Is Shop for a Cause safe?

Low risk

Shop for a Cause accepts checkout page messages that can write caller-supplied credit-card details into payment fields.

The extension injects a checkout script into all HTTP and HTTPS frames and listens for postMessage requests that include a hardcoded senderId. A matching message can fill payment form inputs such as card number, security code, expiration date, and cardholder name without checking the sender origin. The stored claim does not identify any external recipient for this data.

Part of this rating comes from analysis signals we haven't published as detailed findings yet.
