A method and a system for facilitating online commerce between a customer's computing device (18) and a supplier's computing device (15), in cooperation with a validating computing device (26). Security-sensitive input/output operations are carried out at each end of the transaction by dedicated computing means, one for the customer and one for the supplier. The dedicted customer computing means (18) is communication-connected (15) to the supplier's e-commerce server (26) and order-processing computer (15) via separate connections. Encrypted messages pass between the dedicated devices via a validating third party. The tasks handled are: requesting customer confirmation; executing payment upon confirmation and supplying goods or services. |
