I think it is generally a BAD IDEA to keep the CC# so that it can be
accessed again.
Better give the CC# a descriptive name under which the customer can
access it again. The correlation between the name and number can be
established behind the firewall on a more private machine.
This makes it of course more difficult to process the clearing in real
time when the customer uses the descriptive name.
