It should be safe on a secure site, but it is always best to use a credit card. If there are any fraudulent charges you can dispute them and get them reversed. With a debit card you are on your own, and once they have your information they can wipe out your checking account. I had $2500 in fraudulent credit card charges reversed in Jamaica a couple years ago. I would have been in big trouble if they got my debit card info.

If your debit card has a CVV number on the back side of the card, just below the magnetic strip and after the signature patch, you can use your debit card online.

Without CVV number, cards cannot be used for online/internet transactions.

Depends on whether its a secure site or not, or if it saves your information or discards it, if the website has a protection policy against hacked information.
