How do I remove saved credit card info from my browser?

Answer

Whenever your computer offers to remember your credit card information, it is stored in your browser. Saving financial information, such as credit card numbers, or passwords in a browser is a very dangerous practice since it is easy to discover that information.  Best practice is to turn off the ability to store credit card information in your browser, but if you ever have, you should clean them out. This is also true of stored passwords.

How to look up and clean out credit card numbers

1. Make sure that you are logged into your browser. You should be able to see your icon at the upper right corner of your screen. It could be the first letter of your first name or a photo you chose. Click on it.

2. Below your name and email address, click the credit card icon. If any stored values are displayed, you can delete them from that screen.  

3. Click the link "Autofill and passwords" on the left.  

4. Use the slider to disable "Save and fill payment methods." 

5. Use the slider to disable "Allow sites to check if you have payment methods saved."
