How to transmit information over the Internet securely when using an online credit card application?

Make sure your credit card application is secure

When filling out a credit card application online, look for a padlock icon on the application page or in the address line. This will let you know that the site is secure. If you click on the icon, you should be given security information about the site including the status of the security certificate. Because the personal information you enter into your online credit card application is sensitive, it's worth it to make sure that it will be safe from hackers.
