Just like on Main Street, it makes sense online to deal only with a Web business that you can trust.

vacationtechnician.com travel payment policy is to use Bank Wire Transfer. We will provide you with wire instructions upon making your reservation with us.

Rather than ask you to send your sensitive financial information to us over the internet unencrypted -as many travel agencies and tour operators presently do...we have opted for 100% secure electronic payment options.

This policy protects us all ..from fraudulent security risks currently proliferating online worldwide: Check Fraud, Credit Card Fraud & identity theft. We hope you understand.


Vacationtechnician.com Internet Payment Tip:

If you decide to send payment to any party over the internet use the following tips. Ensure that the vendor protects your financial information utilizing SSL 128 bit encryption. Simply stated, this step transforms your private credit card details into code before it leaves your computer.

That insures if captured en-route by a fraudulent third party, it will just be a useless string of computer code, no more. Failure to use encryption opens your data up to interception by hackers and criminals.

Unless of course, they are these hackers, which supports our call for secure wire transfer of your travel deposit and payments.

RED ALERT: many travel tour operators do not protect your credit card information during their online registration transaction.
