# When I press PAY NOW at checkout, is my card immediately charged?

No, we use a pre-authorisation system.  This enables our sales team to check if your 'order' can be fulfilled before accepting it.  You will be notified of order acceptance / decline5 of your order by email, normally the same working day that you submit your order.  Don't worry, you don't get charged twice!
