Five steps to make purchases in an online shopping

Although it is your first time shopping online, you may currently find that the purchasing processes in virtual

stores in Colombia are similar to each other and are very simple. Remember to carry out these types of

transactions from your home or office computer and not from public computers. Don't take the risk of exposing

your personal and financial data.

Here are five keys to help you.

1. From Internet Explorer, Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, Opera, or whatever browser you prefer, enter

the store where you want to buy. Take into account the "Registration" section as most stores ask you for this

step so that you can start the process. It's easy and you can benefit from notifications of offers and store

news coming to your email.

2. Make sure which form of payment you are going to use to carry out the transaction (see box 'Payment

methods').

3. Start searching for the items you want to buy. Either browsing the sections of the store (Clothing,

Shoes, Technology, Home, etc.) or using a specific term in the search engine of the page.

4. As you find the products, you will see that in each one you have the possibility to click on the button "Add

to cart", "Add to cart" or "Add to bag" . So far you have only selected what you like and you can make changes,

remove a product from the cart or add more.

Generally, the products that you add to the shopping cart remain there for 24 hours. After that time they could

disappear from inventory. Be very attentive if it is a deal that lasts only one day so that you do not miss the

opportunity.

5. When you finish choosing and once you are sure that you have achieved what you were looking for, you

can pay . Usually, at the bottom of the list of products in your shopping cart you can see a "Checkout" button.

In this step you must fill out a form with personal information: name, identity document number, address,

shipping information, billing information.

In that form or on the next page, you will have to enter your credit card information or they will tell you

what to do according to the payment method you have chosen (in cash, with debit, with store credit card, etc.)

There you will know the total of your purchase and the shipping costs. It is also likely that the partner

company that handles the shipment will offer a tracking number for you to enter the page, know the route of the

box and the approximate time it will take to have the items in your hands.

At the end of the transaction, the system will announce that it was successful and you just have to wait for

the order to arrive at your home or office.

Payment Methods

Payment in cash: it is possible to pay in cash at a bank with a pin associated with the purchase and generated

by the system. Some stores allow initial payments to separate the product and the rest are charged once the

order is delivered.

With a store card: Most stores offer their own cards, like Falabella and Éxito, with which you can obtain

discounts and special benefits.

By credit card: you will generally find that all cards are accepted, Diners, American Express, Visa or

Mastercard.

By check: although the use of checks is less and less common, stores like success.com use this means in their

'Plan Separe', with post-dated checks.

Debit card: it is similar to cash payment, the advantage is that you can do it online. Remember that to process

the transaction you must enter your primary key number. Some banks require that you enter a "second password"

that the same entity is responsible for giving you for this type of transaction. The risks, as in an ATM, lie,

for example, in someone seeing the key. You will also need to pay close attention so that you do not enter a

fake page.

Take these precautions into account and you will find that buying online is a reliable and fast method to

obtain those products that you want so much. https://ckconnect.shop
