Card Security & Verification

Card Security & Verification

Making sure your details are not shared when purchasing online is as important to us as it is to you, the customer. Therefore we use a database that encrypts all the customers personal details, such as passwords, emails and card details.
When you purchase an item from us with a Credit or Debit Card we have two extra precautionary methods for both our and your security. These are called Verified by Visa and Mastercard Secure-Code . These two security protocols protect you from unauthorized use of your card online.

Verified by Visa is a password that is only known by you and your bank, which you set up when you make your first card payment online, you are asked to enter three characters of this password to confirm the purchase is from yourself. You are able to make a purchase without using Verified by Visa, but we dont recommend this. If you do not want to use Verified by Visa, we accept payments via PayPal for your convenience. A image which you will see when you first attempt a purchase online is shown below.

Mastercard Secure-Code is a similar initiative for all payments made online with a Mastercard. When you make your first payment online with a Mastercard you are asked to set up a password, and then required to enter three digits from this password whenever you make a purchase online. You can make a purchase online without using Mastercard Secure-Code but we dont recommend this. If you do not want to use Mastercard Secure-Code. we accept payments via PayPal for your convenience.
