The present invention relates to an apparatus and a method for secure value transactions between a customer and a merchant in a computerised environment being part of a global interconnecting network, such as the Internet. The method is adapted for utilising existing credit card processing infrastructure and includes the steps of: the customer obtaining a password, such as a PIN, from an intermediate transaction party and validating a server of the intermediate transaction party, the merchant having installed a code module function on its web-based service that generates a transaction identification number, and redirecting or presenting the customer with a link to the intermediate transaction party. The present invention is characterised by the intermediate transaction party presenting the customer with a password-protected account page to validate a purchase either by marking a correct validation or inputting the transaction identification number and amount.
