All orders for purchase are subject to approval.
The Installment Plan allows a buyer to pay for an order in equal consecutive installments of desired even numbers of weeks or months e.g 4 weeks, 2 months, 6 months etc. Any duration for payment as chosen by a Buyer must run its course and the duration cannot be reviewed by the Buyer once item(s) has been processed for delivery. Buyers can request to change their installment plan before reaching the midpoint of the chosen installment plan, or before delivery is processed as the case may be; for instance a Buyer who indicates an interest to purchase an Item(s) for a duration of say 6 months will only be entitled to request for delivery of such Gadget(s) after 3 months from the date of commencing payment and provided that 50% of the purchase price has been paid as and when due in accordance with the chosen installment plan.
A Buyer who pays up 50% of the purchase price before half of the chosen duration (midpoint) for payment runs its course shall ONLY be entitled to request delivery when half of his chosen duration for payment (midpoint) is reached while a Buyer who pays up 50% of the purchase price as and when due shall be entitled to request delivery 15 days after half of his chosen duration (midpoint) for payment is reached.
Instalment plan may be changed only 10 days before a Buyer reaches half of the duration (midpoint) of chosen instalment plan provided always that if the review extends the payment period beyond what was earlier chosen, the Buyer shall have to wait until half (midpoint) of the new chosen period is reached before requesting delivery, notwithstanding that the Buyer has paid half of the purchase price.
Buyer(s) are liable to pay for the delivery of Item(s) ordered before delivery of the ordered Item(s) will be processed.
A Buyer who desires to change his/her chosen installment duration/plan for payment shall reach out to CDcare via the means provided by CDcare for that purpose and proceed as follows:
Go to “History” tab on the CDCare app, click on the order, click on more options and proceed to change to the installment plan.
The Buyer shall wait for approval from CDcare indicating whether the proposed new duration is acceptable or not. If the proposed duration for payment is acceptable to CDcare, the Buyer’s payment plan shall be reviewed accordingly, provided always that until the Buyer receives the approval of CDcare that the change in duration has been accepted and approved accordingly, the initial chosen duration for payment shall stand and shall continue to run its course as if no request for a change of installment plan/ payment duration has been made by the Buyer.
Once the change of installment plan/ payment duration is approved by CDcare, the Buyer shall be liable to immediately pay the amount due on the approved plan, if any.
CDcare solely reserves the right to approve or not approve a Buyer(s)’ application to change his/her initial chosen installment plan/ duration for payment.
