1. Our Payment Gateway: Paystack
At Zesintu Herbal Products, your security and trust are paramount. We do not process or store your sensitive payment information on our servers. All online payments are securely handled through Paystack, a trusted payment gateway used by businesses in South Africa.
2. How Your Payment is Processed Securely
When you proceed to checkout, you will be redirected to Paystack’s secure payment page. There, you can safely enter your details and choose from supported payment methods. Your payment information is processed within Paystack’s secure environment, and you will be redirected back to our website once the transaction is complete.
3. Accepted Payment Methods
Via Paystack (South Africa), we accept the following payment options (as available at checkout):
-
Credit & Debit Cards (e.g., Visa, Mastercard; Paystack also supports American Express for businesses in South Africa)
-
EFT (Electronic Funds Transfer) (enabled via Paystack’s integration with Ozow)
