Rickel’s Mercantile uses secure third-party payment providers. A method is available for an order only when it appears as an active option at checkout.
Payment methods
The checkout is designed to support the same provider set used by The Boston Gift Shop:
- Credit and debit cards through Stripe
- PayPal
- Amazon Pay, when eligible and displayed
- Link, when eligible and displayed
- Klarna, when eligible and displayed
- Affirm, when eligible and displayed
- Apple Pay and Google Pay through Stripe on eligible devices, browsers, and orders
Provider, device, browser, customer eligibility, order amount, currency, and destination can affect which methods appear. The checkout display controls; a method is not promised if it is not shown for the specific order.
Currency, shipping, tax, and total
Website prices and order totals are displayed and processed in United States Dollars (USD) unless checkout clearly states otherwise. Product prices, available shipping charges, applicable taxes, discounts, and the final order total are shown before submission.
Authorization and charge timing
Submitting an order authorizes the selected provider to process the displayed amount. A payment may be authorized or captured when the order is placed. Temporary authorization holds, decline reasons, installment eligibility, and posting times are controlled by the card issuer or payment provider.
Payment security
Payments are processed through the enabled Stripe and PayPal integrations and their security controls. Rickel’s Mercantile does not intentionally store full payment-card numbers on the website server. Never send a complete card number, password, or security code by email or phone.
Declined, duplicate, or failed payments
If payment is declined, verify billing details, available funds, and provider notices. Do not repeat payment attempts if multiple pending authorizations appear. Contact the financial institution first, then contact us with the order email and approximate time of the attempt.
Pricing corrections and fraud review
We may correct an obvious pricing, inventory, or technical error before fulfillment. We may hold, decline, or cancel an order that cannot be verified or appears unauthorized. If a captured payment is canceled, it is returned to the original payment method according to provider processing times.
