Shared hosting by itself is not PCI compliant.
You can't store credit / debit card info on a shared server even with an SSL certificate. You can however use a payment gateway such as Eway to collect the info required and handle payments or Paypal is the other option or any number of other solutions. Unless the organisation is ISO 27001 certified they shouldn't even think of storing payment info that isn't counting the money you need to spend on the PCI DSS side of things. I'd just ban anyone from storing card info on the server as its way too much of a security risk think what happened to Cyanweb.com.au when they were brute forced and the hackers destroyed the lot including the billing system.
