Encrypt/decrypt the information and then you can either save it as cookie on the user's computer, use sessions or even save the information in a database.

Also, if your gonna be taking credit card details, then a secure server is an absolute must!
Usually: NO SSL = NO PURCHASE
Shared SSL is generally acceptable, however you'll look much more professional if you use your own secure certificate and have your pages on https://yourdomain.com
(i recently moved one of my clients from shared SSL to his own secure server, and his order rate went up 30% in 24 hours, and it stayed up!!)
