I went to that link (setf.com) and viewed the source. The login part is
inside an iframe:

https://customerpage.jmfamily.com/Siteminderfiles/home.asp?TYPE=33554433&REALMOID=06-8dbedf0c-7e90-448a-92d0-7ae2cee7cbd8&GUID=&SMAUTHREASON=0&TARGET=http://customerpage.jmfamily.com/controllers/protected/initialize.asp

so yes they are launching you to SSL site when you click go.

jmfamily.com does off-site loan payment processing.

However I do note they are only using rc4 128 bit and openssl that we
use it capable of quite a bit more than that. :-)

Our commerce sites use rc5 (still crackable but not in flight) 256 bit AES

In fact one of our developers is on this list. :-)
