Website Security

Your BetaBooks online shopping experience is safe and secure thanks to the use of the SSL protocol (Secure Sockets Layer). SSL uses 128 bit encryption to protect your personal information from being intercepted by an unauthorised party and is the standard used by all reputable e-commerce sites.
Due to a growing amount of internet fraud through stolen or invalid credit card numbers, BetaBooks has found it necessary to implement stricter security measures in an effort to reduce the risk of credit card misuse. This will help safeguard ourselves and you, our customer, against any criminal activity. Some users of our site may be asked for credit card verification. You will be contacted via email should we require this information from you.
Please note that since we began trading we have not experienced one instance of credit card fraud resulting from information given to us. (Back To Top)

Returns Policy

We are happy to credit or exchange any items within 14 days, provided we receive the goods in an 'As New' condition. Returns will be approved at our discretion and all postage costs are to be incurred by the customer. If the book is damaged upon receipt, we will be unable to accept the goods and they will be returned to you.
Please email Returns with notification of the items and reason for the return and we will respond with instructions on how to proceed.
Should you be unlucky enough to receive damaged or mis-bound books, please email Returns with your specific problem and we'll get back to you promptly.
If you suspect that a shipment has become "lost in transit" we first ask you to check with your local Post Office as your parcel may be awaiting collection. If the parcel is being delivered to a commercial address, please also check with any mailrooms, reception areas within the workplace in case the parcel is being held for you. We ask that you allow us a 30 day investigation period before we can start treating the parcel as lost in transit. (Back To Top)
