5 reasons to buy from a SafeBuy member
When buying from a SafeBuy member, you can be confident that you'll have a hassle-free online shopping experience. All members:
- clearly show their delivery charges and delivery-inclusive prices
- keep your personal information safe and secure
- give their full contact details so you can contact them if there's a problem
- process your credit card details securely
- promise not to use spam for marketing
In the event that there is a problem which you can't resolve directly with the retailer, the free Safebuy Mediation service is there to help.
The SafeBuy Assurance Scheme

Conform to the Data Protection Act 1998;
Provide security for the processing of credit card transactions;
Include physical location and contact details for themselves on their website;
Display the total price consumers must pay for goods including delivery costs and provide a clear explanation of the delivery procedures;
Advise the consumer if 'cookies' are required for the processing of data;
Not use 'spam' for marketing purposes;
Avoid exploitation of children.
