WeanieWear uses Barclays Merchant Services ePDQ, a secure online service for card payment authorisation and settlement. ePDQ uses a Cardholder Payment Interface with a high level of encryption and the latest 128-bit Secure Socket Layer (SSL) technology, which protects the transmission of your credit card information.

Barclays takes responsibility for capturing and storing card details on their secure servers and ensure that all information is held with the very high levels of security that you would expect from a major financial services company. You will leave the Weanie Wear website briefly into Barclays secure area to give your credit card details, before returning and completing your checkout.
