Is a Minecraft.net safe place to use your credit card?

If you dont trust it, even though they do have an SSL Certificate, just use PayPal! Safer, easier, trustworthy, and more reliable. Thats the Payment Method I used when purchasing my copy of Minecraft

Somehow paypal never even crossed my mind. Lol. I'll go that way, thanks

I've already bought 5 copy's (1 one myself and four gift codes for my nooby friends) through PayPal. It's safe and reliable just like you said. I've never had any problem with any of the codes or PayPal (and yes I do mean PayPal in general, not just Minecraft)

I'm like Nitrocrime. I've bought Minecraft three times, once for myself and two times for my friends. All through PayPal and I haven't had any problems.

2	I bought the game and haven't noticed anything suspicious. Nor have I heard any news related to Minecraft and credit cards. answered May 15 '11 at 12:23 Jourei 241●5●7●13

Yer the site is fine.

Got the game in alpha and nothing wrong on my card.

Just saw it had no money on it..... I don't think that's MineCraft's fault.

Something tells me that could have been your own fault... Haha, just kidding.

2	I see that people have already answered your question. So I'm just going to say; MINECRAFT IS SO AWESOME. That is all..... answered May 16 '11 at 08:06 Blind Fury 985●32●41●53

0	Ya, I have it and everything is reliable, plus there are a lot of people who own it, so they would have to be honest. answered May 15 '11 at 16:44 Coljaboy 116●11●12●18

0	To answer your question, yes, it is a reliable site to use your card on. Although I wasted $20 on a game in which I do NOT enjoy playing, it is reliable. I just wish I could get that money back! answered May 16 '11 at 23:10 TechJohnson 1.7k●13●23●45

0	I bought it three days ago using a credit card, no issues. answered Sep 17 '11 at 14:08 Alastor Moody ♦♦ 6.5k●11●35●60

0	I bought the game about a week ago. No problems. I believe if there was a problem it would definitely be publicized. And plus, they do have an SSL certificate so the data is encrypted. answered Sep 17 '11 at 17:24 guineaphinea 271●23●26●35

0	Yes, the site itself is safe, but potential malware already on your computer is what I'd be most worried about. answered Sep 17 '11 at 18:08 Sneakyone 2.3k●4●16●47 edited Sep 17 '11 at 18:08
