Why cards are processed through PayPal

All card payments on Radium Store are processed through PayPal’s payment gateway. This provides several benefits: Established security: PayPal has processed payments for over two decades and handles billions of dollars in transactions. Their security infrastructure is world-class. No card data on our servers: Your card information is entered directly into PayPal’s checkout, not on Radium Store. We never see, handle, or store your card details. Buyer protection: PayPal offers buyer protection programs that can help resolve disputes if issues arise. Wide card acceptance: PayPal accepts cards from most countries and handles currency conversion automatically.

​
Card security

When you enter your card details in PayPal’s checkout:
  1. You are on PayPal’s secure window (the checkout is PayPal-hosted)
  2. Your card information is encrypted and sent directly to PayPal
  3. PayPal processes the payment with your card issuer
  4. Radium Store receives only a confirmation that payment was successful
Radium Store never receives your card number, expiration date, or security code. We only receive a transaction ID confirming the payment was completed. See Payment security for detailed information about how your financial data is protected.

​
Processing time

Card payments through PayPal typically process within seconds. You see the result immediately after confirming payment on PayPal’s page.

​
Why cards may be declined

Cards can be declined for several reasons: Insufficient funds: The card does not have enough available credit or balance. Bank restrictions: Your bank may block transactions to PayPal or international transactions. Incorrect details: The card number, expiration date, or security code was entered incorrectly. Card not supported: Some card types or issuers may not be accepted by PayPal in certain regions. Fraud prevention: The bank flagged the transaction as potentially fraudulent.

​
If your card is declined

  1. Verify all card details are entered correctly
  2. Check with your bank if there are any holds or restrictions on your card — you may have to notify your bank about this transaction
  3. Try a different card
  4. Use an alternative payment method such as PayPal balance or UPI

​
Refunds

Refunds for card payments made through PayPal are returned to the original card. Processing time varies by bank but typically takes 5-10 business days to appear on your statement.
