How do I buy as a gift?

When you're ready to add a product to your basket, please ensure you have selected 'Yes' to 'Is this a gift' in Step 1 on the product page. 

This will give you the option to send the product to someone else and also give you the option to input the recipient's email address so you can send them a free eCard on the date of your choice.

I want to upgrade a gifted print subscription to digital, can I do this?

Yes, if you have previously purchased a print subscription for someone and now wish to upgrade them to include the digital element, you can do so. However, there can only be one recipient per upgrade i.e. you cannot have two different recipients where one receives the print version and another receives digital.

You can do so by contacting us via email at bauer@subscription.co.uk or over the phone on 01858 438884.

What payment methods do you accept?

We accept all of the following payment methods for Recurring payments: Direct Debit (UK only), Continuous Credit Card and Recurring Paypal.

How secure are my credit card details?

All the information you provide is encrypted (scrambled) using the industry standard SSL (Secure Socket Layer) technology so that when you submit the order from the online form to our computer, nothing can be read as it travels down the secure line. Your details are then applied to our subscription system, which resides in a completely separate, unlinked area away from our internet pages.
