Payment Security: How We Protect You
Stripe’s Security Infrastructure
Stripe maintains the highest level of payment security available:
PCI DSS Level 1 Certification
The Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS) has four compliance levels. Level 1 is the most stringent, reserved for businesses processing the largest volumes of transactions. Stripe holds Level 1 certification, meaning their security practices are audited annually by independent third parties.
Encryption
-
All data transmitted between your browser and Stripe is encrypted using TLS 1.2+ (Transport Layer Security)
-
Card information is encrypted at rest using AES-256 (Advanced Encryption Standard with 256-bit keys)
-
Encryption keys are stored separately from encrypted data
Tokenization
When you enter your card information on joymade.shop:
-
Your browser sends encrypted card data directly to Stripe’s servers
-
Stripe replaces your actual card number with a unique digital “token”
-
This token (not your real card number) is stored for future reference (if you choose to save your payment method)
-
Even if our database were compromised, attackers would find only useless tokens – not usable card information
Machine Learning Fraud Detection
Stripe’s Radar system analyzes billions of data points to identify suspicious transactions in real time:
-
Unusual purchase patterns
-
Suspicious device fingerprints
-
Known fraudster indicators
-
Velocity checks (too many attempts from one IP)
-
Geographic anomalies
3D Secure Authentication
For certain transactions (high-value orders, first-time customers, or flagged as potentially risky), Stripe automatically initiates 3D Secure verification:
-
Visa: Verified by Visa
-
Mastercard: Mastercard Identity Check
-
American Express: Amex SafeKey
-
Discover: ProtectBuy
You may be prompted to enter a one-time code sent via SMS or verify through your banking app. This extra step prevents unauthorized use of your card even if your card number is stolen.
JOYMADE’s Security Practices
Beyond Stripe’s protections, we implement our own security measures:
No Storage of Full Card Data
We never store your full credit card number, CVV, or expiration date on our servers. Ever. Tokenization means we don’t need to.
Limited Access
Only authorized JOYMADE personnel with specific roles can access even masked payment information (e.g., “Visa ending in 1234”).
Regular Security Audits
We conduct quarterly vulnerability scans and annual penetration testing on our website infrastructure.
HTTPS Everywhere
joymade.shop uses HTTPS (Hypertext Transfer Protocol Secure) across every page – not just checkout. This ensures all data exchanged between your browser and our site is encrypted.
Secure Admin Access
Our team uses multi-factor authentication (MFA) to access any administrative systems containing customer or order data.
Refund & Chargeback Protection
Refund Process
When you request a refund (as outlined in our Refund and Return Policy), the money is returned to your original payment method:
| Payment Method | Refund Time | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Credit/Debit Card | 3-7 business days | Depends on your issuing bank |
| Apple Pay | 3-7 business days | Refunded to the card linked to Apple Pay |
| Google Pay | 3-7 business days | Refunded to the card linked to Google Pay |
Important: While Stripe processes refunds within 24-48 hours of our approval, your bank may take additional time to post the credit to your account. If you haven’t seen a refund after 10 business days, please contact your financial institution first, then reach out to us at joymade.bachwl@gmail.com.
Chargebacks
A chargeback occurs when you dispute a transaction directly with your credit card issuer rather than requesting a refund from us.
Before filing a chargeback, please contact us at joymade.bachwl@gmail.com or +84353627282. Most issues (damaged items, shipping delays, ordering errors) can be resolved faster through our customer service team than through the chargeback process.
If you file a chargeback:
-
Your order is automatically canceled
-
The disputed amount is frozen until the bank decides
-
We will provide Stripe with evidence of the transaction (delivery confirmation, communication records, etc.)
-
If the bank rules in our favor, the charge may be reinstated
-
If you later want the same products, you must place a new order
We never penalize customers for legitimate chargebacks (e.g., fraud on your account). However, we do investigate patterns of abuse.
Pricing, Taxes, & Fees
Currency
All prices on joymade.shop are displayed in United States Dollars (USD) .
For international customers, your bank or credit card issuer will convert USD to your local currency using their exchange rate at the time of transaction. JOYMADE does not control or profit from currency conversion fees.
Taxes
| Shipping Destination | Tax Collection |
|---|---|
| United States (Wyoming) | 4% state sales tax applied |
| United States (other states) | Applicable state and local taxes calculated at checkout |
| International | No US taxes applied; you are responsible for customs duties, VAT, or other import fees |
Note on International Orders: Your country’s customs office may require payment of import duties, taxes, or fees before releasing your package. These are NOT included in the price you pay on joymade.shop. Please check with your local customs authority for estimated costs before ordering.
Transaction Fees
JOYMADE charges no additional fees for any payment method. The price you see at checkout is the price you pay (plus applicable taxes and shipping).
However, your financial institution may charge:
-
Foreign transaction fees (if your card is issued outside the US and you pay in USD)
-
Overdraft fees (if using a debit card with insufficient funds)
-
Cash advance fees (if using a credit card for purchases – rare but possible with some cards)
These fees are determined solely by your bank. Please contact them for their fee schedule.
Troubleshooting Payment Issues
Common Decline Reasons & Solutions
| Decline Message | Likely Cause | What To Do |
|---|---|---|
| “Your card declined this transaction” | Insufficient funds, card expired, or bank blocked it | Check your balance and expiration date; call your bank |
| “Invalid card number” | Typo or unsupported card type | Re-enter carefully; try a different card |
| “Invalid CVV” | Wrong security code | Locate the 3-4 digit code on your card |
| “Your card does not support this type of purchase” | Card restricted to in-person or specific merchant categories | Use a different card or contact your bank |
| “Payment amount exceeds your daily limit” | Your bank has a transaction cap | Split payment (not possible) or contact bank to raise limit |
| “3D Secure authentication failed” | You didn’t complete verification or timed out | Try again and complete the code entry quickly |
| “Payment method not accepted for this currency” | International card with restrictions | Use a different card or PayPal (when available) |
Still Having Trouble?
If you’ve tried multiple cards and payment methods without success:
-
Clear your browser cache and cookies – Sometimes stored data interferes with Stripe’s scripts
-
Try a different browser – Chrome, Firefox, Safari, and Edge all work; occasionally one has issues
-
Disable browser extensions – Ad blockers, VPNs, and privacy tools can block Stripe
-
Use incognito/private mode – This bypasses many extension conflicts
-
Try from a different device – Phone instead of computer, or vice versa
-
Contact your bank – Ask if they’re declining international or online transactions
-
Email us at joymade.bachwl@gmail.com with a screenshot of the error (do not include your card number)
Saving Payment Methods (Optional)
For returning customers, Stripe offers the ability to securely save your payment information for faster future checkouts.
How it works:
-
During checkout, check the box that says “Save my payment method for future purchases”
-
Stripe stores a token (not your actual card number)
-
On your next visit, you’ll see the last 4 digits of your saved card
-
You can select it with one click – no need to re-enter details
To remove a saved payment method:
-
Log into your JOYMADE account
-
Go to “Account Settings” → “Payment Methods”
-
Click “Remove” next to the card you wish to delete
Security note: Saved payment methods are protected by your JOYMADE account password. Always log out of your account on shared devices.

Touch/Face ID: On compatible devices, you can authenticate payments using biometrics

Provide written instructions in large print or plain text
-
Connect you with a support representative who can guide you through the checkout process
