I certainly hate it when merchants bounce me to a different site. It's most likely I will never complete the transaction and just buy from Amazon instead.
If your site sacrifices user experience, I will hate your site. Simple as that. Amazon understands the convenience factor really well.
I hope Apple Pay (on the web) takes off. While I don't like yet another middle man, and I don't care about its security benefits in the slightest, I appreciate the consistent and convenient interface it provides, so I will use it, if offered the choice.

- 4ad 10y agoI don't care about keeping my credit card safer that it already is. I am not liable for credit card fraud. In this insecure world we live in, I have not lost a single dime, nor any time, nor was I inconvenienced in any way by card theft. It's not my problem to worry about. My debit card was skimmed once, a few weeks ago. The bank detected fraud, notified me that they sent me a new card, and I didn't lost any money. I only lost two minutes of my life while I was talking to the bank on the phone.
- Cyph0n 10y agoI'm assuming you ended up with no debit card for a few days at least. That's a huge inconvenience in my opinion.
- 4ad 10y agoNo, because I have many debit cards from different banks in order to have redundancy and increase availability when the bank's system is down, or a particular card simply won't work at some merchant, but other will (usually happens in the US with my European cards).
- tutts 10y agoSo the sites should drop the safety features because there exists a user who would not be personally inconvenienced by the theft of their credit card details?
- Cyph0n 10y agoAnd that adds the overhead of managing multiple balances, fees, and credentials. You don't seem to be a typical bank user, so I'm still going to conclude that getting a credit/debit card stolen is a huge inconvenience.
- enraged_camel 10y agoThe biggest risk of credit card data being stolen is not loss of money, but identity theft.
