Wellness Warehouse Online Shopping FAQ's

Q. I am nervous about shopping with my credit card online. How safe is it?

There is no need to be concerned about using your credit card online. It

s very safe. The system we use is called MyGate. This is one of two secure online credit card platforms that have been approved by all banks. My Gate has a watertight level of security and operates behind an SSL (secure socket layer) Certificate. All your details entered on the payment page are encrypted and cannot be seen by anyone. Credit card details are completely confidential and safe. MyGate is fully PCI-Compliant which means they have gone through rigorous testing and certification to ensure information is not prone to attacks or theft.

Q. Is there any other way to make payment besides using a credit card?

The easiest and most efficient way is to pay with your credit card as your payment will reflect in our account immediately and we can process your order instantly. However, we also have an internet banking option available. This means you can pay via EFT and email proof of payment to onlineshop@wellnesswarehouse.com. The only drawback is that we have to wait until the payment reflects and, depending on who you bank with, this can take up to 3 days and only then we will be able to fill the order.

Q. Do you deliver anywhere in South Africa?

Yes. We deliver almost anywhere in South Africa using a courier company called Fedex. Delivery is straight to your door and is trackable, safe and efficient.

A list of areas and corresponding delivery prices is available upon checkout.

Q. Do you deliver to other countries outside of South Africa?

Yes, all countries outside of South Africa. International customers will be informed of the delivery charges after which they can continue with payment.

Q. How soon can I expect my order?

Two to 4 days from despatch depending on where you live. International customers, please wait up to 23 working days depending on customs. Central areas will be quicker than remote areas.
