Well, I was going to end up buying the top clan's package teir simply because I wanna help support the game and those who put in the work to make the game what it is. But, when I go to pay for it. It asks for my credit information which is already saved with the site because I by MC every now and then. Which kinda screamed to me "Watch out" but, I could be simply losing my mind on that. I've looked for anything to explain how the buyin process goes but without any luck so I figured I would come on here and ask lol.

The payment information is likely not saved specifically to prevent someone from grabbing it. You provide it, you get processed, all data except for payment confirmation is wiped.

I had to do the same thing, it's no big deal, I'm kind of glad; to know that they make it safe and look out for us.

CC Information shouldn't be saved, it's going through a 3rd party billing system. What may be happening is your browser has autocomplete functions that can store information/passwords, etc. The cache on that autocomplete probably expired.

Hm, well I'm just use to seeing it I suppose when I'm signed into the site. Without seeing it I got trolled into thinking that I wasn't signed in anymore when I clicked on the clan's link to go a head and do the buy itself. Or what?

At the bottom of the Clan packages there is an indicator of if you are logged in or not there are a couple places it shows "ACCOUNT: Callsign" so it should be showing you as
"ACCOUNT: HYPOCRISY"

So when you click on any of the buy links it will be applied to that account. The third party system is PlaySpan, and while it doesn't really look like it the buy links are opening a link to that external billing system. As long as the logged in account on the clan page is correct you'll be fine.

EDIT: I just walked through this and I see there is an option to "Save credit card info for future purchase" - this is likely a cache that is stored by your browser and they usually have an expiration on how long they last. Also if you use a different computer or browser it wouldn't see that saved information either.

And you really don't want your browser to be saving information. =)
