4- When you pay for your treatment by card


 

When you pay for your treatment in the centre by card we use a system called izettle. We are able to print off a report of the treatments that have been paid for via our i zettle system. This report simply states the amount of card payments we received and the amount but it does not state your card details. We do not have access to or store your card details anywhere in our business. Payments are never taken via the telephone and are therefore never recorded anywhere. Receipts for treatments can always be provided if requested.

More info about how izettle processes contact details of card holders can be read here on their website.
