If I want to offer wire transfer as a payment method on an ecommerce, is it safe to post my bank info (account number, routing number, SWIFT code, etc)? I’ve seen this on some sites but something doesn’t sit well with me providing that information. Obviously, anyone I send a check to has that information, so is there really any reason to not post it?
No … checking accounts have terrible security.
You write a check and it has all the info a person
needs to create the same check and then “write
away”.
And then solving the problem is a nightmare.
So many people worry about credit cards, even
though the security is excellent and then ignore
the risks involved with checks.
Yeah I guess it makes sense to not make that data public on purpose, although I see it on sites all the time, oh well, no big deal… Thanks
