      What do I do if my credit card is not accepted?

      There are several reasons why your credit card may not be accepted. We suggest you try the following:

      • Verify your credit card number and expiration date.
      • Confirm you are using your credit and not your debit card.
      • Check that you haven't exceeded your transaction limit.
      • If, after exploring these possible causes, your card is still not accepted, either use an alternate card or contact your financial institution.

      Can I call to give you my credit card information over the phone?

      • No, all credit card information must come through the online credit card payment system.

      DISCOUNTS

      Do you offer discounts on bulk purchases?

      • At this time, we do not offer discounts on bulk purchases.

      PAYMENTS

      What are your payment terms?

      • Payment is required prior to shipment of your order.

      Are my payment details/data secure?

      • Your transaction and payment details are handled directly by Stripe, our payment service provider, with secure encryption and under strict banking standards.
      • Your credit card details are sent directly to the bank and cannot be read or accessed by any parties, including Bhakti Event GmbH.

      How will I know that you have received my payment?

      • You will receive an invoice by email as soon as your payment is confirmed by Stripe, our payment service provider.

      How do I view and download my invoices?

      • Additionally, you can retrieve invoices from your Bhakti ID - My Orders.

      FEES

      Is VAT charged to my order?

      • Countries inside the European Union are charged VAT according to their country tax regulations.
      • Countries outside the European Union are not charged VAT.

      Are there any additional fees? 

      • For deliveries from Germany to countries outside the European Union, customs or import charges are paid upon arrival of the shipment in the destination country. This is over and above the standard import duties.
      • Charges for customs clearance (and its handling, e.g. by a forwarding agency) are the responsibility of the customer. We do not have any influence on these charges and cannot predict the amount.
      • For more information about this, please contact your local customs office.
