Ensure that you are using https rather than http for the portions where you are going to be handing over credit card information. Use strong encryption on the card details in the database, and keep the server secured behind at least one firewall with the security updates kept patched continuously.

Like Pete said, use
https
, and encrypt using a strong encryption algorithm. Search around to see which ones are better than others."Real programmers just throw a bunch of 1s and 0s at the computer to see what sticks" - Pete O'Hanlon
