Does it matter if I pay online at checkout or pay on delivery?

We go all-out to make shopping online with us as stress-free and convenient as possible and one of the ways we enjoy to do this is by giving you the choice of how to pay for your order. 

Paying Online at Checkout: When you pay online at checkout, Techmall/MasterCard holds your payment (temporarily) & we don’t release it to the seller until you have had a chance to bring up any issues. By paying with ATM/Debit card, or internet banking, Techmall can protect you 100% with our Buyer Protection program. When you’re covered by our Buyer Protection program, you can shop with complete confidence and ultimate peace of mind: if something goes wrong, we help make it right with a refund, repair, or replacement.

Paying on Delivery: You can choose to Pay on Delivery (POD) in Lagos. If you are situated in any other state in the country, you simply pay the courier with cash or with your ATM/Debit card when your order is delivered. Please note that if you pay on delivery, Techmall may not be able to protect you under the Buyer Protection program since Techmall may not have the money paid. Please also note that, for deliveries over ₦100,000, you may only be able to pay with a POS machine on delivery. Finally, even if you choose POD, you may be required to prepay for orders over ₦200,000. 

 

Why can’t I see the option for Pay On Delivery at checkout?

It could be one of the few issues listed below:

1. Your total cart value is under ₦1,000.
2. Your delivery option (Location or Pickup Station) is not eligible for Pay On Delivery.
3. Pay on Delivery is currently disabled on your account.

Pay on delivery will be activated on your account when we are able to successfully deliver your next two orders.

 

Who do I complain to if I was flagged wrongly?
