You seem to think that "HTTPS" is a restriction; why? There's no
sign-in involved.

Based on what I've heard, you might need to go to a third party for
the online stuff. The credit card processor, if they don't offer this
themselves, can probably provide a list of their customers who do
this. On the other hand, if you don't have a credit card processor
yet, you might want to instead shop for someone who does the online
stuff, and they can give you a list of processors that they deal with.

I would suggest that you not touch credit card numbers at all, if you
can help it; let the online company handle all of that.  The news is
full of companies that lose data; you don't want to be on the news
that way.

Good advice is like good paint- it only works if applied.
