At KidArtStand, we aim to provide a transparent and secure checkout experience for all our customers purchasing children’s creative furniture and learning easels. To ensure high payment success rates and reliable credit card processing, we accept only direct credit card payments.
We accept the following major credit cards for all transactions:
Visa
MasterCard
American Express
Discover
All payments and transaction totals are calculated and processed exclusively in United States Dollars (USD). If you are ordering from outside the United States (or using a card issued by a non-US financial institution), please note that your card issuer may apply currency conversion rates or international transaction fees. We do not accept personal checks, money orders, direct bank transfers, or Cash on Delivery (COD) payments.
Payment Security & PCI Compliance
We take the security of your payment details seriously. To prevent unauthorized access and secure your credit card details, our entire checkout infrastructure is built on modern security standards.
256-bit SSL Encryption: Our checkout process utilizes this technology to protect your sensitive data during transmission. This ensures that your cardholder details remain encrypted and private from the moment you enter them.
PCI-DSS Compliant: Our systems are fully compliant with the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard. We adhere to a strict zero-storage policy: your complete credit card numbers and security codes are never stored on our local servers or systems. All cardholder details are transmitted directly to our secure credit card processor.
Sales Tax
In compliance with state tax guidelines and remote seller laws across the United States, KidArtStand is registered to collect sales tax on orders shipped to states where we have tax obligations.
Our registration and tax administration are structured under the governing state laws of Wisconsin. For all shipments within Wisconsin and other applicable states, sales tax will be calculated dynamically based on your exact shipping destination. The applicable sales tax amount is shown clearly in your shopping cart before the final payment is submitted.
Billing, Taxes & $0 Hidden Fees
We are dedicated to honest pricing, ensuring that the price you see on the product page is exactly what you pay, with no unexpected surcharges at checkout. We offer a strict $0.00 transaction surcharge policy, meaning we never add hidden administrative or handling surcharges to your purchase.
All purchases are summarized clearly using the following transparent cost equation:
Product Price + Shipping Costs (if applicable) + Applicable Sales Tax = Final Total Cost
There are no dynamic checkout fees or credit card processing surcharges added to this equation.
Payment Processing & Fraud Prevention
Your payment card is authorized and charged at the exact time you complete the checkout process and click the “Place Order” button.
To ensure the safety of our customers and protect our store against unauthorized transactions, we utilize automated billing verification tools. Your billing postal code and street address must match the details on file with your card issuer. In cases where our card processor flags a transaction as high-risk due to billing address mismatches or foreign IP anomalies, we reserve the right to temporarily hold the order. In these situations, our customer support team (Help@kidartstand.com) will reach out to request cardholder verification before the order can be processed on the following business days.
