Register an Account as an NHS Organisation
It is absolutely no problem to place an order on behalf of an NHS institution. When registering your account, simply register under the name of your practice manager, purchaser, lead GP or however your office prefers. Then, you will find a section below titled, "Company/Doctor's Office"; this is where you will enter the name of your surgery, hospital, clinic, etc. From there, the process is quite simple. Fill out the rest of the form with the office address and VAT registration number (if applicable). That's it!
Now you will have successfully created a Praxisdienst account, registered to your organisation. You may use this account for all future orders and you will never need to enter your information again. You will also be given a personal contact with whom you may discuss any questions regarding orders, products, etc.
Don't Want to Register? No Problem. Order as a Guest!
We understand if you do not have the time to register and we also understand not wanting to add another account and another password to your likely already-extensive list. While there are many benefits of having an account with Praxisdienst, you are more than welcome to place an order as a guest. If you ever change your mind, it is no problem to turn your guest account into an official account at any time. Just let our customer service know and they will get you set up in no time!
Ordering and Payment
Place an Order
NHS and business customers receive the same great benefits as all of our customers with the added benefit of the ability to order on account! Furthermore, if your office prefers to send purchase orders, then we will gladly accept them by email to info@praxisdienst.com.
Another fantastic benefit of registering your surgery or clinic with Praxisdienst is our convenient order alarm. This handy tool tracks the rate at which you burn through your consumables, for example, and makes suggestions on products and quantities for future orders. Learn more about the order alarm.
Of course, the simplest way to order is to use our online shop. Seek out the products you need, place them in your trolley and head to the checkout. Follow this link for full details on how to order.
Make a Payment
We offer NHS organisations, public institutions and business customers many convenient payment options. In addition to payment with credit card, we also accept payment via bank transfer, PayPal and payments on account–whichever your organisation prefers.
Note: we do not accept payment information over the phone. As an added measure of security, we do not accept credit card information or any other form of payment information over the telephone. If you wish to pay your invoice per credit card, please let us know so that we can send you a secure payment link.
On Account
Many NHS facilities, hospitals, universities and other public institutions pay for their orders by invoice once the products arrive. This practice is quite common and is the preferred method of payment for many organisations. Praxisdienst is happy to facilitate this payment method for qualifying customers and the process could not be simpler:
- After collecting the products in your trolley and inputting your billing/shipping address, simply select the payment method, "On Account".
- Once you have reviewed your order details for accuracy, select the final option, "Order with obligation to pay".
- You have now successfully placed an order on account.
Please understand that we will review the order details to ensure that the order was indeed placed on behalf of a qualifying surgery, clinic or institution.
Our standard terms of payment for orders on account are NET 10 days after receipt of the goods. If you feel you need more time, please contact us and we will work with you to facilitate payment within a reasonable time frame. Once you are ready to make the payment, you may send it to one of our bank accounts or we can provide you with a secure payment link for paying with your surgery credit card or PayPal account.
Advance Payment
If your office prefers to take care of business before the goods are shipped, but you are not quite ready to pay, then the payment in advance option allows you to place your order and then pay when it is more convenient for you. With this option, we will wait to ship your order until we have received your payment. Just as with above, this option is also available through the online shop.
PayPal
When ordering through the online shop, we also offer you the convenience of an immediate transfer via PayPal. This ensures that the funds are received right away and the order can be processed immediately.
Credit Card
Another preferred method of payment is via credit card. If your surgery prefers to use a company credit card to pay for your orders, then you are more than welcome to do so. During the online ordering process, simply choose the payment option "Credit Card" and proceed. You will then be asked for credit card information at the end of the ordering process. Please understand that for your safety, we do not accept credit card information over the phone nor through email.
Transferring Payment
When transferring funds for your order, please reference the order number that we provided you so that we may more easily attribute payment to your account. Please also be sure to account for the 1-3 days transfer time needed by the banks if taking this route.
