At the time Your order is placed, we may check Your credit card information with Your credit card issuing institution if we deem it necessary. We will also obtain an approval from Your credit card issuing institution for the amount in Your Order. For typical Orders, Your credit card account will be charged immediately upon this approval. For Pre-orders, Your credit card will be charged before shipment.

Unsuccessful credit card payment could be due to one of these reasons:

  • Your credit card has not been activated
  • You have reached your credit card limit
  • You have provided us with incorrect credit card information
  • Your issuing bank requires a pre-transaction verification
  • Your credit card is expiring in 30 days

 There may also be other factors involved that result in unsuccessful credit card transaction. We may act to process or not process Your Order as we deem fit.

2.3  Payment Process

You should provide Your billing information that matches Your credit card information. You will be informed via a real-time online message if Your payment has NOT been successfully processed.
