At belveracircle, we are committed to making your eyewear shopping experience smooth, secure, and convenient. This Payment Methods page explains the payment options available on belveracircle.shop, the security measures we use to protect your financial data, our billing process, and how we handle refunds and failed transactions. This page forms part of our Terms of Service and complies with the Reserve Bank of United Kingdom (RBI) guidelines, the Payment and Settlement Systems Act, 2007, and the Consumer Protection (E-Commerce) Rules, 2020.

1. Payment Highlights

2. Currency

All prices displayed on belveracircle.shop are in Indian Rupees (GBP / ₹). We do not support multi-currency checkout. If you are paying with an international card or a non-GBP PayPal account, your bank or PayPal will apply its own currency conversion rate and may charge a foreign-transaction fee — these charges are determined by your card issuer or PayPal and are beyond our control.

3. Accepted Payment Methods

We accept the following three payment methods on belveracircle.shop. We do not accept any other payment option, including UPI, net banking, mobile wallets, Cash on Delivery (COD), EMI, BNPL, cryptocurrency, cheques, or bank transfers.

3.1 Visa

We accept all Visa credit and debit cards, including Visa Classic, Visa Gold, Visa Platinum, Visa Signature, Visa Infinite, and Visa Business cards, issued anywhere in the world. All Visa transactions are protected with 3D Secure / Verified by Visa authentication and OTP verification as mandated by RBI for two-factor authentication.

3.2 MasterCard

We accept all MasterCard credit and debit cards, including MasterCard Standard, Gold, Platinum, Titanium, World, and World Elite, issued anywhere in the world. All MasterCard transactions are protected with MasterCard SecureCode / Identity Check and OTP verification as mandated by RBI.

3.3 PayPal

We accept payments through PayPal, one of the world’s most trusted online payment platforms. PayPal allows you to pay securely without sharing your card details directly with us. Key points:

  • You may pay using your PayPal balance or any card/bank account linked to your PayPal account.
  • PayPal handles its own currency conversion for non-GBP accounts at the prevailing PayPal exchange rate.
  • PayPal Buyer Protection may apply to eligible transactions, subject to PayPal’s own terms and conditions.
  • Refunds for PayPal orders are processed back to your PayPal account; the credit timeline depends on PayPal’s policies (typically 3–7 working days).

4. Payment Security

Your financial security is our highest priority. All payments on belveracircle.shop are processed through secure, RBI-authorised, third-party payment gateways with the following safeguards:

  • PCI-DSS Compliance: Our payment partners are certified under the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI-DSS) Level 1 — the highest security standard for card data.
  • SSL/TLS Encryption: Every page on which payment data is entered is secured with 256-bit SSL encryption, indicated by the padlock icon in your browser address bar.
  • Tokenization: Sensitive card data is tokenized in line with the RBI’s Card-on-File Tokenization (CoFT) mandate.
  • 3D Secure / OTP Verification: All Visa and MasterCard transactions require additional authentication through OTP, biometric, or 3D Secure protocols as mandated by RBI.
  • PayPal Security: PayPal transactions are protected by PayPal’s own multi-layer fraud prevention and buyer-protection systems.
  • No Card Storage: does NOT store your complete card number, CVV, expiry date, or PIN on our servers. We will never ask you to share these details over email, phone, or social media.

5. Payment Gateway Partners

We work with reputed RBI-authorised payment service providers to process Visa and MasterCard transactions securely. PayPal transactions are processed directly through PayPal’s secure platform. The actual gateway routing your transaction may be displayed at the time of payment.

6. GST and Taxes

  • All applicable Goods and Services Tax (GST) is charged in accordance with the prevailing rates set by the Government of United Kingdom.
  • GST is calculated and clearly displayed in the order summary before payment is made.
  • A valid GST tax invoice will be issued and emailed to you along with your shipment.
  • For GST-registered customers, you may provide your GSTIN at checkout to receive a B2B tax invoice (where supported).
  • No hidden taxes or surcharges will be added after checkout.

7. Billing & Invoicing

  • Payment is captured at the time of order placement.
  • Bank/credit card statements will reflect the descriptor “” or the registered name of our payment gateway / PayPal partner.
  • A tax invoice is automatically generated upon order confirmation and sent to your registered email address.
  • Your billing address must match the address registered with your card issuer or PayPal account for security purposes; mismatches may cause the transaction to be flagged or declined.

8. Failed, Declined, or Pending Transactions

Sometimes payments fail or remain pending due to network issues, bank-side declines, insufficient funds, OTP timeout, or temporary gateway downtime. In such cases:

  • Order Not Confirmed: If the payment fails, your order will not be created. You may retry payment using the same or a different supported method (Visa, MasterCard, or PayPal).
  • Amount Deducted but Order Not Confirmed: If money is debited but you do not see an order confirmation, do not worry. As per RBI guidelines, the bank/gateway will auto-reverse the amount within 7–10 working days to the original payment method. PayPal-side reversals are typically faster (1–3 working days).
  • Stuck Payment: If you do not see the refund within the timeframe above, please email us at [email protected] with the subject “Payment Issue — [Transaction Reference]” along with: full name, registered email, the cart amount, transaction date/time, and transaction/UTR/PayPal reference. We will coordinate with our gateway partner to trace and resolve the issue.
  • Response Time: Payment-related emails are addressed within 24 working hours, Monday to Friday (excluding public holidays).

9. Fraud Prevention and Order Verification

reserves the right to:

  • Hold, review, or cancel any transaction or order that appears suspicious, unauthorised, or inconsistent with normal customer behaviour;
  • Request additional identity or address verification (e.g., a confirmation email reply, a phone callback, or a photo ID) before dispatching high-value orders;
  • Decline orders placed from blacklisted IPs, flagged accounts, or via known fraudulent payment patterns;
  • Report suspected fraud to the appropriate banking authority, payment gateway partner, PayPal, or law enforcement.

If your order is held for verification, we will contact you by email within 24 working hours. Orders not verified within 3 working days may be cancelled, and any amount paid will be refunded in full.

10. Refund Payment Methods

When a refund is approved, it is processed to the original payment method used at the time of purchase, in line with RBI guidelines. Specifically:

  • Visa Card: Refunded to the same Visa card. Typically reflects within 7–10 working days, depending on your card issuer.
  • MasterCard: Refunded to the same MasterCard. Typically reflects within 7–10 working days, depending on your card issuer.
  • PayPal: Refunded back to your PayPal account or the original funding source linked to PayPal. Typically reflects within 3–7 working days, depending on PayPal’s policies.
  • Store Credit Option: You may optionally choose to receive your refund as store credit valid for 12 months — instant credit, usable on any future purchase.

11. What We Do NOT Store

For your security, does not store any of the following on our servers:

  • Full credit/debit card numbers
  • Card Verification Value (CVV/CVC)
  • Card expiry dates
  • 3D Secure passwords or ATM PINs
  • PayPal login credentials or PayPal passwords

All sensitive payment data is processed and stored exclusively by RBI-authorised, PCI-DSS-compliant payment gateway partners and by PayPal directly.

13. Chargebacks and Payment Disputes

If you wish to raise a dispute regarding a charge, please first email us at [email protected] with subject “Payment Dispute — [Order Number]”. We strive to resolve disputes amicably within 15 days.

Fraudulent or unjustified chargebacks may be contested with the help of our payment gateway partners and reported to relevant authorities.

14. Pricing Accuracy
