Payment & Security — Gardeners Fitzrovia

At Gardeners Fitzrovia we prioritise a safe and seamless checkout in our secure Gardeners Fitzrovia payments area. This section outlines how we process transactions, the payment options available and the steps we take to keep your data protected. Our Gardeners Fitzrovia payment area is designed for clarity: simple choices, fast authorization and explicit security measures so you can pay with confidence.

We accept major card networks including Visa and Mastercard, as well as PayPal and direct bank transfer. These payment methods are supported across the Gardeners Fitzrovia secure payments portal to suit different preferences — from instant card processing to account-based transfers. Every transaction is routed through encrypted channels and monitored for unusual activity.

Our checkout page lists the accepted payment methods clearly and gives you the option to choose the preferred method. For card payments, the Gardeners Fitzrovia payments area uses tokenization so that card numbers are never stored on our systems. Below is a quick summary of available options:

• Visa & Mastercard — fast card authorization
• PayPal — secure account-based checkout
• Bank transfer — ideal for larger invoices or business accounts

Encryption and Secure Connections

The secure payments for Gardeners Fitzrovia rely on industry-standard SSL/TLS encryption. When you enter payment details the padlock icon in your browser confirms an encrypted session. SSL encryption ensures data is scrambled in transit, preventing interception between your device and our payment processor. We enforce up-to-date TLS protocols to align with best practices.

Our servers, and those of our third-party payment partners, are configured to support strong ciphers only. This reduces vulnerability to outdated cryptographic attacks and ensures that the Gardeners Fitzrovia payment portal maintains modern security standards. We also use session management techniques to protect against replay and tampering attempts.

We perform frequent security reviews and vulnerability scans. While you use our secure payment area, background checks detect suspicious patterns and flag abnormal behaviour for manual review. These measures are part of our layered approach to securing payments, combining automated tools with human oversight.

PCI Compliance and Data Handling

Gardeners Fitzrovia is committed to PCI DSS compliance for handling payment card data. Our card processing partners are certified and we follow requirements for secure storage, processing and transmission of cardholder data. This includes limiting access to sensitive information, regularly testing systems and encrypting stored data where necessary.

When you use the Gardeners Fitzrovia secure payment portal, card details are processed by PCI-compliant processors and are either tokenized or encrypted at source. The result is that our systems avoid retaining raw card numbers wherever possible, significantly reducing exposure to risk.

In addition to technical controls, we maintain documented policies and staff training focused on payment security. If you choose bank transfer, instructions are provided at checkout and payments are reconciled securely on our accounting side without revealing unnecessary banking details. Whether you use card, PayPal or a bank transfer, our payment and security page explains the steps taken to keep every transaction protected.
