From today VirtualAcorn customers will be able to order items on-line 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. Payment can be made using a wide variety of popular debit and credit cards as well as with PayPal. Customers can select the items(s) they require on screen, then arrange payment using a secure server. A receipt will be e-mailed to customers on completion of a transaction with the goods following by post. The system can handle orders from the both the UK and overseas and will automatically convert from local currencies into Pounds.
VirtualAcorn have taken this move after recent problems with the phone lines, which meant that some customers were unable to contact us to place orders. Visitors to the VirtualAcorn website will now see a "Checkout" button on most pages. This takes the user to the secure payments area. The specific product pages have also been updated to include "Add to Basket" buttons.
On-line ordering is in addition to orders being placed over the phone, by cheque, or by official order for recognised educational establishments.
