MBNet

This isn't stricktly Ed Tech, but it may be helpful for some people.

MBNet is not particularly well marketed. It's existed for a while now, but it was only recently that I actually bothered to find out how it works.

One of the problems with paying online is the fact that when our credit card information is out there, how can we be sure that they won't bill extra? Or that the numbers won't fall into some criminal's hands.

What MBNet does is emits a temporary "virtual" credit card number. You can set the amount to whatever the transaction is going to cost. If you buy something else, you can emit another temporary card.

The option is available directly through Net Banking ... so, if you bank online, look it up.

Great for buying your prezzies online, or books for your studies, etc.
