To all our US customers,

We are thrilled to announce that Stealthvape UK is resuming shipping to the United States, and we couldn’t be more excited to reconnect with our valued customers across the pond. After a brief hiatus due to our former payment provider’s policies, we have partnered with a new payment provider, Elavon, to streamline the process and ensure a smooth shopping experience for our customers.

New Opportunities with Elavon

The transition to Elavon opens up new possibilities for both our team and our customers. With this reliable payment provider on board, we can now offer a seamless and secure payment experience, making it easier for you to get your hands on the high-quality mod parts you love.

Compliance with Legislation

In our commitment to compliance, we want to inform our customers that some products on our website will be restricted to the USA, aligning with legislation such as the PCT Act. However, we want to reassure modders that our mod parts remain unaffected by these regulations. You can continue to explore and purchase your favourite mod parts without any restrictions.

Faster Shipping Options

We understand the importance of timely deliveries, and to enhance your shopping experience, we have partnered with express courier services UPS and DHL. While these services may be more expensive than USPS, they offer significant advantages in terms of speed and reliability. Our experience with UPS and DHL has shown that they are more reasonable and less likely to refuse shipments without valid grounds, ensuring that your orders reach you promptly.

What to Expect

With Stealthvape UK back in action, customers in the United States can look forward to a renewed and improved shopping experience. Whether you’re a seasoned modder or a newcomer to the world of vaping, we have an extensive range of high-quality mod parts to suit your needs.

We appreciate your patience and loyalty during this transition, and we can’t wait to serve you better than ever before. Explore our website, discover the latest mod parts, and experience the convenience of our new payment system.

Thank you for being part of the Stealthvape UK community. We look forward to serving you and providing top-notch modding supplies for your vaping journey.

Happy Modding!

As the vaping industry continues to grow, Visa and Mastercard are increasingly taking action to ensure that their policies and regulations are adhered to by card acquirers. In the past few years, both companies have increased the pressure on card acquirers to prevent orders from international vendors in the vaping industry from reaching customers.

The vaping industry has exploded in recent years, with many people turning to this new form of smoking to help them quit traditional cigarettes. The industry is estimated to be worth over $12 billion in 2020, and it’s expected to continue to grow. However, the industry has also been plagued by controversy, with many health organizations condemning it for its potential health risks.

In response to these concerns, Visa and Mastercard have taken action. Both companies have made it clear that they will not allow card acquirers to facilitate transactions that involve vendors in the vaping industry. They have also implemented new rules and regulations to ensure that card acquirers are adhering to their policies.

For example, Visa and Mastercard have issued strict guidelines to card acquirers, including a requirement that they must verify the identity of the vendor and the customer, as well as the age of the customer. Card acquirers must also ensure that the vendor is following applicable laws and regulations in the customer’s jurisdiction, and they must inform customers of all terms and conditions associated with the transaction.

These efforts from Visa and Mastercard are intended to protect customers from being misled or scammed, as well as to ensure that the vaping industry is operating within the law. However, it’s important for card acquirers to understand these requirements and to ensure that they are adhering to them. If card acquirers fail to do so, they may face significant fines and penalties from Visa and Mastercard.

In short, Visa and Mastercard are doing what they can to ensure that the vaping industry is operating within the law, and that customers are protected from potential scams or misleading information. Card acquirers must understand and comply with the new rules and regulations to avoid any potential repercussions.
