💳 Payment Policy
At Modular Container Solutions, we aim to make your purchase as secure and transparent as possible. Because we deal with large-scale industrial assets and custom fabrication, our payment structures are designed to protect both the consumer and the production process.
1. Accepted Payment Methods
We currently accept the following secure payment methods:
Electronic Funds Transfer (EFT): Our preferred method for all transactions.
Bank Guaranteed Cheques: Subject to a 7-day clearing period.
Secure Online Payments: Available via [Insert Gateway Name, e.g., PayFast or Ozow] for smaller accessories or holding deposits.
Note: For security reasons, we do not accept cash on delivery (COD) or cash on-site at our depots.
2. Payment Structure
To manage the high cost of materials and specialized logistics, the following schedules apply:
| Project Type | Deposit Required | Balance Due |
| Stock Units | 100% upfront | Prior to dispatch |
| Custom Builds | 50% to commence work | Prior to delivery/loading |
| Rentals | First month + Security Deposit | Prior to delivery |
3. Transaction Security
Your financial security is our priority:
Encryption: Our website uses SSL (Secure Socket Layer) encryption to protect your data.
Verification: For high-value EFTs, we may request a Proof of Payment (POP) sent directly from your banking app to [Your Email Address].
POPIA Compliance: All financial data is handled in strict accordance with the South African Protection of Personal Information Act.
4. VAT (Value Added Tax)
All prices displayed on our website and quoted in formal documents are inclusive of 15% VAT unless explicitly stated otherwise. A valid Tax Invoice will be issued for every transaction.
5. Quotation Integrity
Due to the fluctuating costs of steel and fuel in South Africa, quotations are valid for 7 calendar days.
Prices are locked in only once the deposit or full payment is cleared in our bank account.
6. Refund Processing
In the event of a cancellation or return (subject to our https://aquacatcontainertraders.co.za/return-refunds-policy/), refunds will be processed via EFT into the original account used for payment within 7–10 business days.
