When you checkout of InfoShop.com.au, we will validate your credit card to ensure that your card has not been lost or stolen. If there is a problem, you will be notified via email.
If there is a problem with one of your credit cards you can always use one of your other cards on file.
Info Cash
If you are selling items on InfoShop.com.au, you can now use your profits and commissions you have earned to purchase products on InfoShop.com.au (including your own products). For every $1 earned, you now have $1 in InfoCash! You can spend InfoCash to purchase any item offered on InfoShop.com.au.
- Just choose the items you wish to purchase and checkout as usual.
- Use your InfoShop.com.au account information when entering the checkout process.
- When you reach the payment screen, we'll show you how much commission you have available to spend in the form of Info Cash. You'll then have the option to apply your InfoCash towards your purchase.
If you don't have enough InfoCash to completely pay for an order, we'll simply discount the order using your available InfoCash, and allow you to pay for the remaining amount by using our various payment options.

Tax and GST
InfoShop.com.au is an Australian based company and as such trades in Australian Dollars [AUD] and must collect a 10% Goods and Services Tax (GST) on all sales originating in Australia. All prices shown within InfoShop.com.au as shown inclusive of the GST. We will itemise the GST on the payment screen during the checkout process. The GST is collected and remitted to The Australian Tax Office (ATO).
If you open a store on InfoShop.com.au and earn commissions you may be deemed by the ATO to be earning an income and may be subject to tax. To avoid InfoShop.com.au withholding any tax on the ATO's behalf you will need to tell us when opening your store:
- Your Australian Business Number (ABN). If you don’t have an ABN you can register online and for free at www.abr.gov.au, or
- Indicate that your Shop represents a Hobby under the ATO guidelines, or
- Indicate that you are tax exempt. The most common tax exemption is that you are not an Australian Resident. If you are not an Australian Resident, all purchases you make will be GST exempt and all sales you make will be tax exempt.

Your income is transferred to you at the end of the following month in which the sale was made. This allows time for any returns to be received and processed.
