# What payment methods are accepted?

On Alberoshop.it you can purchase in a simple, secure and flexible way thanks to several certified payment methods.
Every transaction is protected according to the highest security standards.

## Cards and digital payments

You can pay with:
- Credit and debit cards (Visa, Mastercard, American Express, Postepay and cards enabled online)
- PayPal
- Apple Pay
- Google Pay
- Satispay

All card payments are processed through secure and certified circuits.

## Bank transfer

If you prefer, you can choose bank transfer directly during checkout. At the end of the order you will find:
- amount to pay
- bank details
- payment reference to use

Once payment is received we will proceed with processing the order.

## Interest-free instalment payment

With Scalapay you can split your purchase into 3 monthly instalments with no extra costs.

How it works:
1. Select Scalapay at checkout
2. Quick registration with immediate approval
3. The amount is divided into three monthly instalments

If instalments are paid by the due dates, there is no interest.

## Payment security

Your data protection is our priority.
All transactions go through certified platforms like PayPal and HiPay.
Alberoshop.it does not store or directly manage card payment data.
All sensitive pages are protected by secure HTTPS connection.

## Why we don't accept cash on delivery (COD)?

We have chosen not to use COD in order to offer a safer and more efficient service.
The main reasons are:
- high number of unjustified package refusals
- very high logistics costs, especially for fragile products
- greater protection for customers and companies through traceable payments

Today digital methods like PayPal, cards and Scalapay offer superior protection.
