This website is a fully secured site using either Paypal Gateway payment system and or a Payment Gateway system offered by Messrs Acquiring Ltd. PayPal is the most preferred way to pay online because it's safer and faster. PayPal stores and safeguards your card and bank details, enabling you to pay online without entering your sensitive financial information every time you shop. You speed through checkout in just a few clicks, PayPal takes the payment from your card or bank directly, and your payment details are never shared on the internet. On the other-hand, the Payment Gateway by Messrs Acquiring Ltd allows you to use any major credit/debit card whilst still offering the full International safeguards for online payments.
