FAQ

How do I create an account?

Simply click on “Register” at the top right of the main page then complete the required fields on the Register page. If you have never purchased from us before, you must register with us to place an order. If you already have items in your cart and are ready to complete your order, click on the “Checkout” button, part of the checkout process is to login to your current account or tick the box for “create an account” if you do not have an account with us.

Do you provide an invoice for my order?

Yes. Once we have received an order and payment has been cleared, the invoice will be sent to you via email.

How do I know if my payment has been received?

Once your payment has been received, we will send you a notification email to inform you about the order. You can also visit designerchic.co.uk and log into your customer account to check the order status at any time. If designerchic.co.uk has received payment, the order status will show “Processing”.

What is Paypal?

PayPal is a secure and trustworthy payment processing service which allows you to shop online. PayPal can be used to purchase items by Credit Card (Visa, Mastercard, Discover, and American Express), Debit Card, or E-Check (i.e. using your regular Bank Account). Designerchic.co.uk cannot see your card number as it is securely encrypted through PayPal’s server. This limits the risk of unauthorised use and access.

What is Stripe?

Stripe is an alternative payment processor gateway to paypal that is trusted by thousands of businesses around the globe, and accepts most credit and debit cards.  The payment processor you’ll be using automatically implements Stripe JS, a killer feature by Stripe, to tokenize payments to keep card data secure.  When you use Stripe.js on the SSL website, the credit card data entered into your payment form is never sent to the merchant server at Designer Chic. Instead, the encrypted secure data is sent directly to Stripe.
