Online stores' Security Verifications?

We're in the process of looking for security verifications for online stores that we can register with and display on our website to make shoppers feel completely at ease. We already have our Paypal Verification seal up, but I wanted to look in to additional measures. Verisign was the first I looked into but registering with them and getting the secure certificate is hundreds a year shock That is an expense we cannot afford right now. Anyone have a suggestion? What would make you feel secure when looking into shopping at an online store (if you do so)?

Verified by visa? That might cost a lot too..

How are you accepting payments? If you're only accepting payment via paypal, there's no reason to have SSL installed. If you're accepting payments via credit card, there's no way I'd use your site without SSL.

Yes, we are accepting all payments via the Paypal secure cart system, because you can also pay direct via CC with it.

What are you selling?

I'd just get Verisign. Its expensive but I think its worth it shrug

The verisign ssl is worthless if you're not doing your own credit card processing. It sounds to me like all the CC information is being handled by Paypal. They've essentially taken the place of verisign. Infact. Go look at paypal's site, way down at the bottom. You're paying for that logo with all the paypal transaction fees.

Maybe I misunderstood. When they click checkout it transfers them to a PayPal cart with their SSL? Or does it take all the info. on your page?

Customers are transferred to the Paypal Cart.

That's a good point, I didn't think of it like that lol

I have a list somewhere of a few things in an ebook. Later I'll try to scrounge some sites up if I can.

I've seen some sites with the logo from http//www.scanalert.com

http//www.truste.com/
https//www.escrow.com/index.asp
http//www.dnb.com/us/ Apply for a credit builder account
Become a member of the BBB http//www.bbbonline.com/
and they also said An alibaba trustpass membership but I think that only helps if you plan on doing wholesale with alibaba.
If you want I could send you the ebook.
