PAYMENT:
Paypal Option – The Paypal invoicing/payment is our default setting. The payment is made through the Paypal invoice via your email address. In the interest of your privacy, Temporal Publishing processes all of its credit card transactions through Paypal. All credit card information is encrypted and handled by Paypal through industry-leading technology. Temporal Publishing does not handle any part of the payment process. You do not need to have a Paypal account to process a Paypal invoice. Simply click on a “Pay Invoice” button on the emailed invoice to process your payment with the credit card of your choice. Once your payment is submitted, we will fulfill your order within 24 hours. Shipping of your order will occur within 10 business days after fulfillment.
*A Paypal invoice allows only the original recipient of the invoice to make the payment. If the invoice is forwarded to another email other than the one the invoice was originally generated for, Paypal will not accept your payment. If the person who placed the order is not in charge of the payment, please provide the email address of the person who will process the Purchase Order.
Check/Money Order Option – The other option is to pay with a cashier’s check or money order. Please indicate this option under the Tax & Shipping section in the Purchase Form. You will still be emailed a Paypal invoice to review your order and other information. This option requires a 10-day hold on your order to allow for receipt and clearing of the payment. Returned checks are subject to a $25.00 fee. Please submit payments in full.
International Sales – please refer to the section of Handling Fee.
