The ability to quickly check out and pay for your absinthe order without entering your credit card numbers, with PayPal all you need is an email & a password.
Crypto Currency Payments
Crypto currency is a recognized payment option intended to offer even more flexibility and privacy for customers. Paying using cryptocurrency protects your financial information from being shared with interested third parties such as banks, payment services, advertisers, and credit rating agencies. Bitcoin, Ethereum, Dogecoin, and Litecoin payments can be made easily from anywhere in the world, and offer reduced payment processing costs. We've been accredited and listed on many crypto directories such as Spendabit or Cryptwerk. Once we receive your full payment and it is confirmed, processing of your order is begun and your order would ship out soon afterward. You will receive a further notification from us as soon as your payment is confirmed.
Refunds
After we issue a refund authorization to the bank, credit will appear on the customer's statement within one to two billing cycles, depending on the time required for the card issuing bank to process such transaction. Credit will be issued for part cost, tax and shipping less any re-stocking fees (where applicable). Refunds will be made with the same method of payment as the original order. Credit card refunds will only be made to the same card used for the original purchase. If you still see the charge and don't see the refund, there is a possibility that you still have authorisation shadow left on the account. Some card issuing banks may not reverse the transaction which can leave an authorisation shadow ( when paying for an order, your bank will send us an authorisation code to confirm there are funds in the account) on the card for up to 10 working days.
