At Sailing Equipment Store, we understand that getting your gear quickly and securely is as important as choosing the right equipment for your adventures. That’s why we’ve partnered with trusted payment providers to offer you multiple safe and convenient ways to complete your purchase.

Fair Winds Promise: We treat your payment security with the same seriousness we apply to sailing safety. All transactions are encrypted, and we never store your full payment details on our servers.

Accepted Payment Methods

Credit & Debit Cards

Visa MasterCard JCB

We accept all major credit cards for your convenience. Our payment gateway uses 256-bit SSL encryption – the same security standard used by banks – to protect your transaction. Whether you’re purchasing dinghy wetsuits or kids’ buoyancy aids, your card details remain secure.

PayPal

PayPal

For sailors who prefer an extra layer of security, we accept PayPal. This allows you to checkout without directly sharing your financial information with us. It’s particularly popular with our international customers purchasing technical dinghy clothing or sailing harnesses.

  • No Stored Data: We never keep your full payment details after transaction completion
  • Fraud Protection: All transactions are monitored for suspicious activity
  • Currency Flexibility: Automatic currency conversion for international orders

Special Notes for International Customers

While we ship worldwide (except some Asian countries and remote regions), please note:

  • All transactions are processed in USD
  • Your bank may apply foreign transaction fees
  • PayPal often offers favorable exchange rates

Need Help? Our crew is always ready to assist with payment questions at [email protected]. We typically respond within 2-4 hours during business hours (EST).

Just like choosing the right dinghy helmet or hiking shorts, selecting a secure payment method is crucial for peace of mind. We’re committed to making your checkout process as smooth as sailing with the wind at your back!

Fair winds and following seas,
