Surcharges and fees
We believe in transparent pricing. The price you see on the product page is the price you pay at checkout.
[SURCHARGE_POLICY] — for example: “No surcharges apply to any of the payment methods above. All gateway, card-network, and processing fees are absorbed by us.” Replace this placeholder with the policy that applies to your store.
If a specific payment method does carry a surcharge (for example, certain international cards or instalment products), the surcharge will be clearly shown on the checkout page before you confirm your Order, so there are never any surprises.
Security & how your data is protected
PCI-DSS compliant
All card payments are processed by PayFast, which is a Level 1 PCI-DSS compliant payment service provider. Your card data is captured directly in PayFast’s secure, audited environment, and is never stored on our servers.
Encrypted in transit
Every page on this site, including the checkout, is served over HTTPS using modern TLS encryption. This protects information you submit — from your address to your payment authorisation — from being intercepted while it is in transit.
3-D Secure on cards
Credit and debit card payments are protected by 3-D Secure (Verified by Visa, Mastercard Identity Check), which adds an extra step of authentication with your bank before a payment is authorised.
Frequently asked questions
Is it safe to use my card on this site?
Yes. Card payments are handled by PayFast in a PCI-DSS Level 1 environment, with 3-D Secure authentication and TLS encryption end-to-end. Your card number, expiry, and CVV are entered on PayFast’s secure page and are never seen, transmitted, or stored by us.
What is Payflex and how does it work?
Payflex lets you split your purchase into 4 equal, interest-free payments over 6 weeks. You pay 25 % at checkout and Payflex automatically collects the remaining 3 payments every two weeks. You’ll need a South African ID, be 18 or older, and have a valid debit or credit card. Payflex performs a soft credit check that does not affect your credit score.
When is my card actually charged?
For standard card and EFT payments, your card is authorised and the amount is captured immediately at checkout. The funds are then settled to us by the gateway over the following business days. For Payflex, the first instalment (25 %) is charged at checkout, and the remaining three instalments are debited automatically every two weeks.
Can I get a refund to my original payment method?
Yes, wherever reasonably possible refunds are processed back to the original payment method used at checkout. Card refunds typically appear in your account within 5–10 business days, depending on your bank. Payflex refunds adjust your instalment plan, and any amount you’ve already paid is returned to your card.
Do you store my card details?
No. We do not store, process, or transmit any card information on our own servers. All card data is captured and held by PayFast within their PCI-DSS compliant environment. If you save a card for a faster checkout, the card is tokenised and stored by PayFast, not by us.
What if my payment fails?
If a payment fails or is declined, your Order will not be confirmed and no funds will be taken (or any pending hold will be released by your bank within a few business days). You’re welcome to try again with a different card or payment method, or contact us if you’d like help completing your Order.
