One of the basic new features recently included in OS X Maverick that you can use while accessing Safari is the iCloud Keychain. With it, your accounts and login passwords, secure notes, and credit card information can be saved safely. It’s a useful feature that allows users to sync vital information across various Apple devices in ways that third-party solutions can’t yet match.
Safari has always been storing user account and password information, but credit card synchronization is new to the service, and it’s unclear how to manage it manually. What Safari does is that it will automatically offer you the option of saving credit card information when you enter it while making an online purchase.
Meanwhile, in this brief guide, we’ll be having a look at how to view saved credit card numbers in Safari for Mac. So, stay tuned as we dig in!
