How long can I pay for?
CDcare

It varies by product. Depending on the product, you may choose between 4 to 40 weeks or 2 to 12 months. Installments must be equal and consistent.

When will I receive my item?
CDcare

Delivery is strictly based on time, not on how much you pay early. Your item is delivered at the midpoint of your selected installment duration. Examples: 1. 2-month plan -> delivery processed within 15 days after midpoint completion and verification 2. 6-month plan -> delivery in the 3rd month 3. 12-month plan -> delivery in the 6th month. Early payment does not accelerate delivery. Delivery is subject to compliance review and account standing.

Can I pay half and collect immediately?
CDcare

No. If you want early delivery, choose the 2-month plan.

Can I pay installments early?
CDcare

Yes. However, early payment does not change your delivery timeline unless you switch to a shorter approved installment plan.

If I fully settle before midpoint, will I get my item?
CDcare

Yes. Full settlement of the total contract value allows delivery subject to verification and compliance review.

Can I pay outright?
CDcare

Yes. You may choose the one-time payment option and collect your item after verification.

What happens if I miss a payment?
CDcare

Weekly plans have a 3-day grace period, and monthly plans have a 7-day grace period. If payment is still not made before the grace period ends, a Failure-To-Return Fee applies: 3% for weekly plans and 10% for monthly plans.

What happens if I default before delivery?
CDcare

Delivery may be suspended or shifted until the account is regularized or fully settled.

What happens if I default after delivery?
CDcare

1. Failure-To-Return Fee applies when payment remains unpaid after the grace period 2. The item must be returned before the end of the grace period 3. If the item is not returned before the grace period ends, a Failure-To-Return Fee will be charged until the item is returned or payment is completed 4. If payment is made within one month, the item may be returned to the customer 5. After one month of unresolved default, CDcare reserves the right to liquidate the asset at fair used value, and any excess after deducting outstanding balance and charges will be refunded.

Can CDcare report my account?
CDcare

Yes. Defaulted accounts may be reported to credit agencies in accordance with applicable regulations.
