We aim to provide a secure and transparent checkout experience. This page explains the payment methods we accept, how transactions are handled, and our commitment to your financial security.
Accepted Payment Methods
We currently accept the following major payment options for orders placed through our website:
- Credit/Debit Cards: Visa, MasterCard
- Digital Wallet: PayPal
All prices are listed and charged in United States Dollars (USD). The total displayed at checkout is the exact amount that will be charged to your selected payment method.
Payment Security
Your security is of utmost importance. Our entire website uses 256-bit SSL (Secure Socket Layer) encryption to protect your personal and payment information during transmission. We do not store your complete credit card or PayPal login credentials on our servers. All card transactions are processed through PCI-DSS compliant payment gateways that meet the highest industry standards for security.
Order Authorization and Verification
When you place an order, the payment method may undergo an authorization hold to ensure sufficient funds. The actual charge is processed when we ship your items. We reserve the right to perform additional verification checks for fraud prevention. In some cases, we may request proof of identity or billing address before processing an order. If verification is not completed within 5 business days, the order may be automatically cancelled and any pending authorizations will be released.
Currency and Billing
Your bank statement will show a charge from BAPEE SHOP or a similar identifiable descriptor. If you have any questions regarding the billing entry on your statement, please reach out to our Customer Service before disputing the charge with your bank so we can resolve the matter directly.
Taxes
Applicable sales tax will be calculated and added to your order total at checkout based on the shipping destination, in accordance with state and local tax laws.
Failed or Refused Payments
If a payment is declined, the order will not be processed. Please contact your bank or card issuer if the issue persists. We do not store declined payment attempts and will not resubmit charges without your explicit authorization.
