IOSS available!

Lunarcat now supports IOSS for European customers.
You can now pay VAT during shipping checkout to reduce customs delays.

What is IOSS?
IOSS (Import One-Stop Shop) is a system that allows customers to pay VAT upfront.
This makes your life easier by helping parcels clear EU customs much faster and eliminates courier handling charges at delivery.
* Available for parcels with total item value up to €150 (excluding shipping costs).

Updates to Paypal Workflow

The PayPal payment workflow now uses an Authorization > Capture model, instead of the previous instant Capture.
This change is intended to eliminate avoidable conversion-related losses for customers.

Previously, we collected funds upfront and issued refunds for unfulfilled or adjusted orders directly to customers’ PayPal accounts. This created losses for customers because PayPal applies a higher conversion rate on payment and a lower rate on refund conversion.

Under the new logic, customers authorize payment at checkout.
This means that you allow us to charge up to the authorized amount.
- After a successful purchase, we capture only the actual amount required.
- Otherwise the authorization is declined, which means that you pay nothing for unsuccessful orders.
- If additional charges are required (for example, added domestic shipping), we will request a separate authorization for the additional amount.

We are continuing to improve to provide a more customer-friendly environment.

Thank you!
