Effective Date: January 15, 2025

At Distinctive Watches, we are committed to providing a seamless and secure payment experience for all our customers. This Payment Policy outlines the accepted payment methods, payment security, and other important details regarding your transactions on our website, distinctivewatches.com.

1. Accepted Payment Methods

We offer several payment options to ensure convenience and security for our customers:

  • Credit and Debit Cards: We accept all major credit and debit cards, including:
    • Visa
    • MasterCard
    • American Express
    • Discover

2. Payment Authorization

By placing an order on distinctivewatches.com, you authorize Distinctive Watches to charge the full amount of your order, including product costs, applicable taxes, shipping fees, and any other charges, to the payment method you provide. Your payment will be processed immediately upon order confirmation.

3. Payment Security

We take your payment security seriously. Our website uses SSL encryption to protect all personal and payment information during transactions. Payments are processed through secure third-party payment gateways, and Distinctive Watches does not store your full payment details on our website.

While we make every effort to protect your data, no online transaction method can be 100% secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute protection against unauthorized access.

4. Billing Information

When placing an order, you must provide accurate and complete billing information, including your name, billing address, and payment details. It is important to ensure that all information is correct to avoid delays or issues with your order. Distinctive Watches is not responsible for delays caused by incorrect or incomplete billing details.

It is your responsibility to ensure that your billing information is accurate and up to date.

5. Order Confirmation

After successfully processing your payment, you will receive an order confirmation email that includes:

  • Order number
  • Items purchased
  • Total amount paid (including taxes and shipping charges)
  • Shipping address and selected shipping method

This email confirms that your order has been received and is being processed.

6. Payment Declines

If your payment is declined, we will notify you immediately. You may be required to update your payment information or choose an alternative payment method to complete your order. Your order will not be processed or shipped until payment has been successfully completed.

7. Fraud Prevention

To protect against fraudulent transactions, Distinctive Watches uses advanced fraud detection systems. If we detect any suspicious or unauthorized use of your payment method, we reserve the right to cancel or suspend your order. Additional verification may be required before processing your payment.

8. Sales Tax

Sales tax will be applied to your order based on your delivery address and the applicable sales tax rate. The final tax amount will be calculated and displayed during the checkout process, allowing you to review the total amount before finalizing your purchase.

9. Refunds

If you are eligible for a refund, the refund will be issued to your original payment method. For more details on our refund process, please refer to our Refund and Returns Policy.

10. Changes to This Payment Policy

We reserve the right to update or modify this Payment Policy at any time. Any changes will be reflected on this page with an updated “Effective Date.” We encourage you to review this policy periodically to stay informed about our payment practices.
