PAYMENT BY BANK CHEQUE IS NOT ACCEPTED!
Below you can find the allowed ways of payment:
Bank transfer
This is a common money transfer between Banks. The speed of the service ( 3-7 days) depends on many different factors, in particular on the quality of the Bank chosen by the buyer. Even the Bank fees depends on the personal service conditions. For EU buyers it is also important to know that, according to law, money transfers from EU country to EU country cost must be as much as for domestic ones.

Paypal
It is also allowed to pay by credit card through Paypal system service. All you need is to have a credit card and to register yourself free of charge to Paypal ( www.paypal.co.uk ). Straight after the registration, you may purchase for a maximum value of € 700. After the registration Paypal will send you (through your credit card transaction sheet) a code for the service activation that you must insert on the Paypal website in order to change this limit up to the one allowed by your credit card .
The service works as follows:
It transfers money from the buyer’s credit card to the Paypal account of the receiver.

The transfer of the money is immediate. The advantage offered by Paypal to the buyer is a guarantee of full amount reimbursement in case of not delivery of the paid goods.
Cash on delivery
This way of payment is allowed for oil paintings sent without frame only. This kind of service is not available for all countries. The buyer will pay an additional fee of 5 Euro to Arte dal Mondo and a variable fee to the post office of destination. This last fee, depending on the Country of destination, should be known before choosing this kind of payment (we suggest you to apply to your nearest post office for information, in order to prevent any unpleasant surprise).
Cash on delivery is surely one of the most expensive payment solution, but often chosen by on-line buyer beginners, who mistrust and prefer paying at the goods receipt.
Actually this kind of payment gives to the buyers only a sort of physiological safe since the postman does not allow anyone to check the parcel’s contents before paying!
Western Union money transfer
It is a fast system for transferring money. To perform such a service the sender should go to the nearest Western Union agency with the receiver’s information, an identity card and cash. On the Western Union website www.westernunion.com an automatic research system will find for you the W.U.’s agency to you.
Who sends money will pay a commission fee on the transferred value and will receive a code to be communicated to the beneficiary. The beneficiary must use this code in order to withdraw the money from any Western Union agency.
Cash
Payment by cash is always accepted as long as the currency is Euro. Whoever decides to send the money by mail service, will be fully responsible for that and is also advised to ensure the total amount of dispatch.
