Payment options, Shipping, Currency, Taxes, Insurance

• Online Credit Card, processed via Windcave secure payment system.
  Common cards accepted include: Visa, Mastercard, American Express, JCB, Diner’s, Discover and UnionPay international.
• Offline Credit Card processing - card details are entered on our secure encrypted page and sent in two parts to the website admin, for manual processing.
  This option can be used where (for example) online card payment is not working for certain transactions, or for special/custom orders, where the total cost is to be determined.
• Bank Transfer - For quick & easy international payments, we use and recommend wise.com.
  Charges are generally lower than most other banks, and payments are typically sent in a few hours, as the funds do not have to cross any borders.

For payment by International Bank Transfer (outside New Zealand) and Direct Deposit (within New Zealand) - our bank account details will be shown at the bottom of the email order confirmation, sent after you have submitted your order.

Currency

All prices on this website are in New Zealand Dollars (NZD). The amount charged during checkout will always be in New Zealand Dollars, regardless of where you are ordering from.

The GST amount will be added during checkout, if applicable. 

Taxes, Customs and Duty charges may apply to orders sent outside New Zealand

For most countries there WILL likely be additional import taxes and/or duty fees. It is your responsibility to find out what these are ahead of time.
Each country handles these differently, which is why we do not have a database of what those fees will be. Please find out how this will impact you ahead of time.
Import taxes/duty/fees applicable to you can usually be found by contacting your local customs service or postal office.
For International orders we do not charge any customs duties or taxes.
If any of these are applicable they will be charged upon delivery by the customs office or delivery service in your country. The applicable charges vary from country to country. 
Deliveries to the United States do not normally attract any customs duties or taxes, in our experience. This is general advice only.

Insurance Against loss in transit

Your order is insured against loss in transit. The cost is included in the shipping charge.
