Logo for ccKeep

Awards $750

The client's request

Create a logo: to brand ccKeep, a new service for GeminiSBS. The logo should communicate A) Strength and Security, and B) Cutting Edge Technology. Note that the name ccKeep is something of a double entendre: 1) On its most basic level, the service offers to “keep” credit card data for you, and 2) A _“keep”_ is the most secure section of a castle. The logo doesn’t have to reference either of these ideas, but it certainly could make use of either or both.

Project objectives

In addition to use in our own materials, we anticipate that the logo may be used by merchants on checkout pages to inform customers about the safety of storing their account information.

Some background

ccKeep is a new service that allows merchants to store sensitive customer billing information – namely credit card numbers – with absolutely zero security risk or liability exposure. Having customer account information on file for later transactions is a convenience for both the merchant and the customer. It enables recurring subscription payments and it speeds the checkout process. But storing such sensitive information makes you an instant target for hackers, and the security challenges associated with protecting that data far exceed the capabilities of most online merchants. ccKeep employs patent pending technology that stores customer data remotely in a way that makes is 100% unhackable. Using a super simple API, the merchant can charge transactions to its existing customers without having to provide (or ask the customer to reveal) the full credit card number. Unlike services like Paypal or Google Checkout, ccKeep allows merchants to process transactions entirely on their own websites, without redirecting their customers to a third-party site for payment.
