ONLINE SECURE PAYMENT SYSTEM
We use Stripe as our payment system. All the credit card information is processed by Stripe, no credit card data is held by us in any form.
Communication between the shopper and Stripe is encrypted to the maximum strength supported by the shopper’s browser using TLS or 128 Bit SSL. Shoppers are also protected from fraudulent use of their card in a “card not present” environment, by their card issuers. The card issuers provide the right for shoppers to dispute a transaction if the goods/services did not arrive or if the card was used fraudulently.
Stripe supports the full range of fraud-prevention methods including online transaction authorisation and cardholder verification.
The Stripe payment system uses a combination of both established and innovative techniques to ensure the security and integrity of all sensitive data.
Stripe accepts payments from Visa, MasterCard, Visa Delta, Maestro/Switch, Visa Electron and Solo. All transactions are in pounds sterling.
If paying by credit or debit card please provide the billing address your card provider holds on file.
You confirm that the credit or debit card being used is yours. We cannot be liable for any unauthorised transactions nor can we be held liable for any denied payments which are a result of the information provided by you.
