{"page":{"id":60,"title":"Payment Methods","handle":"payment-methods","url":"https://kinprint.shop/payment-methods/","body_html":"<p class=\"policy-updated\">Last updated: <time datetime=\"2026-10-29\">October 29, 2026</time></p>\n<p>This page explains how paying for a Kin Print order works: where you see the available payment options, when you are charged, how your payment details are protected, which currency we use, and what to do if a payment does not go through. We keep this page deliberately simple and honest. We only list a payment method by name once it is connected and tested on our checkout, so the most reliable place to see what you can use today is the payment step of the checkout itself. Questions are welcome at <a href=\"mailto:support@kinprint.shop\">support@kinprint.shop</a>.</p>\n<section class=\"policy-summary\">\n<h2>Paying at a glance</h2>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Where to see options:</strong> the payment step at checkout shows every option available for your order.</li>\n<li><strong>When you pay:</strong> at the moment you place the order.</li>\n<li><strong>Currency:</strong> all prices and charges are in US dollars (USD).</li>\n<li><strong>Shipping:</strong> free to the United States, Canada, Australia and New Zealand, so there is no shipping charge to pay.</li>\n<li><strong>Sales tax:</strong> Kin Print does not add sales tax at checkout.</li>\n<li><strong>Card details:</strong> handled by the payment provider, never stored by us and never requested by email.</li>\n</ul>\n</section>\n<h2>1. How to see the payment options for your order</h2>\n<p>Add your gift to the cart, write your personalisation in the order notes box, and continue to checkout. After you enter your contact and shipping details, the payment section lists the payment options available for your order. Choose one, follow the provider&#8217;s steps, and your order is placed once the payment is approved. You will receive an order confirmation email within a few minutes.</p>\n<p>If the payment section ever shows no option, or an option you expected is missing, please do not try to pay another way (for example by sending money directly). Email us instead and we will sort it out with you.</p>\n<h2>2. When you are charged</h2>\n<p>You are charged when you place the order. Because every item is personalised for you, we start preparing the order within our 1–3 business day window as soon as payment is confirmed. If you need to cancel, email us within 24 hours of ordering for a full refund within 7 days; see <a href=\"/cancel-change-order/\">Cancel or Change an Order</a>.</p>\n<h3>Pending payments</h3>\n<p>Some payment methods take a short time to confirm. While a payment is pending, your order shows &#8220;Pending payment&#8221; and is not yet in preparation. If the payment is not confirmed, the order is cancelled automatically and no money is taken. You can check an order&#8217;s status on our <a href=\"/order-tracking/\">Order Tracking</a> page.</p>\n<h2>3. Currency and price display</h2>\n<p>Every price on kinprint.shop is in US dollars. If you live in Canada, Australia or New Zealand, your bank or payment provider converts the amount into your currency when it processes the payment, using its own exchange rate, and may charge a foreign transaction fee under the terms of your card or account. That conversion and any fee are set by your provider, not by Kin Print. The amount we charge is always the USD total shown at checkout.</p>\n<table class=\"policy-table\">\n<caption>What makes up your Kin Print checkout total</caption>\n<thead>\n<tr>\n<th scope=\"col\">Line on checkout</th>\n<th scope=\"col\">What it includes</th>\n<th scope=\"col\">Typical amount</th>\n</tr>\n</thead>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td>Subtotal</td>\n<td>The price of each personalised item multiplied by its quantity</td>\n<td>As shown on product pages</td>\n</tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Discount</td>\n<td>A valid discount code or store credit code, if you entered one</td>\n<td>Only when a code applies</td>\n</tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Shipping</td>\n<td>Delivery to the United States, Canada, Australia or New Zealand</td>\n<td>Free, no minimum</td>\n</tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Sales tax</td>\n<td>Kin Print does not add sales tax at checkout</td>\n<td>Not charged by us</td>\n</tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Total</td>\n<td>The amount charged in USD when you place the order</td>\n<td>Subtotal minus any discount</td>\n</tr>\n</tbody>\n</table>\n<h2>4. Import charges on international deliveries</h2>\n<p>Orders ship from the USA. For deliveries to Canada, Australia and New Zealand, the destination country may charge import duties, taxes or customs fees under its own rules. These are not part of our checkout total, are not collected by Kin Print, and are paid by the recipient to the carrier or customs service if they apply. Our <a href=\"/shipping-delivery/\">Shipping &amp; Delivery</a> page explains this in more detail.</p>\n<h2>5. How your payment details are protected</h2>\n<p>Every page of kinprint.shop, including checkout, uses an encrypted HTTPS connection. Card and account details are entered into the payment provider&#8217;s secure systems and are processed by that provider under its own security standards and privacy policy. Kin Print never sees or stores your full card number or your payment account password. We only receive confirmation that the payment succeeded, the amount, and limited reference details we need for refunds and accounting.</p>\n<h3>What we will never ask for</h3>\n<ul>\n<li>We will never ask for your card number, security code or expiry date by email, chat or phone.</li>\n<li>We will never ask for the password to your payment account or your online banking.</li>\n<li>We will never ask you to pay by gift card, wire transfer or cryptocurrency outside our checkout.</li>\n</ul>\n<p>If you receive a message claiming to be from Kin Print that asks for any of these, do not reply. Forward it to <a href=\"mailto:support@kinprint.shop\">support@kinprint.shop</a> so we can warn other customers.</p>\n<h2>6. Declined or failed payments</h2>\n<p>A payment can be declined for many reasons: a typo in the billing address, a card that has expired, a daily limit, or your bank&#8217;s fraud protection being careful with an online purchase. If that happens:</p>\n<ol>\n<li>Check the billing name, address and ZIP or postal code match the details your bank holds.</li>\n<li>Try again once, or choose a different option shown at checkout.</li>\n<li>If it still fails, contact your bank or payment provider; they can see the reason and approve the payment.</li>\n<li>If you are charged but do not receive an order confirmation email within an hour, email us with the time of the payment and the amount. We will find the order or make sure the charge is released.</li>\n</ol>\n<h2>7. Discount codes and store credit</h2>\n<p>If you have a valid discount code or a Kin Print store credit code, enter it in the coupon field at checkout before you pay. The discount appears in your total immediately. Store credit issued after a return never expires and can be used on any product. Codes cannot be applied after an order is placed, so please enter them before completing payment. We only publish codes that are genuinely active; if a code you found elsewhere does not work, it is not one of ours.</p>\n<h2>8. Refunds go back the way you paid</h2>\n<p>Refunds are issued to the original payment method within 7 days of receiving your return, or within 7 days of a confirmed cancellation or approved claim. We cannot send a refund to a different card or account. Your provider may take a few further business days to show the refund on your statement. Full details are in our <a href=\"/refund-policy/\">Refund Policy</a>.</p>\n<h2>9. Paying for a gift for someone else</h2>\n<p>You can pay with your own payment method and ship the gift to the recipient&#8217;s address. The billing address must match the payment method; the shipping address can be anywhere in the United States, Canada, Australia or New Zealand. If the recipient later returns the gift, the refund goes to your payment method, or you can choose store credit and pass the code to them.</p>\n<h2>10. Business and family group orders</h2>\n<p>When a family splits the cost of a reunion order or a group gift for Grandma, one person places the order and pays the full amount; the family settles up privately. We cannot split one order across several payment methods. If it is easier, each person can place a separate order and write in the order notes which other order it belongs with, so we can try to ship them together.</p>\n<h2>11. Fraud prevention</h2>\n<p>To protect customers, orders may be checked automatically by the payment provider. Very occasionally we may email you to confirm an order before preparing it, for example if the billing and shipping countries differ and the order is unusually large. We never ask for card details during this check. If we cannot confirm an order, we cancel it and refund it in full.</p>\n<h2>12. Checkout, step by step</h2>\n<p>For anyone ordering online for the first time, perhaps a grandparent buying for a new grandchild, here is the whole checkout in order:</p>\n<ol>\n<li><strong>Cart:</strong> review the items, sizes and quantities. Enter a discount or store credit code here or at checkout if you have one.</li>\n<li><strong>Contact details:</strong> enter your email address. This is where the order confirmation, shipping link and any questions from us will go, so check it carefully.</li>\n<li><strong>Billing details:</strong> your name and the address your bank has on file for the payment method you will use.</li>\n<li><strong>Shipping address:</strong> tick the option to ship to a different address if the gift goes straight to the recipient, then enter their full address.</li>\n<li><strong>Order notes:</strong> write the personalisation for each item, one line per item, for example &#8220;Mug 11 oz: Nana est. 2021&#8221;. Add &#8220;photo by email&#8221; if a photo is needed.</li>\n<li><strong>Payment:</strong> choose one of the options shown and complete the provider&#8217;s steps.</li>\n<li><strong>Confirmation:</strong> you see a thank-you page and receive the confirmation email. Read your personalisation in it once more; you have 24 hours to correct anything.</li>\n</ol>\n<h2>13. Receipts and order records</h2>\n<p>Your order confirmation email is your receipt. It lists each item, the personalisation from your order notes, the shipping address and the total charged in USD. If you created an account, the same details are available under My Account at any time. If you need the receipt re-sent, for example to claim a gift as a business expense or to share with family members who chipped in, email us with the order number and we will send it again to the address on the order.</p>\n<h2>14. Staying safe when you shop online</h2>\n<ul>\n<li>Check that the address bar shows kinprint.shop and a padlock before entering any details.</li>\n<li>Use a strong, unique password if you create an account, and do not share it.</li>\n<li>Be wary of emails, texts or social media messages offering Kin Print deals that ask you to pay outside our checkout; they are not from us.</li>\n<li>Keep your order confirmation email until the gift has arrived and any return is complete.</li>\n</ul>\n<h2>15. Why we do not show payment logos</h2>\n<p>Many shops display a row of card and wallet logos in their footer. We only show a payment brand once that method is connected and tested on our checkout, so you never see a logo for something you cannot actually use. Until then, the checkout payment step is the single source of truth for how you can pay, and this page will be updated with the details of each method as it goes live.</p>\n<h2>16. Payment questions</h2>\n<p>Email <a href=\"mailto:support@kinprint.shop\">support@kinprint.shop</a> with your order number (if you have one) and a short description of the problem, or use the <a href=\"/submit-ticket/\">Submit a Ticket</a> page. We reply within 24 hours on business days.
