Comment on Ask HN: How do you ask customers for 'secrets'

Comments

I usually ask clients to send over sensitive passwords and keys via iMsg if possible.

If that's not possible I use

https://1time.app

It encrypts and gives you a cut and paste URL/pass to view, it also times out after a specified time.

and ask client to send user/password separately, and not to include any identifying information as to what service it's for.

Could this be used to share credit card details as well?

I think it would be better to share card details over a voice call or using stripe in a form.

Agreed, but some people just hate the phone. I'm looking for a modern looking form / way to collect this info in a trustworthy way.
