Payment Methods

What payment methods are accepted?

The Bow Tie Duck accepts Paypal, Credit Cards ( Visa, Mastercard, Maestro & American Express ), Bank Cash Transfer to Security Bank and Union Bank.

Why can’t I pay for my order using Cash-On-Delivery?

Due to the rarity to source our items, they will always have limited stocks therefore no item or order can be reserved for too long. We adopt a first pay, first served policy for all items and they can only be cleared for release and delivery once paid upfront.

How long will the order be placed on hold when I choose the Bank Cash Transfer option?

Once you place your order on our website, you will be given until 2PM of the next business day to settle your Bank Cash Transfer payment before we release the item under your account and back to our store. Don’t forget to send the proof of payment to our email address at hello at bowtieduck.com as soon as you send the payment.

Do you accept Check deposits to your given bank accounts?

Check deposits are not accepted by The Bow Tie Duck due to banks requiring 2-3 banking days to get checks cleared before the payment is received from our end. Orders can only stay on hold under your account until 2PM of the next business day and no later than that. Payments are expected to be settled in full before then.

Payment Protection

Do you store my Credit Card information?

Your security especially when doing transactions online is important to us and we take it very seriously.

All credit card transactions happen within a secure and protected environment. In accordance to Republic Act 10173 – Data Privacy Act of 2012 and Republic Act 10870 Credit Card Industry Law, The Bow Tie Duck dutifully complies and does not retain your credit card information after your order is completed.

What measures does The Bow Tie Duck take in order to prevent Credit Card Fraud?

The Bow Tie Duck has added protection and security measures up on our website to prevent cases of Credit Card Fraud. Shall there be any sign of inconsistency or need for transaction review, we will immediately be alerted. The Bow Tie Duck will require additional verification from the Primary cardholder on some cases.

The Bow Tie Duck also adopts 3D Secure payer authentication as a security protocol that requires you to input a One-Time Password (OTP) before transaction is made.

The Bow Tie Duck assures that we do the best we can to ensure the safety of your data and account. However, it takes two to tango on this protection. We also need your help in doing your part to keeping your account and your credit card safe and secure. Do not share your Bow Tie Duck website login details and credit card information to anyone. Remain vigilant, especially when doing online transactions.

Orders

Do you have a cut off time for daily orders?

Yes. The Bow Tie Duck strictly follows a 2PM cut off time on business days from Monday to Friday.

What does having a cut off time mean?

Cut off time is the allotted deadline we have for us to be able to mark an order as processed on the same business day. If you place an order and pay on a given day before the 2PM cut off time, your order will be processed on the same day. If you place an order and pay on a given day after the 2PM cut off time, your order will be processed on the next business day.

When can I expect my delivery to arrive?

Daily orders have a cut off time of 2PM for all business days from Monday to Friday. If you order and successfully pay before the 2PM cut off time of the given business day, your orders are expected to arrive to your delivery address in 48 hours within The Bow Tie Duck delivery days.

Our delivery days are during Mondays to Fridays from 9AM - 3PM and Saturdays 9AM-1PM. There are no deliveries on Sundays.

If you place an order and settle the payment on a Friday before the 2PM cutoff, your orders are expected to arrive to you by next Tuesday.

All expected delivery dates are stated before you checkout and after you place orders.

Yes, you may place a bulk/ corporate order but these will need to be coursed through hello at bowtieduck.com for proper management and facilitation. Please note that on a case to case basis, the 48 hour delivery commitment of The Bow Tie Duck may change depending on the quantity required.

Do you accept pick up of orders?

No, The Bow Tie Duck does not accept order pickups due to the fixed system we have applied in the transfer of goods from source to our packaging area and then directly to you. We adhere to this system strictly so as to refrain for an item to be stored in one place for too long. This will minimize mishandling of items, especially the highly perishable ones.
