I don't think your users would be too happy about you saving their credit card numbers in your database. — Dave Chen, Jun 17 '13 at 07:06
There are professional payment providers which you could use in your shop — jantimon, Jun 17 '13 at 07:07
DON'T DO THAT, let users enter their credit card numbers every time they purchase, it's not safe — Mr. Alien, Jun 17 '13 at 07:07
You don't want this liability. Multiple third party providers will do this for you. — Orangepill, Jun 17 '13 at 07:10

You should never store credit card in your database as they are vulnerable to misuse. Instead go for third party system which offer you to store this secure information for eg. ACH, they provide you to store the information and return you the client id which you can use for next time to process payment.
