Payments

The most secure and most widely used payment methods

Credit & debit cards

We accept payments with all major cards (Visa, Mastercard, American Express and more). Payment is taken in full at the time you place your order.

We use 3D Secure strong authentication to secure purchases, which means a verification request will be sent to your smartphone by SMS or through your banking app to complete the transaction. This step has been mandatory in France since the 2019 PSD2 directive and protects your account.

If you don't receive a code or an authentication request, check that you have network coverage and that airplane mode is off, then try the transaction again. If the problem persists, contact your bank to activate 3D Secure.

PayPal & 4x interest-frees

We accept PayPal payments both in full and in 4 interest-free instalments. Payment in 4 instalments is available from €30 and only for PayPal accounts registered in France.

For payments in 4 instalments, the first instalment is charged when you place your order and the 3 remaining ones are taken 30, 60 and 90 days later. For example, for a €100 order placed on 20 February, €25 is charged immediately at checkout, then €25 on 20 March, €25 on 20 April and finally €25 on 20 May to settle the balance.

Payment in 4 instalments is a PayPal service with no additional fees. PayPal reviews and approves the instalment request within seconds.

This payment option is available on purchases between €30 and €2,000.

Early repayment is possible at any time at no extra cost.

You can easily view your past and upcoming instalments and their amounts in your PayPal account.

Alma 3x & 4x interest-free

Pay in 3 or 4 interest-free instalments with Alma. The first instalment is charged when you place your order and the remaining ones 30, 60 and 90 days later (for 4x).

For the same €120 order in 4 instalments, also placed on 20 February, €30 is charged immediately at checkout, then €30 on 20 March, €30 on 20 April and finally €30 on 20 May to settle the balance.
