Why do you want to buy it from Steam rather than lfs.net?

Because I'm not sure if my credit card is safe. There are illegal sites that copy yours and take payments. If it's from Steam, I'd feel safe. Cybercrime cases have increased recently and I don't want my card information to fall into the hands of others.

This is a safe website. You can see your connection is secured by looking the address of this website. It is https://lfs.net, not http://lfs.net - what does this mean is that it has SSL/TLS encryption. And the certificate for that is still valid - and always will be!

It means that all communication between your browser and LFS.net is encrypted and protected. This does includes your passwords, credit card numbers etc.

Without it, all kind of data would be sent as plain text across the internet. In that situation, anyone in between could read it. But because the data is protected, it means that before data leaves your browser, it will be encrypted. It means that even if someone would interrupt it (which is much more unlikely to happen with HTTPS than with HTTP), only thing they can see is random nonsense that no one could ever figure it out what it really is.

And, all credit card payments with this site are processed by Elavon which is one of the most secure and trusted processors of card transactions in the world. Over 2 million customers in many, many countries use it. And it processes more than 6 billion transactions around the world per year. And needless to say, that too has SSL/TLS encryption.
Unless I am mistaken, we've been selling online longer than Steam.

Correct. Steam client started on September 12th, 2003 and the first game you could actually buy digitally on Steam was Half-Life 2 which was released on November 16th, 2004.

At least on August 2003, people were able to at least pre-order your game from RaceSimCentral: https://web.archive.org/web/20030812134618/http://lfs.racesimcentral.com/sublinks.php?page=buyonline (yes the website doesn't want to display everything, but it does display working link to pre-order page)

There is also order page from February 2004: https://web.archive.org/web/20040207150541/http://lfs.racesimcentral.com/content/order.php
By the way, we don't store any credit card details. Our site doesn't even see them during the payment process. And we have to run regular PCI DSS checks to comply with the security standards.

Some other companies store your credit card details for use in future purchases. We don't.

I find it funny how u think lfs.net is not safe for purchase, meanwhile you are here texting on the same site and talking with the developers Na-na

LFS won’t touch the few pennies on your card, don’t worry. And if you don’t feel safe, you can find yourself other games on Steam. Why are you wasting time talking nonsense here?
I just realized this situation and motives. End of discussion.

Quote from Byrontr :What's the point of playing with my friends using three vehicles?

Have you even tried those 3 vehicles you speak of, with any of your "friends" ? Cool

Your stats show you have 0 PBs, and your Total LFS stats on every section: 0 Na-na
This conversation is going nowhere.
