Shop Smart from Online Shops

Many people miss out the offers from online shops as they think going online is not safe. But what you need to know is some basic rules and guidance to ensure safe and secure online shopping.

Here are a few tips to help you determine which online shop is legitimate and which is not:

• A secure online shopping website’s URL begins with “https://” where “s” indicates secure website.

• If the padlock at the bottom of the website is closed the site is a secured one.

• Sometimes you will see an unbroken key which is also the mark of a secure site.

• Make sure that you know the merchant’s full web address before you log on to the site.
