwide norms and regulations. Cyberia will only store a secure and unique identifier: The “Token”, generated by the Payment Gateway. Only the cardholder can initiate a transaction, authorizing Cyberia to use this Token in order to process a payment due to Cyberia.
By saving the Credit Card or Debit Card information, you will no longer need to provide the full card data every time you make a purchase or a refill. You will only have to provide your card’s CVV number for every payment. The unique Token is the only card related information that Cyberia will pass to the Payment Gateway in order for a payment to be collected.
By providing your CVV number at the Payment Gateway’s page, you are authorizing Cyberia to charge that card with the due amounts related to a purchase or a refill through Cyberia’s website.
You can remove a saved card at any time through Cyberia’s website. Removing a saved card however, does not in any means revoke Cyberia’s right to unsettled amounts incurred in connection with services offered by or through Cyberia and does not entail any modification to these services.
Cyberia will process all payments in US Dollars. Where your payment through the saved Debit Card or Credit Card involves a currency conversion, by saving a Debit Card or a Credit Card you consent to and authorize the card issuer bank to convert the currency accordingly.
