How do I log into my account?
- New customer- If you’re a new customer you have to create a customer account first, before you can log in. Your email address will serve as your user name at login. Additionally, you have to come up with a password. You will need both your email-address and your password to log into your customer account.

3 METHODS OF PAYMENT
What are the methods of payment in the webstore?

How does PayPal work?
- Log in - When choosing PayPal, you will be automatically redirected to the PayPal-website at checkout. If you’re a PayPal-user already, you can simply log into your PayPal-account and confirm the payment. If you’re new to PayPal, you can either log in as a guest or establish a new PayPal-account, before confirming the payment.
- Reception of payment - Your order will be processed, once we have received your PayPal-payment. In most cases, this only takes a few minutes. Once the transaction has been completed, you will receive a confirmation by eMail. Please note, however, that there might be cases of handling errors on PayPal’s side, which we have no influence on, and which can delay processing of your order.
- Refund policy - If you have returned a product for a refund, and the original order was paid using PayPal, the refund will be transferred to your PayPal-account, once we have received shipment of the returned item.
4 SHIPMENT OF GOODS
How long will the shipment take?
- Shipment by post -The length of time it takes for a parcel from Finland to arrive at its destination varies depending on your location. Shipping to Estonia and Sweden usually takes 1-2 working days. For Central Europe and UK standard delivery time is 4-6 working days. For southern Europe delivery time is about a week. We ship every day, so your order goes out as quickly as possible.
Shipping and handling rates.
- Inside the EU - Shipping and handling: 15 €; orders worth more than 400 € will be shipped free of charge!
- Outside the EU - Prices for shipping vary according to the shipment’s weight. Sending a standard-sized pedal to a country outside the EU costs approximately 15 Euros.
What happens if a product is out of stock?
- Product quantities - We try to keep our website up to date, when it comes to in-stock product quantities. Should an ordered product not be available, after all, we will inform you as quickly as possible.
- Partial deliveries - Generally, any order leaves our house as one complete shipment. In such cases, when a certain product is out of stock and new shipments are several weeks off, we will ship your order as a partial delivery. A partial delivery means that we will send all available products in one package immediately, and ship the remaining product later in a second shipment at no additional cost to you.
5 TRACKING YOUR ORDER
How can I track the status and shipment of my order?
- Checking the status - Using your customer account you can check the status of any of your orders. See FAQ, chapter 2.
- Tracking your order - Once your order has left our warehouse, you will receive a tracking code valid for Finland’s national postal service. Using the tracking code you can track your order at Posti's Website, while it is still in Finland. For any additional tracking information, please contact your national postal service.
