The actual processing of your credit card data takes place on a
PROTX (banking system) secure SSL
computer and YOUR bank authorises your transaction in real time. This means no human gets
to see your credit card number!
You will see the "Golden Padlock" symbol in your browser while you are on the
PROTX server. You will also see the
address of that page has changed from one beginning with "http://" to "https://" - notice the extra "s"
which stands for 'secure'. When you enter your details here, they are securely encrypted using 128 bit encryption.
There are no documented cases of credit card fraud using this shopping system over the Internet.

A Warning:
Gamble.co.uk is owned and run by Take That Ltd. who have been selling casino equipment and books online since 1986. You'll find more
about us, here. From the information above, you will see we are fully accredited and have been
checked-out by consumer organisations, banks and even the Government.
Since poker and home casinos games have grown in popularity, a lot of new companies have flooded onto the internet. Many of these
are selling sub-standard chips and equipment at suspiciously low prices.
For example, at the time of writing, one company is advertising "100 Pro Vegas Style Chips £9.90" on Google. Go to
their site and you'll see the description "Casino quality Poker chips ". This looks like a good deal.
However, when your order arrives, you'll discover the chips weigh just 4gm each. There is nothing 'Pro' or 'Professional'
about that. Casinos and professional poker players never use chips weighing under 10gm, and the deception of the advertising certainly
isn't professional (in our opinion).
You will also find chips made from re-cycled plastic, "reversible" table tops with just one side and aluminium cases which
are cardboard sprayed with aluminium-coloured paint!!
If a deal looks too good to be true - it probably is.
