        2.2 Our gateway also subscribes to the GDPR Ready regulations (EU General Data Protection Regulation) and Online Fraud Detention Monitoring, secured by PayProtectorTM

3. Payment Options Accepted

        Payment may be made via Visa and Master Card cards, PayPal, Instant EFT, Visa Checkout, MobiCred, SnapScan, Zapper, Masterpass and MTN MoMo, or by bank transfer into Maximed Pharmacy’s bank account, the details of which will be provided on request.

4. Credit Card Acquiring and Security

        Credit card transactions will be acquired for Maximed Pharmacy by                    PayGate who are our approved payment gateway.
