Payment & Delivery

There are several payment options available.  We accept Master card and Visa card payments online, or you can choose to pay by direct debit.  If collecting from our shop you can also pay by cash.  

If you wish to pay by direct debit, please deposit into our bank account:

Direct credit's will usually show in our account the following day, except on weekends when payments will not show till the following Tuesday. Please add your name as the reference for the deposit so we can confirm the payment is for your order.

Payment by Visa or Master card is offered on all items, and is both quick and easy through our online payment system, eWAY. We use BNZ and eWay to accept Visa or Master card payments. All payments are in New Zealand dollars. Taupo Rod and Tackle is a NZ owned and operated business, and the name Taupo Rod and Tackle will appear on your cardholder statements for any transactions made through this website.

We accept cash as payment for pickups only. Please do not send cash in the mail. If you wish to pay when collecting your items in store, please select the "Direct Debit" payment option, and the "Pick-up In Store" option when selecting delivery methods.

We endeavour to send your parcel out as soon as possible after receiving payment. If you pay by credit card before 12pm we will endeavour to send your parcel out that day also. Our couriers are 2 day services to all main centres in the North Island, and for the South Island are 3-4 days (Please note these times are estimates only). For rural deliveries, please allow an extra 2-4 days above the normal delivery time. For P.O. Box deliveries, we use Parcel Post. Please allow up to 5 days for Parcel Post deliveries. Note, not all items can be sent to P.O. Boxes.

We offer fixed rate shipping of $6.00 per parcel for standard items (including most fly tying materials) and $12.00 for larger items such as fishing rods and waders. The shipping fee will be calculated automatically at check out.  

All deliveries have track and trace and you will be provided these details once items have been dispatched. 

We are happy to accept international orders. Please contact us for a quote on international shipping fees.

If an item in your order is out of stock, it may be placed on back order.  (NB Not all products can be back ordered.  We only allow back orders for items we know we can re-order quickly).  

You will be notified if any items in your order are placed on back order.  If these items will be available in under 5 days, we will hold your order until all items are ready to be shipped.  If it will take more than 5 days to source the back ordered items, we will send part of your order immediately, and the back ordered items will be sent separately when they become available.  In this case, we will pay the shipping costs.  You can contact us if you wish to remove any back ordered items from your order.
