You could also store the credit card as a hashed value. This way it is secure and yet it is still accessible for charge backs issued by the bank. A hashed card could only be looked up if you already knew the credit card number. I would also store the type of card, which can usually be determined by the first character and sometimes storing the last 4 digits are helpful for display purposes.
