Payment FAQs

1. Will my credit/debit card secure on your website?

Absolutely! Our store is hosted on secured SSL hosting provider. They provide us with the online e-commerce platform that allows us to sell our products and services to you. Your data is stored through the securely encrypted data storage, databases and the general ecommerce application on a secured server behind a firewall.

We are using a direct payment gateway provided by Stripe to accept your debit/credit card payment. Stripe stores your credit card data. It is encrypted through the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI-DSS). Your purchase transaction data is stored only as long as is necessary to complete your purchase transaction. After that is complete, your purchase transaction information is deleted.

All direct payment gateways adhere to the standards set by PCI-DSS as managed by the PCI Security Standards Council, which is a joint effort of brands like Visa, Mastercard, American Express and Discover.
PCI-DSS requirements help ensure the secure handling of credit card information by our store and its service providers.

PayPal is a secure and trustworthy payment processing service which allows you to shop online. PayPal can be used at AllThingsHomes.com.au to purchase items by Credit Card (Visa, Mastercard, Discover, and American Express), Debit Card, or E-Check (i.e. using your regular Bank Account). AllThingsHomes.com.au cannot see your card number as it is securely encrypted through PayPal’s server. This limits the risk of unauthorized use and access.

Once you have placed an order, you should not change your billing or shipping address information. If you want to make a change, please contact our Customer Support/Service team as soon as possible during the order processing stage to indicate your request.

After Sales FAQs

1. How can I cancel my order, before and after payment?

Cancellation before payment

If you have not paid for your order yet, then there is no need for you to contact us to cancel it. We do not process orders until a matching payment has been received for the order. If your order is more than a week old and is still unpaid, you will not be able to “reactivate” it by sending a payment, because the prices of the individual items may have changed, along with the currency conversions and shipping rates. You will need to re-order again if you still want the items.

Withdrawing an order after payment

If you have already paid for an order and want to cancel it, please contact our Customer Support/Service team as soon as possible. If you are not sure about an issue relating to your order or you wish to change it, please contact our Customer Support/Service team to put the order on hold while you decide. This will stop the packaging process while you make changes.

If the package has already been dispatched, then we are not able to cancel or change the order.

If you wish to cancel an existing order because you are ADDING other products, there is no need to cancel the entire order. Simply contact out Customer Support/Service team and we will process the updated order; there is usually no additional fee for this service. Generally, if your order is in an early part of the processing stage, you may still be able to change or cancel it. You can ask for a refund or provide the payment as credit for future orders.

3. Under which circumstances would an item be able to be exchanged or returned?

At All Things Home’s, we pride ourselves in the quality and fit of our clothes. All the men’s, women’s and licensed clothing that we sell are designated as OSRM (Other Special Regulated Materials) and, once sold, cannot be returned or exchanged EXCEPT for quality issues or mis-shipment.

Quality Issues:

Should you find any item to be materially defective, the item must be returned to us in the same condition as it was sent within 7 calendar days after receiving the garment – it must be unwashed, unworn and with all the original tags affixed. Although we carefully check all merchandise for visible defects and damage prior to shipment, it is the buyer’s responsibility to check the product upon its arrival to make sure it is free from any defects or problems. Damaged goods due to client negligence or items without their tags will not be accepted for refund.

Not as described:

We will exchange your product in cases where the purchased product does not match the item received. For instance, it is not the color that you ordered (perceived color differences due to your computer monitor will not be exchanged), or the item you received does not match the style that you ordered.

Please note:

All returned or exchanged items due to quality or not as described issues must be returned within 7 calendar days after you have received the items. Returns and exchanges will only occur for eligible products. We reserve the right to refuse the return and exchange of any items that have been worn, damaged, or had the tags removed. If an item we receive has been worn, is damaged, has had its tags removed, or is deemed unacceptable for return and exchange, we reserve the right to return to you any non-compliant pieces. All product packaging must be intact and not damaged in any way.

4. Where do I return the item?

After contacting our Customer Support/Service team and reaching mutual agreement, we will give you the RMA information and you will be able to send the item(s) to our warehouse in Australia. Once we have received the item(s), we will review the condition of the item(s). If all of the relevant criteria have been met, we will process a refund if you have requested one; alternatively, if you have asked for an exchange instead, the replacement will be sent to you and we will confirm you via email or message in your account when you login.
