I'm not sure where you were when you were entering a credit card number but the lock symbol doesn't really mean anything. You can have a form on a non-secure server that is submitted to a secure server for processing. You won't see the lock, but the transaction is secure. Similarly, you can have a form on a secure server that is submitted to a non-secure server for processing. You'll see a lock because the form itself is on a secure server, but you won't realize it's being submitted to a non-secure server.
In the end it doesn't matter too much even if you submitted your card number to a non-secure server. In order for the number to be stolen, someone would have to be spoofing the server and harvesting cards. That's not worth doing for a small-volume site like Jackite. If you're going to go to all that trouble then you'll want to pretend to be Amazon or PayPal.

Like maybe it's not secure. I'll pass for now.
