Sports Ventures utilizes a specialized company, Setcom, to safely process your credit card payment. Setcom provides a wide range of mission critical real-time e-commerce services including credit card and debit card processing.

Setcom employs advanced security protocols to facilitate simple and cost-effective on-line transactions. It uses the latest SET™ payment processing in cooperation with First National Bank, South Africa, which also provides Sports Ventures all banking facilities since its inception. Setcom is also credited as being the first South African CSP to offer the SET™ protocol over and above SSL.

What is SET
The SET™ Specification is an open technical standard for the commerce industry developed by Visa and MasterCard as a way to facilitate secure payment card transactions over the Internet. Digital Certificates create a trust chain throughout the transaction, verifying cardholder and merchant validity, a process unparalleled by other Internet security solutions.

SET™ relies on cryptography and digital certificates to ensure message confidentiality and security. Message data is encrypted using a randomly generated key that is further encrypted using the recipient's public key. This is referred to as the "digital envelope" of the message and is sent to the recipient with the encrypted message. The recipient decrypts the digital envelope using a private key and then uses the symmetric key to unlock the original message.
