At SRAM Shop, we understand that seamless transactions are as critical to your ride prep as precision drivetrain components. Our payment infrastructure is engineered with the same performance focus we apply to our cycling products.

Global Payment Methods

We accept all major international payment options preferred by performance cyclists:

  • Visa/MasterCard/JCB – Instant processing with 3D Secure authentication
  • PayPal – Recommended for fastest checkout (especially during race-season rushes)
Pro Tip: International riders should notify their card issuer about upcoming overseas transactions to prevent security holds when ordering time-sensitive components like bearings or brake pads.

Security Built for Mechanics

Our payment system mirrors the reliability of SRAM’s sealed bearing technology:

  • PCI-DSS Level 1 Certified – The highest security standard for payment processing
  • Zero Data Storage – We never retain your financial details (just like we don’t reuse worn chainring bolts)
  • Real-Time Fraud Screening – Multiple protection layers for your transactions

Troubleshooting Payment Issues

If your payment fails like a misaligned derailleur, these are the most common fixes:

  • Bank Authorization Blocks – Many banks automatically block first-time international cycling purchases
  • Address Verification – Ensure your billing address matches your card statement exactly
  • Order Value Thresholds – High-value groupset purchases may require bank pre-authorization

Why We Don’t Accept These

Like choosing between road vs. MTB components, some payment methods don’t fit our global rider community:

  • Cryptocurrency – Processing delays conflict with our urgent shipping timelines
  • Local Payment Apps – Not compatible with our Sacramento-based fulfillment system
  • Cash on Delivery – Impossible with our DHL/FedEx shipping partnerships

Still stuck? Our rider support team at [email protected] speaks payment processing as fluently as drivetrain specs. Expect a solution within 24 hours – about the same timeframe as our expedited bearing shipments.
