We are seeing a steadily increasing proportion of orders coming in on-line as
people become ever more comfortable with the internet.
Payment can be made by credit/debit card.Pros:
No administration for the event host.
Cons: Price addition errors eliminated. Customer details never omitted. Customers should not make mistakes in their own details!
Some people do not have credit/debit cards.
Some people are unfamiliar/uncomfortable with the internet. Parker Franklin provide two alternative ways to order on-line:
All our on-line ordering is done at our www.ordermyphotos.co.uk ordering site. OrderMyPhotos is a trading name for Parker Franklin that we use for all ordering. See below and right for more details of the two on-line ordering systems. Back to top... |
