SSL encrypts confidential data such as credit card numbers and passwords. Either a shared SSL or a private SSL is required when taking credit cards off your site. You are welcome to provide us with the SSL and we will install it for $35.00, or you can purchase a 128bit/256bit SSL certificate directly from us for $75.00.
