Credit Card Payments

If you are paying by credit card, you will be asked to submit your credit card details during our secure checkout process. You will receive an email from us to confirm your order. A record of your order can also be viewed via your account profile on https://kiwiwoodshavings.co.nz.

Payment for your order is processed as soon as your order is submitted (plus any delivery charges).

If your nominated credit card is declined by your financial institution, we will not be able to guarantee the delivery of your order, and we may contact you to make alternative payment and delivery arrangements.

Website & Credit Card Security

We take website and credit card security extremely seriously, and always endeavour to provide a secure safe platform on which to conduct online transactions. https://kiwiwoodshavings.co.nz uses the industry standard Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) protocol, which encrypts your information as it is transmitted over the internet. This encryption scrambles details such as credit card number, billing details and delivery address so that generally, other computers are unable to decipher the information, ensuring privacy and security.

We do not store your credit card details

All payments are processed through Stripe, a secure PCI compliant, third party.

To ensure you are accessing a secure server, check for the unbroken key or closed lock symbol located generally either at the bottom left or top right of your browser window. If it appears, then SSL is active. You can double check this by looking at the URL as well. If SSL is active, then the first characters of that line will read ‘https’ rather than just ‘http’. It is important for you to protect against unauthorized access to your password and to your computer. Ensure you logout when you have finished visiting our website, especially if you access our site from a shared computer.
