At Akaltyn, we aim to make checkout simple, secure, and convenient for our customers. We currently accept payments through PayPal and Venmo for eligible purchases made through our online store.
This Payment Methods Policy explains the payment options currently available, how payments are processed, what customers should know before completing an order, and how payment-related issues, cancellations, and refunds are handled.
Please review this policy together with our Terms of Service, Shipping Policy, and Return & Refund Policy before placing an order.

Payment options displayed at checkout may depend on availability, eligibility, location, device, and the payment provider's requirements.
Akaltyn may add or remove payment methods in the future. The payment options available at the time of checkout are the options that can be used for that transaction.
2. PayPal
Akaltyn accepts PayPal for eligible purchases.
PayPal allows customers to complete an online purchase using payment methods supported within their PayPal account or through the payment options presented by PayPal at checkout.
When PayPal is selected during checkout, the customer may be redirected to or shown a PayPal payment interface to complete authorization.
The payment process may require customers to sign in to their PayPal account or provide information requested by PayPal.
PayPal independently processes payment information according to its own terms and privacy practices.
Akaltyn does not control PayPal's payment authorization procedures, account requirements, security systems, or transaction decisions.
3. Venmo
Akaltyn currently accepts Venmo for eligible purchases where Venmo is presented as an available payment option during checkout.
Venmo is a payment service provided by PayPal. Customers using Venmo may be required to authenticate their payment through the applicable Venmo or PayPal payment interface.
The availability of Venmo may depend on factors determined by the payment provider, including account eligibility, device, location, transaction type, or other requirements.
Customers are responsible for ensuring that their Venmo account is active and authorized to complete the transaction.

9. Payment Information and Security
When you use PayPal or Venmo, payment information is processed through the applicable payment provider.
Akaltyn does not require customers to send payment card numbers, account passwords, security codes, or other sensitive payment credentials to us by email.
Never send your PayPal or Venmo password, security code, authentication code, or other confidential account credentials to Akaltyn by email or through customer support.
If you receive a message requesting sensitive payment information while claiming to represent Akaltyn, do not provide the requested information until you have verified the communication.

Akaltyn is not responsible for unauthorized access to a customer's PayPal or Venmo account resulting from the customer's failure to protect their account credentials.

PayPal and Venmo are independent payment services.
When you use either payment method, your transaction may be subject to the payment provider's applicable terms, conditions, privacy policies, security procedures, and user requirements.
Akaltyn does not control:

- Payment provider verification procedures
- Payment provider transaction limits

If you experience an issue that is specifically related to your PayPal or Venmo account, you may need to contact the applicable payment provider directly.

Possible reasons include:
- Payment authorization failure
- Account restrictions
- Insufficient funds
- Security verification
- Incorrect information
- Payment provider service interruption
- Transaction limitations
- Technical issues
Akaltyn does not control the payment provider's decision to approve or decline a transaction.
If your payment fails, review the information displayed during checkout and follow any instructions provided by PayPal or Venmo.

- Relevant transaction information
Do not send your PayPal or Venmo password or other confidential account credentials.

A pending transaction may be related to payment provider authorization or processing procedures.
