 | How do I know my credit card information is safe and secure using the internet? |
|
| We are very mindful of your concern and take great precautions to ensure your personal or any unauthorized person does not view financial information. We use a “secure server”, which means that all the personal information you enter is transmitted on a “private” server (as opposed to other pages on the internet, which are public). There are really two ways to tell if you are using what is called a “secure server”. One way to tell if a web page is secure is to look for the “lock” symbol on the bottom right corner of the web page WHILE you are entering your credit card information. Another way to tell is to look for the letter “s” after the “http” in the address bar at the top of the web page. The “s” stands for “secure”. |
| Can you make any changes to the cards on your site? |
|
| YES!! Because we design all of our own cards, we can make changes to colors and images. We can add or remove images, change the colors of the borders, or make the skin tone darker or lighter. We do sometimes require a minimum order of 100 cards to make changes to the images. Please call our toll free number,
1-866-733-0247
, and ask for our Graphic Arts Department to discuss your particular request. Special requests will usually NOT delay your order. |
| Can your graphic artists design a card if I do not see what I am looking for online? |
|
| Yes, our graphic artists can create an original design using your ideas. There is a minimum order of 100 cards for this service, and we ask that you place the order prior to us sending you a proof of the created the design. Because of the time and effort that will be dedicated to creating your original design, we guarantee that you will be satisfied with the final result. We will make changes until your design meets your expectations and you approve the proof! |
 | Will I receive a proof of my order? If so, When? |
|
| Yes, you will receive an email proof of your order with instructions of how to access your proof via the internet. Your personalized proof will be sent to you within ONE hour after placing your order during business hours Monday through Friday. If you place your order after business hours or on a weekend or holiday, you will receive an email proof the next business day.
