    My form was approved 2 years (see below) ago and I specifically asked about the way i was collecting the cc info.  If I would have known there would be a change, I could have stopped my clients from using the form but now I look sketchy because no one informed me.  I am a travel agent and need a way to collect cc info so that I can manually make payments to the supplier the client is using (cruise line, hotel, etc.).  Is there a tool for that?

    "We do not have any special tool designed for collecting credit card information  so your standard fields are fine. We care about security, but we do not encrypt the data in our database, and you will be collecting the credit card information on your own risk.

     

    Since you have switched to the SSL and removed the sensitive information from email template, your form is ready to accept secure submissions. Also, it is recommended to access the JotForm website through SSL version:https://www.jotform.com/

    If you need any further assistance, please let us know. We will be happy to help."

    We apologize for the misinformation, collecting credit card through standard fields has never been allowed. 

    When it comes to payment forms, only the integrated payment fields are allowed for that purpose, in which you can enable the "Payment Authorization":

    I recommend you to delete the credit card fields from your forms in order to avoid an account suspension.
