Payment options
What are my online payment options?
Our online payment options include:
- Credit card: Visa or MasterCard
- Debit card: Visa or MasterCard
- Electronic funds transfer: (EFT) via PayU EFT Pro
I do not have a credit card; can I still shop online at Clicks?
Yes. Simply choose the EFT payment option and make a payment using your existing internet banking facility with our PayU EFT Pro payment option.
How does PayU EFT Pro work?
PayU EFT Pro is an instant electronic funds transfer (EFT) payment service that allows you to pay online directly using your existing internet banking facility. Transfers are secure and payments are instant. EFTs can be made using the following banks: ABSA, FNB, Nedbank, Capitec and Standard Bank.
(Investec coming soon)
PayU EFT Pro is perfect for shoppers who don't have a credit card to shop online with, because this payment solution enables you to pay for goods by electronically transferring funds using internet banking.
3D Secure
Is my credit card data safe?
Clicks subscribes to the highest security and encryption standards, allowing our customers to shop with absolute peace of mind!
Payments are managed through our secure payments provider PayU, who uses the necessary physical, electronic and administrative safeguards to ensure all online transactions are safe and secure.
3D Secure is an added layer of security required for all Clicks online transactions to ensure that they are safe and secure. It is mandated by the Card Associations and managed by South African banks. MasterCard uses a security product called SecureCode. Visa uses a security product call Verified by Visa.
With 3D Secure, your online credit and debit card payment is redirected to your bank's 3D Secure service (on your bank's website) to facilitate the authentication process for your online payment.
How do I know whether my credit card is activated for 3D Secure?
If your card has not yet been activated for 3D Secure, you should see a notification in the verification panel when paying by credit card.
MasterCard holders will be prompted to "Protect / Activate your MasterCard Online." Visa holders will be asked to "Activate Verified by Visa on your card."
