Review your order and make your payment
Review your order, then click "Pay with Credit Card"
A secure window opens to make your payment
Clicking “Pay with Credit Card” will open a secured window that is connected directly to the Stripe payment gateway. Your card information is never stored on our website.
On the payment window there is an optional checkbox labeled “Remember me”. Choosing this option allows you to store your payment information with Stripe, and associate it with your email address and mobile phone number. Then, for future purchases, you will receive a text message with a code to verify your identity and complete your purchase rather then enter your payment information each time. If you do not want to use this feature, leave the “Remember me” option un-checked.
If you checked the box last time you registered, and are now confused by the verification code, just wait 5-10 seconds and an option will appear to "Fill in your card details manually".
For more information on the "Remember Me" feature, click below.
