How to manually store your credit card information to iCloud Keychain with iOS 7

iCloud Keychain is a nifty feature built right into iOS 7 that allows you to not only save and generate passwords, but to securely store credit card information for easy access. Here's how to manually add a credit card number to iCloud Keychain for use later:

1. Launch the Settings app from the Home screen of your iPhone or iPad.
2. Scroll down and tap on Safari.
3. Under the first section labeled General, tap on Passwords & AutoFill.
4. At the very bottom, make sure the Credit Cards option is turned to On and then tap on Saved Credit Cards directly beneath it.
5. Now tap on Add Credit Card.
6. Enter the credit card information and then tap Done in the upper right hand corner.

That's all there is to it! iCloud Keychain will now remember that information and sync it across all your iOS and OS X compatible devices. iCloud Keychain is far from perfect but it does make for a convenient way to autofill credit card information and store it for reference, if you trust it that is.

What about you? Do you trust iCloud Keychain with your credit card information or are you not yet convinced the cloud is the right place for it?
