December Mare Sale - Tattersalls

Notices to Purchasers
Credit/Debit Card purchases
Payment for horse purchases up to a value of 40,000 guineas may be made by credit
card or debit* card. A surcharge of 1.5% will be applied for credit cards while debit card
transactions will be processed without charge.
If you intend to utilise this method of payment, please advise your credit/debit card provider of
your intentions prior to your arrival at the Sales. This should reduce the time taken by the credit/
debit card provider to authorise the transaction when it is processed. Alternatively,
pre-authorisation can be obtained prior to making a purchase. For further information on
this procedure, please speak to a Tattersalls representative at the Accounts desk.
From February 2006, in accordance with new UK banking requirements, all credit and
debit card transactions will have to be authorised by the cardholder using their PIN number.
Please ensure that you have memorised your PIN number.
* certain issuers only by debit card
