Terms & Conditions

SECURITY

We utilise one of the most secure transaction channels available in the world today.

Our Ecommerce application includes the following security features:
  • We use Spotify, Paypal and Stripe as our credit card payment gateway.
  • All browsers are required to use a minimum of 40-bit SSL (Secure Socket Layer) technology (This means that there is no way to bypass the security systems).
  • Digital certification to verify integrity and authenticity from this website.
  • Encrypted card details are sent with your order to our accounts department to be processed. Your card details are erased from record as soon as your order is processed. This eliminates the risk of your credit card details being captured and used by unauthorized people.
  • Each order is checked, one by one by our accounts department before processing.. This reduces the possibility of credit card fraud.
What does this mean?
This means that when you order hampers from our website, you can rest assured that the highest security checks have been put in place to make sure that your details will not fall into the wrong hands.
 

RETURNS

Deliveries Returned to Us
  • Occasionally a hamper will be returned to us for one of the following reasons:

              –  a card was left but the recipient did not pick the package up from the post office or newsagent
              –  the recipient is not known at that address or has moved
              –  address details are incorrect or insufficient

  • An applicable re-delivery fee will be passed on to you to facilitate the delivery of the hamper to the same or an alternative address
