Payment Policy
Last updated: August 2026
This Payment Policy explains how payments are handled when purchasing from Welby Studio, operated by Welby Studio International Limited.
1. Accepted Payment Methods
Welby Studio offers secure and convenient payment options through our online store.
Available payment methods may include:
- Visa
- Mastercard
- American Express
- Apple Pay
- Google Pay
- PayPal
- Afterpay or other approved buy-now-pay-later services
- Other payment methods displayed at checkout
The specific payment options available may vary depending on your location, device, order and the payment services available through our store.
The payment methods displayed at checkout are the payment methods currently available for your order.
2. Secure Payment Processing
Protecting customer payment information is important to Welby Studio.
Payments made through our online store are processed using established third-party payment providers and secure payment technology.
Sensitive payment information is transmitted through the applicable payment provider’s secure payment systems.
Welby Studio does not require customers to provide payment information by email or other unsecured communication methods.
Where payment information is processed directly by our third-party payment providers, Welby Studio does not directly store customers’ complete credit or debit card details.
3. Payment Authorisation
When you place an order, your selected payment provider may perform an authorisation or verification process before the payment is approved.
An order will not normally proceed to fulfilment until payment has been successfully authorised or otherwise confirmed.
If a payment is declined, you may need to contact your bank, card issuer or payment provider or select another available payment method.
4. Payment Currency
Prices and payment currency will be displayed on the Welby Studio website and during checkout.
For customers purchasing through our Australian store, prices will generally be displayed in Australian dollars (AUD) unless otherwise stated.
If your payment account or card is denominated in another currency, your bank or payment provider may apply currency conversion rates or fees. These charges are determined by the relevant financial institution or payment provider and are outside Welby Studio’s control.
5. Payment Confirmation
After a successful purchase, you will normally receive an order confirmation electronically.
Please check your order confirmation carefully and contact us promptly if you believe there is an error with your order or payment.
6. Failed or Declined Payments
Payments may occasionally be declined or fail for reasons including:
- insufficient funds;
- incorrect payment information;
- card restrictions;
- security or fraud-prevention checks;
- payment-provider restrictions; or
- technical issues.
Welby Studio does not control approval decisions made by banks, card issuers or independent payment providers.
If your payment is unsuccessful, you may attempt the transaction again or select another payment method available at checkout.
7. Fraud Prevention and Verification
To help protect our customers and business from fraudulent or unauthorised transactions, orders may be subject to payment and security verification.
In certain circumstances, we or our payment providers may request additional information reasonably necessary to verify an order or payment.
We reserve the right to hold, decline or cancel an order where we reasonably suspect fraudulent, unauthorised or unlawful activity.
If an order is cancelled after payment has been successfully collected, the applicable amount will be refunded in accordance with our policies.
8. Buy Now, Pay Later Services
Where a buy-now-pay-later service such as Afterpay is available, that payment arrangement is provided by the relevant third-party provider.
Eligibility, approval, repayment schedules, fees and other conditions associated with these services are determined by the relevant provider and are subject to its terms and conditions.
Welby Studio does not determine whether a customer is approved for a third-party financing or buy-now-pay-later service.
9. Refunds
Approved refunds will generally be returned to the original payment method used for the purchase.
After Welby Studio processes a refund, the time required for the funds to appear in your account may vary depending on your bank, card issuer or payment provider.
For information about eligibility for refunds and returns, please refer to our Returns & Refund Policy.
10. Payment Security
Welby Studio takes reasonable measures to maintain a secure online purchasing environment and works with established ecommerce and payment providers to process transactions.
However, no method of electronic transmission or payment processing can be guaranteed to be completely risk-free.
Customers should take reasonable precautions to protect their payment accounts, passwords and devices and should contact their bank or payment provider immediately if they suspect unauthorised activity.
11. Unauthorised Transactions
If you believe your payment method has been used without your permission, please contact your bank or payment provider immediately.
You may also contact Welby Studio customer support regarding an order that you believe was placed fraudulently using your details.
12. Changes to This Payment Policy
We may update this Payment Policy from time to time to reflect changes to our payment methods, providers, business operations or legal requirements.
The current version will be published on our website with the applicable “Last updated” date.
