Privacy and Security

What security measures do you put in place to protect my identity and financial information?

Your privacy is very important to us. In order to protect your identity and financial information, we encrypt all communications between you and our servers. Well.ca strives at all times to protect the security and privacy of any information you provide over the internet to Well.ca.

I do not wish to use my credit card, are there alternatives?

Of course! We do offer Interac online, Visa Checkout and Paypal, as alternative payment options. Please note that all Well.ca orders must be placed online. We do not accept phone orders.

Why does Well.ca ask to remember my credit card number?

During checkout, you have the option to have us remember your credit card number for future purchases. This makes one less step in checkout the next time you come back to visit us again! We will never make any charges to your credit card unless you're making a purchase on Well.ca.

How does Well.ca remember my credit card number?

To keep your personal information safe, Well.ca employs a new technology called "payment tokenization" to remember your credit card information. That's just a fancy way of saying we don't actually store any information about your credit card number at all! Instead, when you complete a purchase we use your credit card number to get a secret token - a special random string of letters and numbers that has nothing to do with your credit card information - from the credit card payment provider. Then, when you want to make your next purchase, instead of sending your credit card number to the credit card payment provider we send the secret token. Just like all of our other financial transactions, this is done over a secure, encrypted communication line. We're the only people that will see your secret token and even better, we're the only people the secret token will work for. No one else can use your token to make purchases on your credit card.

How many credit card numbers can I save?

You can save a maximum of five credit card numbers. We'll ask you to save a new credit card for each combination of billing and shipping addresses you use - this way we can be sure it's you the first time we ship or bill to a new address!

How can I securely change the email address on my Well.ca account?

To make any changes to the email address associated with your Well.ca account, please reach out to our Customer Care team.

Coupons

How do I use a Well.ca Coupon Code?

Add the products that you'd like to purchase to your shopping cart - keep in mind, your discount will not be subtracted from the price yet. Proceed to checkout, and as soon as you get to "Step 2 of 3" of the checkout process (on the same page that you give your payment information) you'll notice the "Coupon Code" field.

Can I redeem a manufacturer's coupon?

We cannot accept manufacturer's coupons. If you have a coupon that has been issued by Well.ca you can redeem it in checkout.

Why isn't my Coupon Code working?

There are a few different reasons why a coupon may not be working. First things is to ensure that you're entering your coupon into the "Coupon Code" box in checkout EXACTLY as the code is written & use the "Apply" button. Lastly, please double check the email or card through which you were provided the code to double check the expiry date. If you're still experiencing some difficulties using your coupon code, please reach out to our Customer Care team.
