When signing up for a new account we require some type of payment information like a credit card, PayPal account, or Amazon Pay account mainly for 2 reasons:
1. When signing up for a new account we authorize your payment method with a random USD amount that we use to verify an account is NOT fraudulent and to keep fraudulently activity down to a minimum. However, please note that this random USD amount that is charged to your payment method will then be automatically refunded back to your original payment method.
2. We securely keep your payment method on file, which if it's a credit card, is not stored locally but securely on Authorize.Net's certified PCI DSS compliant servers. We do this to ensure a smooth and uninterrupted service for shipping out your shipments and processing your personal shopper orders as quickly as possible.
