If you do not wish to register a payment method with Stripe, you can make a simple payment by clicking on the"Pay without Link" link, which will redirect you to the following form:

V. Payment by bank transfer

Payment by bank transfer is only authorised for orders over €1,000 excluding VAT. If you are eligible for this option, please contact our sales department.

VI. Payment by prepaid account

The prepaid account is a cash reserve designed to make it easier for you to pay for your orders (new orders, payment for options, transfers, renewals, etc.). The advantage of this type of payment is that you can make your purchases with a single click, without having to enter your bank card number or write a cheque.

Advantages of the prepaid account and loyalty bonus

Each credit purchase earns you points!

1 point = 1 euro

For example, if you credit 100 euros to your prepaid account, you get a bonus of 2 points, giving you 102 euros credited.

The more you credit, the more you earn:

How do I pay for my service with my prepaid account?

To be able to use your prepaid account to validate an order or quote, the amount of your prepaid credit must be greater than the amount to be paid. In other words, you cannot deduct your credit and pay the difference: if you want to use this credit, you will need to credit your account first.

If your balance is sufficient, you will see the prepaid credit payment method on your quote, with details of the initial balance and the remaining balance:

VII. Payment by cheque
