Why do you need my credit card during trial?

While some Mobicip parents ask this question, we also get the following question frequently from our parents - is my information safe with Mobicip?

You can try Mobicip FREE for 7 days, but Federal Law requires us to get verifiable parental consent to access your child's data as part of the Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA). This is done through a verification only check with a parent credit/debit card.

We will not charge your credit card during your 7-day free trial period and you will receive a reminder email about the charge before your card is charged. We provide a 30-day money back guarantee in case you are not satisfied with Mobicip. You can cancel your subscription by contacting us.  

If you purchase a Mobicip subscription through iTunes as an in-app purchase, your payment details are collected and protected by Apple. In case you made the purchase online or via the Android app, your payment details are securely collected and protected through Stripe, a global payment processor trusted by thousands of software-as-a-service providers like Mobicip.

• PCI Compliance - Stripe is at PCI Service Provider Level 1, which is the highest grade of payment processing security. 
• Encryption - All credit card numbers are encrypted and safely stored in Stripe's state of the art data-center.
• SSL Protection - All transactions are SSL (Secure Socket Layer) protected.

Suffice to say that your data is secured using standards, way above industry security standards.
