HOW CAN I PAY FOR MY GEAR?

payment types

We accept all major credit and debit cards: Visa, MasterCard, American Express, and Discover. We do not ship COD or accept payment by check or money order. Please note: we must be able to verify the address. Details.

For payment card orders, we offer the Play as you Pay® Installment Payment Plan. Details.

When will I be charged for my order?

We only charge your card once items have shipped. That means you won't be charged until the gear is on its way to you. You won't pay for items on backorder until they ship. For Play as you Pay® orders, we attempt the card provided the day the items ship and again starting on the subsequent due dates. Due dates are scheduled 31 days apart. You can also change your payment schedule at any time to best meet your needs. To do so, just login to your order and click the “Change Schedule” button.

Note: An authorization hold may show up on card statements prior to an order being shipped. Please contact your card issuer for more information.
