The payment activity page

The Payments Activity page allows you to manage your payments, view your payment history, and export your payment details to a financial software application. The Payment Activity page consists of three sections: Payment activity search results

Payment Activity Search

Financial Software Payment Activity Search Results Export This section contains all your payment transactions that match the search criteria you selected in the Payment Activity Search. Your payment transactions include scheduled, processed, pending (if applicable), canceled and failed payments. We store payment history for 180 days (6 months) in the past. You can also view information for scheduled payments up to a year in the future. The following table describes the information available in the payment activity search results.

This column… Describes the… Name of biller Person or company who should receive the payment. Amount Amount of payment. This amount includes any fees applied to the payment. An asterisk (*) appears in this column when a payment has been charged. Payment Date The date you specified as the Payment Date when setting up the payment. If the original payment date falls on a weekend or holiday, we will change the payment date to a business day. Payment account Payment account from which we should debit the payment. This can be a bank account that you set up in Macy’s Online Bill Pay. Status Current status of the payment. Scheduled indicates that the payment is scheduled.

Failed means the payment was returned to us, either because there was a problem when we tried to withdraw the payment from your payment account, or because the account information sent with your payment was not sufficient for the biller to credit your account. This status can also occur if the payment account associated with the payment has been closed. Payment activity search results also provide links to other information you can view and tasks you can perform. The following table describes these links.

There are a number of occasions when you would like to order something for delivery by a set date. Maybe a loved one’s birthday is coming up or you need furniture for a move-in date.

Whatever the occasion, waiting longer than expected for an order to arrive can be frustrating – especially if it doesn’t arrive on the day you need it. To make sure you’re aware of your rights, we’re going to walk you through what to do if you’re faced with a delayed delivery.

delivery period

You will usually receive an estimated delivery date or period when you place your order. Check your order details to see what that is.

According to the Consumer Protection Act, the delivery period is 30 days. This applies both online and in store. This period is the maximum time you should wait if you have not received a delivery date. If the retailer does not deliver within the agreed timeframe or within this 30 day period, you have the right to cancel your order and receive a full refund.

This applies regardless of whether the goods were due for delivery on a specific date or not. For example, a photo album ordered for a family member’s birthday must arrive on time, while an album for your personal collection has no time limit.

Goods purchased online

Under the Consumer Contracts Regulations, you have the right to cancel an online order as soon as you place it or within 14 days of receipt.

Under these provisions, you should receive a refund within 14 days of receipt of the goods by the retailer or proof of your return. Proof of postage from the post office should apply for this, for example.

Once you cancel the order, the seller has 30 days to issue you a refund. You may not receive the full amount if the goods are not in the condition they should be when they are returned.

Time is of the essence

If you’ve ordered from the store for home delivery – for furniture or heavy equipment – you won’t get protection under the Consumer Contracts Regulations. For additional rights, try to get the company to agree to a delivery term marked “time is of the essence”.

Make it clear that you need the goods by a specific date or that a service is due to start or end by a specified date. If the retailer does not deliver by then, you have the right to cancel your order and request a refund of a deposit or cancellation of any credit agreement. Alternatively, you can continue with the order but at a lower price.

The seller may not agree, but it’s worth a try, as without it, a company’s only obligation is to deliver within a “reasonable” time. You can try to add “time is of the essence” after ordering, but the retailer may be more reluctant to do so.

What rights of cancellation do consumers have?

A consumer who has bought your goods via an online platform has the right to withdraw from the contract and request a refund within 14 calendar days of receipt of the goods without giving any reason or justification and without liability (unless exceptions apply).

This right gives the consumer the opportunity to examine the goods as he might in a retail store. Please note that the consumer does not have to pay for the return of the goods unless you have informed him that he will have to bear these costs.

The 14-day cooling-off period begins on the day the goods are in the consumer’s possession (or when the last item of the order is in the consumer’s possession if there are multiple goods). Weekends and holidays are included in the 14 days. However, the cancellation period ends at the end of the following working day if the end of the 14 days falls on one of these days.

After receiving the returned goods or confirmation that they have been sent by the consumer, you must refund within 14 days if it appears that the consumer has handled the goods beyond what is necessary to determine their nature, characteristics and functioning (as would normally be done in a retail outlet) and if this reduces the value of the goods by any amount, you have the right to recover that amount from the consumer (you may need to justify this).

Consumers can lose their right of withdrawal if:

The consumer unseals certain goods after delivery where the seal is necessary for health or hygiene reasons (e.g. make-up or swimwear where the hygiene seal has been removed).

The consumer removes the seal on audio or video recordings or computer software.

The goods are inseparably mixed with other goods (e.g. color additive is added to the consumer’s paint pot).

How do consumers cancel?

As already mentioned, you must inform the consumer about their right of withdrawal and how they can exercise it. In order to exercise your right of withdrawal, the consumer can inform you by means of a model withdrawal form (if you have provided one) or by means of another clear statement of withdrawal (in writing or not).

See our cancellation information and sample cancellation form.

What if I didn’t give a right of withdrawal?

If you provide the required cancellation information late (but within 12 months of the consumer entering into the contract), the 14-day cancellation period begins when the consumer receives this information. If you do not enter the required revocation data, the revocation period ends at the end of 12 months from the day on which it would have ended according to the statutory provisions.

Exceptions to the right of withdrawal

The right of withdrawal does not apply in the following cases:

Medical devices supplied by a prescribing physician or healthcare professional or as part of the healthcare service.

Goods, the price of which depends on fluctuations in financial markets (e.g. the value of foreign exchange) and for the delivery of alcoholic beverages, if the price has been agreed, but the delivery of which can take place only after 30 days.

Goods made to a consumer’s specification (but this does not include goods where the ingredients or extras are chosen from a standard list).

Personalized goods (e.g. a mug with a name painted on it or a tailored suit).

Perishable goods or goods that are likely to expire quickly (such as flowers or fresh fruit).

Newspapers, periodicals and magazines (excluding cancelable subscription contracts).

Items sold at a public auction where there is an opportunity to attend in person (not an auction on an online marketplace such as eBay).

Contracts for accommodation, transport of goods, vehicle rental, meals or leisure services if the contract is to be performed at a specific time or within a specific period.

“The consumer does not have to pay for the return of the goods unless you have informed them that they will have to bear these costs.”

Misleading descriptions

You must be honest and truthful in describing your products. Misleadingly marketing your product by misrepresenting or describing it, or by omitting information that a consumer would need to make a decision is a criminal offense.

You can find more information here: Consumer protection against unfair trading.

product safety

You need to make sure your products are safe. If you manufacture, brand or import items from outside the UK, you have a greater responsibility for ensuring that your products meet UK regulatory safety requirements than if you are a retailer. These include product-specific obligations that require products such as toys, cosmetics, and electrical products to be tested to standards to demonstrate compliance with the law. As well as the composition of the product, there are labeling requirements which may include placing your business identity and geographic address on the product and/or its packaging and affixing the CE/UKCA mark. More detailed information can be found here: Product safety.

Food safety and standards

If you sell food you need to make sure you are registered as a food business operator with your local environment and health agency. You also need to be aware of food legislation regarding the composition and labeling of your products. Much of the food information on the product label will need to be duplicated in your online description. More detailed information can be found here: Food and drink.

The process for canceling a purchase requisition depends on the status of the requisition.

If the purchase requisition is not approved and there is no notification to the supplier of a purchase order, the purchase requisition can be canceled (see options below). The purchase order must be canceled directly with the supplier before the purchase order and requisition are canceled in Oracle. Canceling an order in Oracle does not notify the supplier.

before you cancel the order and request in Oracle. Canceling an order in Oracle does not notify the supplier. SmartMart and Amazon Business requisitions can only be canceled if the requisitions are in the Incomplete status, as approval quickly transitions from Pending to Approved.

due to the quick turnaround of approval from Pending to Approved. Non-catalogue requisitions can be canceled when the status is Incomplete or Pending because the processing time for approvals is not as fast.

A purchase order (PO) can be canceled as long as there is approval from the supplier, there are no matching or paid invoices in the PO, and no goods have been received.

My order has been cancelled, why am I still being charged?

If it seems like you’re still being charged even though the order was canceled, it’s most likely because the store hasn’t released the authorization lock.

What is an authorization lock?

A pre-authorization is an amount placed on your card to ensure there are enough funds available for your first payment.

The lock is released by the store when the order is canceled.

Depending on your financial institution, the approval will appear in your bank account between 1 and 7 business days.

What should I do?

If you’re still being charged or the authorization hold hasn’t cleared after a few days, we recommend chatting with our customer service team with your cancellation confirmation.

Sometimes orders in webshops are canceled or delayed and it is not always clear why. Some people will contact the site, but many will not and will never find out the answer. The number one reason every online order gets canceled is suspected fraud. Believe it or not, even small businesses have to deal with people trying to use stolen credit cards to purchase goods and items that aren’t always expected. So why would a legitimate order be confused with a scam? Here are a few small things you can do to keep ordering online from becoming a hassle.

1) If possible, try not to use a different billing and delivery address.

One of the biggest indicators of fraud is a billing and shipping address mismatch, especially when it comes to two different states. Most of the time then not, if those two don’t match we’ll take a closer look at the information in the order and determine that things don’t match. Oftentimes, charging a shop and delivering to a home isn’t even a sensible thing, it’s going to be something odd, like an RV transporting something expensive to a nice home. We’re not sure why they, the criminals, will obviously never have the shipping address as their home, but we believe it’s easier to later change the shipping location with the carrier and intercept the stolen goods to resell later. If different billing and shipping addresses are a must, there is an easy way to deal with it

2) If other addresses are needed, please state the reason in the order comments. In general, openly use the order comments.

Very few of these orders have a comment, or if they do, it’s something nonsensical and weird like “Hey, I’m looking forward to your product” or something, usually in worse English, which makes it much more obvious that the order is a scam . So just writing a short line about why these don’t match is enough. If you order something as a gift, just write that it’s a gift for whoever. If you bill or ship to your company, write it in the order comments. If it’s for a summer house, tell us. A personal example is when I wanted to send a prize donation for an event I would be attending in a different part of the country, I put that in the comments and it was shipped without any problems despite an invoice to California and a ship to Virginia. If we have to guess and any of the other information looks a little off, we may not want to assume that the goods and shipping cost are unavailable and simply cancel the order.

3) Use an email address that contains either part of your name or initials.

We had a couple of orders where everything looked fine except the email was a bit strange, we shrug and send off the package but the next day we get a call from the man in the order saying it is cheating. They would confirm the rest of the information was correct, but the email would be a Gmail address with a series of random sounds followed by a random number, which they most often are. If the email looks like it belongs to the person who placed the order, that’s a long way. We understand that we don’t want to use a regular email address to prevent spam, but if the domain doesn’t exist or the address looks weird, we can easily delete it, especially if other information is fake and we don’t contact the person can from the order with the information provided.

4) Turn off your VPN when placing the order.

If something in your order looks strange, we’ll check the IP address the order was placed from. If it says it’s an IP from another state or country, it’s basically confirming that it’s invalid. Fraudulent orders often have IP addresses that do not match where the order is billed or shipped to, and it is likely that the IP is either where the person with the stolen credit card is located, or the IP is simply set to a random location in the US. If it’s a legitimate order, it’s likely to be placed near the billing or shipping address, even from mobile, since most people live near their place of work. It doesn’t really look weird on mobile if the IP is a bit different, but on desktop it’s a big red flag if the order isn’t close.

One thought that comes to your mind is that someone could look at this and use it to commit fraud, other than legitimizing the information takes too long when time is against the person using a stolen credit card. Spending the time to give persuasive information can be a waste of time before the card gets blocked. Most of the fraudulent orders that we see on our website are not necessarily sloppily executed, but hastily and with the quickest methods. The number of convincing scams we’ve seen are maybe 1 or 2 examples where the number of legitimate orders we either cancel or actually had to pick up the phone and call the person who placed the order is almost as high, if not slightly higher than actual fraud cases. It’s a waste of time for us, it’s obscenely annoying for the person who placed the order, the best thing about online shopping is that you don’t have to deal with anyone and it just gives you a headache. If you follow what the article says, things will go a lot smoother for everyone involved.

Why offer 2-day delivery: Double your conversions and reduce ad spend

In 1858, a package from St. Louis to San Francisco took a lightning-fast 25 days. At the time, this delivery time was considered an immensely impressive turning point.

These days, ecommerce sellers are delivering packages to the other side of the country in days, if not hours. And buyers expect it.

Since selling its first product in 1994, Amazon has changed the game for quick turnaround. Amazon Prime’s 2-day deliveries are now the e-commerce standard, 33% of customers who choose expedited shipping are willing to wait 3 or more days for online orders.

In fact, fast shipping is so important today that 27% of shoppers choose one retailer over another because they have better delivery options.

If you can manage the balancing act of delivering online orders fast enough without significantly increasing your operational costs, you’re in an ecommerce gold mine. But is 2-day delivery easier said than done?

Customer shipping expectations

We all know that change is the only constant in life, and the same goes for delivery times.

In the early days of e-commerce, online shopping was a novelty which meant shipping speeds weren’t that important and standard shipping was the norm. Ordering something from the sofa and having it delivered to your door was an achievement and impressive enough in itself.

Fast forward forty years, and two-day delivery is more than important to customers. It determines where they shop, how much they spend, and the reviews they leave.

On average, online shoppers now consider 3 days to be a reasonable amount of time to wait for an online order.

Speed ​​isn’t the only expectation changing, either.

Your customers’ orders need to be fast, trackable and free to get the best results. It sounds great for buyers and daunting for sellers.

What is 2 day delivery?

2-day delivery means buyers will receive or purchase their orders within two days, provided they meet an order cut-off time. This means a period of 2 days between placing the order and the delivery date.

Depending on a seller’s internal processes and the carrier used, this can be two full days or two business days from the time of checkout or the order cut-off time.

(Source)

For example, Walmart TwoDay Delivery ships orders received before 2:00 p.m. within two business days in the US. So if a customer orders a product on Monday morning, it will be delivered the following Wednesday.

When someone orders an eligible item at 5:00 p.m. on Friday, you can expect to receive it the following Wednesday as it is after 2:00 p.m. Cutoff and excludes the weekend.

2 Day Delivery: Behind the Scenes

Two-day delivery might be as easy as a click for customers, but there’s a lot of work behind the scenes to make sure they get orders on time – especially when they live across the country from your warehouse.

All deliveries must be coordinated between two main shipping options: ground and air shipping.

1. Ground Shipping.

Ground shipping is the use of trucks, vans, and cars to transport orders from your warehouse to a customer’s porch.

Depending on your fulfillment facility, you may use ground transportation provided by your own or an external carrier.

Ground Shipping is the cheapest shipping method that allows you to keep costs down and offer free two-day delivery without breaking the bank.

However, the distance limits land shipping. When customers live too far from your warehouse, you need to consider alternative transportation methods or invest in a distributed network of warehouses to reach customers in a timely manner.

2. Air Freight.

Aeronautics uses airplanes to transport orders to customers.

Air shipping is typically used to deliver products stored overseas or to ship products to customers who live too far away for a two-day ground shipment.

Air shipping is much more expensive than land shipping, especially if you are not shipping in bulk. The need to use air shipping to achieve two-day delivery makes it difficult to offer customers free shipping.

3. Combine ground and air for cost-effective reliability.

The most efficient and cost-effective way to achieve 2-day delivery is to use a combination of ground and air shipping.

For example, Deliverr has a distributed network of warehouses across the country. We use machine learning to store SKUs as close to the buyer as possible based on historical demand location. This way we can choose the most cost effective shipping to deliver the items to buyers in 2 days or less.

Why you need to offer 2-day delivery in your store

According to eMarketer, e-commerce is expected to bring in more than $4.2 trillion in 2020 and will grow to over $6.5 trillion globally by 2023. More people are buying and selling online than ever before.

For e-commerce retailers, this means one thing above all: competition.

It is becoming increasingly difficult to attract, attract and retain customers using traditional e-commerce tactics such as low prices, niche products or being first to market.

Fast delivery options are different. They stand out, meet expectations and exceed them by delivering value to customers. This is why you need to offer 2 day delivery as soon as possible if you are not already doing so.

1. Reduce cart abandonment.

18% of cart abandonments are due to slow delivery speeds. Some customers can’t wait more than 2 days for an urgent item, last minute gift or much-anticipated surprise.

2-Day Delivery overcomes some speed-related purchase blockers, which in turn can reduce cart abandonment and increase conversions. According to Deliverr data, one merchant saw a 300% increase in conversion after implementing 2-day delivery.

2. Increase customer satisfaction and loyalty.

More than a third of customers will not return to a retailer after a poor delivery experience.

Today, the online shopping experience encompasses everything from ordering to unpacking, and a big part of that is how long it takes to go between those two steps. 2-Day Deliveries increase customer satisfaction by adding the finishing touch to an outstanding customer experience.

You’re quick to deliver shows that you can deliver on as promised, you’re reliable, and you value top-notch customer experiences, which are necessary ingredients for increasing customer loyalty.

3. Expand your marketing influence.

Fast shipping speeds give you something exciting, attention-grabbing, and useful to share in your marketing collateral.

You can add quick send banners, tags and wording to your emails, social media posts and website. This also works for ads if you can highlight your delivery speeds in a way that captivates customers and entices them to click through to your store.

Based on Deliverr data, some Deliverr merchants have seen a 50 percent increase in Facebook CPA by adding next-day and next-day delivery badges to their Facebook posts.

Tip: Get 2-day delivery within the United States (continental US) when you checkout with Deliverr. Your orders will show up for buyers in eligible postcodes with next day shipping at no extra charge.

This is how you keep the 2-day delivery costs low

According to the Baymard Institute, shipping costs are one of the top reasons for cart abandonment. If you can’t keep your delivery costs low enough, you could turn customers away or end up paying the bill yourself and losing your profit margins.

In order for 2-day delivery to be attractive to customers and sustainable for your business, you need to know how to keep your 2-day delivery costs low.

1. Offer only 2-day delivery with a minimum order value.

A minimum purchase value for free 2-day shipping means that customers must spend a certain order amount before qualifying for 2-day delivery. This increases basket sizes to ensure you make enough profit margin to absorb delivery costs.

And it’s not uncommon. For example, non-Prime members must spend at least $25 on Amazon to qualify for free two-day shipping.

2. Offer 2-day delivery for certain postcodes.

Providing 2-day delivery only to certain postcodes near your warehouses reduces the distance orders have to travel and keeps your carrier costs to a minimum.

Restricting eligibility for free two-day shipping gives you more time to fulfill orders and, depending on how close your customers live, next-day delivery at no extra cost.

Tip: Deliverr offers free next-day delivery to buyers in eligible zip codes, at no additional cost to merchants (they’ll still pay the flat 2-day delivery fulfillment fee). Learn more about it here.

3. Work with an outsourced fulfillment partner to get discounted shipping costs.

3PLs have economies of scale to access discounted shipping rates and keep your shipping costs down.

However, it’s important to work with a company that’s tailored to provide ecommerce fulfillment services that integrate with all of your sales channels without unexpected fees or administrative costs.

4. Use ground shipping and ship from urban fulfillment centers.

(Source)

Ground shipping is the cheapest method to deliver orders within 2 days. So, by distributing your inventory through a network of metropolitan fulfillment centers, you increase the coverage of your US SKUs. This reduces the distance your items have to travel to reach your buyers, allowing you to use ground shipping for 2-day deliveries.

3 ways to offer 2-day shipping

The best option for 2-day shipping is the method that best balances capacity and cost. You need to deliver on time all year round to keep your business profitable.

This can mean in-house fulfillment, outsourcing parts of your fulfillment process, or using Deliverr as your end-to-end fulfillment partner.

1. In-House Fulfillment.

In-house processing uses your own resources, premises and staff to ship orders within 2 days. This contains:

Goods receipt and warehousing.

Track and analyze inventory.

Picking and packing of orders.

Shipping deliveries with a reliable carrier.

The advantages of in-house processing are control and costs. You have complete control over how you meet two-day delivery speeds, and you have tighter control over where you spend and save.

The considerations for internal fulfillment are capacity and scope. Order delivery within 2 days requires highly efficient fulfillment processes that are difficult to maintain during peak periods like public holidays or when your e-commerce business is growing.

For these reasons, many sellers choose to move from in-house to outsourced processing.

2. Outsourced Fulfilment.

Outsourced fulfillment involves using an outsourced fulfillment center to achieve 2-day delivery speeds for you. This contains:

Receive incoming inventory.

Stocking and tracking inventory.

received orders.

picking, packing and shipping.

The benefits of outsourced fulfillment are expertise and capacity. Outsourced fulfillment centers excel in the fast shipping speeds of ecommerce and have the scalable space and resources to meet 2-day deliveries no matter how busy or large your business gets.

The considerations for using outsourced fulfillment are cost and distribution channels.

While outsourced fulfillment centers have economies of scale that reduce storage, packaging, and transportation costs, some 3PLs sting you with hidden costs. For example, traditional 3PL models charge administration, entry, and account maintenance fees that quickly add up.

Another consideration when using outsourcing is the integration of multiple sales channels. Not all 3PLs integrate with all sales channels, and those that do may require additional fees. For example, Multi-Channel FBA fulfills non-Amazon orders but charges a premium fee for doing so.

3. Delivery Person

Deliverr is an outsourced fulfillment service designed to enable fast delivery speeds of 2 days and less across all sales channels. This contains:

Cash out incoming inventory through a network of warehouses across the US.

Store inventory close to customers for faster shipping.

Integration with sales channels to download orders instantly.

Picking and packing of orders.

Shipping with the most efficient and cost effective carriers.

The main benefits of using Deliverr are speed and cost. Deliverr uses a network of warehouses and carriers to deliver orders as quickly and cost-effectively as possible – and offers 2-day shipping speeds that qualify for fast shipping programs through marketplaces and your own website.

Deliverr also offers a transparent and all-inclusive pricing structure, so you know exactly what your fulfillment fee will be, with no hidden fees or surprise fees.

The considerations for using Deliverr are branded packaging and control.

Deliverr does not accept branded packaging as it slows down the fulfillment process and makes two-day deliveries a challenge. But with 67% of shoppers saying convenience is the most important factor when buying online, it comes as a small price to pay for many.

Outsourcing order fulfillment to Deliverr requires you to relinquish some control over storage and order fulfillment. But with live inventory management tools tracking your inventory and fast shipping experts taking care of your fulfillment, many sellers don’t mind selling off this part of their business.
