Capitec Online Purchasing Problem

[deweyzeph]

For the record, the new Capitec card is actually a cheque debit card, not a normal debit card. Normal debit cards (like the old Capitec cards) are Visa Electron or Maestro labeled and cannot normally be used for internet purchases. Cheque debit cards have the same Visa and Mastercard logo as normal credit cards and can be used anywhere where a normal credit card can be used.

What logo does your Capitec card have on it?
