Methods of Payment

Payment Methods

We accept Visa, MasterCard, and American Express. Your card will only be charged when your order is shipped. You can also pay using PayPal. If you choose this option at checkout, you'll be taken to PayPal to log in and confirm the amount before clicking "Pay now." After the transaction, you’ll return to ELGENERALEXPRESS.COM.

Payment Security

All transactions on this website use Datacash, a secure online payment system that encrypts your card details.

To enhance your security, we offer MasterCard® SecureCodeTM, which protects your existing MasterCard® account from unauthorized use. To use this, you must register with the bank that issued your card. For more details, visit MasterCard® SecureCode's website.

After registering and creating your private password, you'll be asked to enter it every time you make a purchase. This means that even if someone knows your debit card number, they can't complete a purchase without your password.

Storing Card Details

ELGENERALEXPRESS.COM also allows you to securely store your credit card details for quicker shopping. Only the last 4 digits of your card will be shown, so you know which card you’re using. You can remove your card details by unchecking "remember my payment details" at checkout.

If you change or add a new address, you will need to enter your card details again. This is a safety measure to protect your personal information.

Shopping Safety

To ensure your shopping experience is safe and simple, ELGENERALEXPRESS.COM uses Secure Socket Layer (SSL) technology. This encrypts and protects your data online. When SSL is active, you’ll see a lock icon at the top of your browser. The website address will also start with 'https:' instead of 'http:', indicating that it's secure.

Digital Security Certificates

ELGENERALEXPRESS.COM is registered with Cybertrust as a verified site, ensuring your information remains private while it's being transmitted between your web browser and our server.
