Provided that you're satisified that the business that you are dealing with is bonafide and providing that you are using a PC that is secure, i.e. that its got a firewall in place and anti-virus software in place then there are no problems at all with using your card on the internet. It is a fact that actually the vast majority of internet card fraud that takes place is where a fraudster has stolen card details in the real world for use on-line. Therefore, one of the key things that you can do is just making sure you keep your card details safe in the real world so that you can happily shop on-line.
