If you are not able to pay by card it is possible to pay by cheque. Please, phone +44 (0) 1743 812 200 and speak to one of our team.

Verified by Visa / MasterCard Secure Code

WHAT IS IT?

www.shop.wf-education.com/dnt participates in Verified by Visa and MasterCard Secure Code for added online payment security. These services are offered by Visa and MasterCard, in association with the bank that has issued your credit/debit card. It is aimed at protecting your details when shopping online by ensuring your card is not being used by someone else.

WHAT WILL I SEE?

If your card qualifies and you haven't yet registered, simply follow the on-screen instructions. This process will create an online code (different to your card PIN - an online PIN equivalent) for use on www.shop.wf-education.com/dnt and other participating websites.

This is a completely secure process. The information you provide is completely private, will only be visible to you and your card issuer, and would never be shared with other parties.

If you're unsure about this new service, you may be able to complete your order without registering but your card issuer will eventually require you to register to continue shopping online.

NEED ASSISTANCE?

If you would like to learn more about these services or have any difficulty with the process, please contact your card issuer who should be able to assist you. Alternatively, you can call our Customer Support team at +44 (0) 1743 812 200 or email [email protected]

How to minimise the risk of authorisation being refused by your card issuer:

When pre-ordering items, please ensure the expiry date of your card is after the expected release date for your item.

Ensure your card is registered to the billing address.

Enrol your card in an authentication scheme (Verified by Visa or MasterCard Secure) to assist with the speedy processing of your order.

If you place a high-value order we suggest you advise the bank beforehand.

If your bank calls you to do a security check, please call us to let us know and we will retry for authorisation.

UNACCEPTED CARD DETAILS

Check that the invoice address is the same as the address where the card is registered - the one on your statements and that you have the necessary funds available (note that payment is taken straight away).

If you have checked these possibilities and are still experiencing problems in completing your order, please, email [email protected] or contact +44 (0) 1743 812 200.

ORDER COMPLETE

After you have finished your selection, click on 'Checkout' and you will be asked for a few details that we need to be able to complete the order.

Once you have submitted your order the next screen you will see is your order confirmation. Please make a note of your reference number which you will need to quote in any communication with us. The details of your order are available for future reference and can be accessed from the My Account page. You will also receive an order confirmation by email.

In the unlikely event that any item is back-ordered, you will be notified in advance and given the option to substitute or cancel and you will not be charged until the goods are available.

Orders can be posted, faxed, telephoned or emailed to [email protected]

Setting up an Account

SETTING UP A CREDIT ACCOUNT OR PAYMENT METHODS

If you have registered as a Private Customer, you are not able to open a credit account and must pay by credit card.

If you are buying resources on behalf of a Local Authority backed school, charity, or business, then it's likely that you can set up your account on credit terms (30 days from the date of invoice).

HOW TO OPEN A CREDIT ACCOUNT

After completing your details we'll send you an email confirming your *registration approval. If you have registered as a corporation or charity, you will then need to contact our Finance Department directly at +44 (0) 1743 812 200.

They will need to conduct a credit risk assessment on your establishment, so please have your Company Registration number or Charity number ready. A decision will be made immediately. In the meantime, you're free to browse and store items in your basket while waiting for your account confirmation, but you won't be able to complete an order until your account has been activated unless you pay by credit card.
