OctoInkjet is located and trades from the United Kingdom but we do our best to support International customers by making it as easy as possible for you to be able to view products and pay for orders in the more common currencies.
The following options are available to simplify your browsing experience and minimise fees when you purchase from OctoInkjet.

Selecting Payment Currency
 | You can select the currency you wish to pay in by locating and clicking on the most appropriate flag in the top-right area of your store (see image, left). |
Making a non-GBP payment
The process of paying for an order in one of the accepted currencies (see table above) is as follows:
- Visit your cart
- Check the currency viewed and adjust as required
- Select and add your order items to the cart as normal
- During checkout, select the appropriate payment option:
- “Credit/Debit Card (£, Euro, US$)“
- “PayPal (£/€/$)“
- “Bank/Wire transfer (£, Euro, US$)” – See below
- Complete payment information as normal
Online/Immediate Payment Options
Credit/Debit Card
Paying in your own currency (if available) will help reduce the charges normally associated with foreign currency transactions.
Note: Some banks and card issuers will apply fees/charges for “Cross-border” / “International” transactions so please check with your bank/card-issuer before placing an order if you have any qustions about what charges may be applied.
Paypal
We are able to accept all our displayed currencies as payments using Paypal via the standard checkout process (not Paypal Express).
Offline/Other Payment Options
All other payment options or currencies must be paid in Pounds Sterling (GBP) because of the problems associated with tracking currency exchange rates and other administrative bookkeeping.
To be clear these payment methods all require payment to be made in Pounds Sterling (GBP)
- Bank Transfer (SEPA/Swift/IBAN/Transferwise)
- Transferwise
Note: Because of the way International payment clearing works, some International transactions will be accepted but flagged for manual verification. This means that the payment is held until the payment details can be checked, sometimes requiring direct contact with the customer to verify identity.
Whilst this can be an inconvenience, the issue of fraud is one that affects both customers and businesses so these measures are designed to protect both parties as much as humanly possible. Your patience, in instances like this, is appreciated.
