How to shop

In order to make it easier to shop in CroShop.com please read the following guide. At the beginning of each trip to our shop you are assigned a "virtual basket". All products you choose to buy are first put into your "basket". Your "basket" holds these products for you and shows you your current total. You are not obliged to purchase items in your "basket" until after you check out.
At any moment, as you shop, you can check the contents of your "basket" by pressing the icon "View Basket". At "View Basket" you can remove any items from your basket that you decide not to buy. To completely remove an item from your basket, enter 0 as the number of items for a particular product, and then press the X button. You can also increase or decrease the total number of an item in the same way. The changes will be reflected in your "Basket" after pressing X. You browse through the shop by using the product categories on the left side of the screen. After selecting a category you will be given a list of all products in that category. To buy a certain product click on a product link or on a product picture. After that you are taken to a product page with the product picture, price and description. If you choose to buy that product enter the number of products you wish to purchase, and then click on "Buy!". This places the selected product into your "Basket".

Security

All confidential data you enter is absolutely safe (confidential data includes all personal information, the order itself and credit details).
CroShop.com insures modern techniques that allow secure Internet shopping.
The base of secure shopping is the encryption of confidential data.
Browsers enable the sending of encrypted data over the Internet. Browsers can operate in two modes, normal and secure mode. You can tell which mode your browser is in by looking at the right-bottom of the browser window. If you see a broken key or an open padlock, you are in normal mode. Every time you access a secure page the key becomes whole, or the padlock becomes closed.
Another way to check whether a page is secure is to look at the web site address (URL). A standard web page address begins with 'http://'. A secure web page will begin with 'https://' where the additional letter 's' denotes that the merchant is using a secure server for the transaction of data.
In order to be reliable your browser has the ability to check whether a web page is really secure and trustworthy. Your browser checks via digital certificates. Every firm doing business on the Internet must have a digital certificate so that a browser can automatically detect a firm's authenticity and the firm's secure pages.
Digital certificates are issued by international firms who guarantee a merchant's identity and guarantee that a merchant has Web pages which meet rules of Internet commerce. Digital certificates act as electronic signatures and cannot be forged since signatures can be generated only by companies authorized for selling them.

Along with a digital certificate a merchant gets ciphers for encryption of confidential data. After your browser comes to our secure page it switches to secure mode and accepts the certificate in which the public key is stored. When you click the "Send" button data is first encrypted with the public key and than sent to us. Information encrypted with a public key cannot be decrypted without a corresponding private key, which only merchant possesses. In this we you are ensured that no third party can intercept any information you send to us, particularly your credit card information.

Payments

  • If you choose payment via Postal service it is necessary you leave phone number since we have to check every order that is paid in that way. (available only for delivery within Croatia).
    If you wish, you can pay inside Croatia by general receipt at the amount stated on your electronic bill. You will have the option of saving or printing your electronic bill.
    Information for general receipt includes:
    In the Croatian language section of the shop all transactions are listed in Kunas. In the English language section of the shop all prices are listed in $US. Price in $US is calculated in real-time on a current exchange rate. In that way you are buying at Croatian prices and than just ecxhange your money. If you are buying outside Croatia you may shop in the Croatian language section of the shop, but your credit card, if it is issued outside Croatia, will be charged in the currency of the country in which it was issued. Credit card companies do conversion by their own exchange rate. CroShop.com charges only the amount from the electronic bill according to the daily exchange rate of Croatian National Bank.
