Authorizations and charges process:

Credit/Debit Cards

• At the time of purchase, an initial authorization for the full amount is processed when the order is placed. 
• This authorization falls off and is replaced by a finalized shipped total amount when the order is fulfilled.
• If there is a back-ordered/pre-ordered item(s) present on your order, a second authorization occurs for the remaining open value of the order that will fall off within 3-5 business days and is not actually charged to your account until the backorder is fulfilled.

International orders:

• If you are using an international bank, outside of the U.S., this may take up to one billing cycle to be reflected via your online banking account or banking statement.

Discount not applied at checkout:

• Promo codes are limited-time offers that are valid on one full-price item from a participating brand.
• If you have a qualifying item in your cart, a discount will show in your cart under the price column. 
• If no discount shows, there are no qualifying items in your cart. 

Exclusions and details: 

• Some brands do not participate in the promo or discount program.
• 'Jenson USA Exclusive Builds' bikes are not eligible.
• Promo codes cannot be combined with any other special offer or discount, including but not limited to gift cards, other promotional codes, price matches, and some money card offers.

We understand the concerns about import duty, tax, and brokerage charges, so we’ve worked hard to deliver fast, economical shipping with no extra charges due at delivery.

Brokerage:

We use a premium shipping option with no brokerage charges for your order(s).

Goods and Services Tax / Provincial Sales Tax / Harmonized Sales Tax:

We collect these taxes from you at checkout and remit them directly to the Canadian government. You’ll see your exact total at checkout, and there is nothing due at delivery.

How do you determine the amount of tax? 

Taxes are based on your delivery address and collected at checkout.

Import Duty:

We charge duty on orders shipping to Canada and the rate varies based on the product ordered. The duty amount will be included with any GST/PST taxes in the 'Order Summary' on the taxes line.

Are you sure I won’t be charged brokerage fees? 

Yes, we are sure! Our selected shipping method does not have brokerage charges.

What are the shipping charges? 

To determine the shipping charges, just add the items of your interest to the shopping cart. This does not obligate you to buy them, and you don’t have to log in or create an account as well. 

Can I use my Canadian address for billing and ship to a USA address? 

Yes, we are happy to ship within the US on your behalf. A packing slip showing your items and the prices paid will be included in your shipment. 

Note: Customs or export documentation will not be provided by Jenson USA "for this case." 

How will I be charged? 

We will charge your card in US dollars. Some credit card issuers charge a small fee (usually about 1%) to handle foreign currency. Check with your card issuer for more information. 

Note: This fee is paid to your credit/debit card issuer, and not Jenson USA.

Why are the items on my order not shipping?

Some of our items can not ship outside of the US due to contractual agreements with the manufacturer.

International orders are shipped with one of these carriers: UPS, USPS, and FedEx. The most appropriate carrier is selected based on your location and the item(s) you are purchasing. Oftentimes, there is only one carrier option available. 

Do you provide customs forms?

• Yes, we do include customs forms for all international shipments. 
• We list the actual value of the order(s) contents by product type. For example, orders containing both clothing and bike parts will all be listed as 'bike parts'.
• Customs, import duties (if any), and local taxes are assessed when the package arrives in your country. These additional fees are the responsibility of the recipient.

Import duty and taxes 

If applicable, you are responsible for paying import duties and taxes charged by the government of the recipient country. These fees are collected by the shipping carrier at delivery.  

How much is the import duty or tax?  

We cannot reliably predict what, if any, import duty or tax might be charged. The amount will vary based on the destination country, item(s), and shipping method. 

 If import duty or tax is charged, who pays for it? 

These fees are the responsibility of the recipient. Jenson USA will not pay import duty or tax charges on your behalf.  

Note: Failure to pay import duties or taxes charged will result in the loss of both the item(s) and the funds used to purchase them.
