PAYMENT
Because credit card transactions are such a vital part of our business, we utilize 4 levels of safety to ensure that every transaction on PartySwizzle.com exceeds industry standards for credit card security and customer protection.
Layer 1: Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) is a transport protocol that provides a secure channel between two machines operating over the Internet or an internal network. This link ensures that all data passed between the web server and browsers remain private and integral.
GeoTrust® True BusinessID with EV (Extended Validation) is the premium business-class Secure Socket Layer (SSL) security product available, visually confirming the highest level of authentication available among SSL certificates.
The green bar says it all. If the GeoTrust SSL certificate could talk, it would say "Look at me! You are very secure." During the checkout process you will notice that a portion of the address bar turns green and displays Party Swizzle, Inc.
This is the highest level of company verification and data encryption available. PartySwizzle.com must go through an extensive evaluation and certification process each year before Geotrust will display the green bar.
This is the same security provided on your banking site. You will notice their name turns green also.
Layer 2: A payment gateway protects credit card details by encrypting sensitive information, such as credit card numbers, to ensure that information is passed securely between the issuing bank (customer) and receiving bank (merchant).
PayPal is trusted by over 179 million active accounts around the world and has been a well-respected online payments system since 1998. PartySwizze.com uses Paypal's Payflow Pro payment gateway, which uses a digital signature system that is literally hacker proof, along with Dynamic IP protection to verify the transaction is legitimate.
Layer 3: 3dcart Shopping cart software offers another level of protection by adhering to the most rigorous online security standards to keep your information safe.Since 2009, 3dcart has been compliant with a series of regulations put forth by the PCI Security Standards Council (PCI DDS), which online businesses must follow to ensure the security of online shopping.
PCI DSS is intended to create an additional level of protection for consumers and
reduce the risk of data breaches involving personal cardholder data. Compliance requires quarterly audits and monitoring by a 3rd party.
The PCI security standards are a blanket of regulations set in place to safeguard payment account data security. The council that develops and monitors these regulations are comprised of the leading providers in the payment industry, including American Express, Visa, Mastercard, and Discover.
Layer 4: The purpose of Google Trusted Stores is to verify those merchants that are reputable and maintain customer service as an ongoing priority. Google monitors every PartySwizzle.com transaction and assigns a score based upon our shipping and customer service performance.Before displaying a Google Trusted Stores badge on a merchant's website, Google monitors shipping and customer service records over a period of time. You will find a Google Trusted Stores badge in the bottom right corner for stores that maintain a high score, which you will find at PartySwizzle.com.
Extra Protection: In addition, Party Swizzle.com never has access to your credit card information; it is encrypted and passed directly from the server to the processor. Your credit card information is inaccessible to anyone before, during or after your purchase, unlike in-person transactions.
You may pay via Paypal or American Express, Discover, MasterCard, or Visa credit card. In addition, you can pay with an electronic check via your Paypal account.
We do not accept paper checks or money orders, but you can pay with an electronic check via your Paypal account. If you do not have a Paypal account, you can set one up at no charge at Paypal.com.
We do not charge sales tax, except on orders shipped to addresses in the state of Tennessee. Party Swizzle is located in Tennessee and is required by law to collect sales tax on orders shipped within the state.

PRODUCTS
Each product page will note if the item is "In Stock" or "SOLD OUT" directly below the price. In addition, the actual number in stock will display after "Availability:" under the stock status message.
If there are multiple options, such as, color, size, style etc., choosing a particular option will change the actual number in stock after "Availability:" to the inventory count for that specific option. In other words, choose "Blue" to see the total blue in stock, "Red" for the count of red ones, etc.
Products that will not be restocked will display ** DISCONTINUED ** after the product name.
NOTE: If a product has just recently SOLD OUT or we are unaware that the manufacturer has discontinued an item, the ** DISCONTINUED ** may not yet be displayed.
WAITING LIST: You have the option to add your name to a waiting list for items that are SOLD OUT. You will be notified by email when the item is back in stock. Please note that the waiting list will only notify you when the item is in stock and does not reserve items for your purchase.
All products protected under intellectual property laws are officially licensed.
Generally, we do not accept payment for items that are not in stock.
However, if you have a large order or time constraint, we sometimes arrange pre-ordering of products expressly for our customers. For these special orders, we obtain payment at the time the order is placed.

WHOLESALE
Because we buy most products in bulk and have special arrangements with some of our suppliers, many Party Swizzle products are listed at wholesale or deeply discounted prices.
In addition, because we do a significant amount of business with event planners, retailers, and large volume buyers, we try to extend additional savings in the form of quantity discounts available to all of our customers.
NOTE: If you are interested in buying a product that does not list a quantity discount, please contact us to determine if one is available.
COUPON CODES
Our philosophy is to offer the best price we can to all of our customers. For this reason, instead of offering special discounts to a select few and recoup that cost in higher prices to other customers, we offer everyone the same low prices.
Instead, we frequently put items on sale to extend "coupon codes" for everyone; we just don't make you enter a code.
In addition, because we do a significant amount of business with event planners, retailers, and large volume buyers, we try to extend additional savings in the form of quantity discounts, which are available to all of our customers all of the time.
We have chosen this method because we feel it is the most honest.
Note: Although we have never offered coupon codes at PartySwizzle.com, there are websites that make this claim to attract more visitors to their site.
