Environment:
Event Temple Web App
Answer:
Collecting & saving guest credit cards involves sensitive information and should not be done in Event Temple.
Specific laws and regulations vary on this topic and you should refer to local laws to ensure you aren't putting yourself at risk when it comes to collecting & storing credit card information.
The PCI Compliance website is also a great place to find out more information.
Some important information from the site:
The payment brands may, at their discretion, fine an acquiring bank $5,000 to $100,000 per month for PCI compliance violations. The banks will most likely pass this fine along until it eventually hits the merchant. Furthermore, the bank will also most likely either terminate your relationship or increase transaction fees.
If you'd like to accept credit card payments from guests, a great way is to use Stripe payment processing, which is integrated with Event Temple. There are also other online payment processing alternatives, however they are not currently integrated.
