Puratek Peptides User Review: Good products. Shady payment process.
-
Whoever is on here from Puratek. You guys use to be great. Just fix your payment methods to be back like they use to be. No one wants to do all that crazy verification stuff. When we order from Walmart.com or Macy’s.com we don’t have to do that. The whole reason people are ordering, and paying more, from US based Vendors is to not have to jump through hoops with Crypto and other stuff. By implementing these new payment processes you have removed the reason to order from you. If someone has to jump through hopps anyway they will just order from the grey market and pay 1/10th the price.
After you fix the payment methods to how they use to be, just come back on here and tell everyone it is fixed. BUT, if the payment methods remain like they are, no one cares about friendly people, candy in with their order or even if your product is good or not… -
You guys take it to a different level, you guys need to chill. every company out there is changing the payment methods due to mastercard going after businesses after payments are made... c'mon guys in what world you live? peptide world is complicated and constantly change. you really need to chill....

It actually doesn’t matter. If people don’t want to go through that hassle, they won’t. So no matter what is said on TG, Here, or any other forum won’t matter. People will simply not order from them when they can order from a vendor who doesn’t do this. There are a ton of reliable vendors out there they do not have this payment process mess, people will simply use one of them. -

At the fear (not really) of being ridiculed for “somewhat” defending Puratek. Their product is good. My go to for singles. But there new payment system sucks. But their products are top notch.
I still wouldn’t order from them anymore if I had to send passport or driver license pictures. Not because I care about anyone knowing my identity, but for fear of identity fraud… -
@nolimitcop that's not nice, the fact is all your post are on Puratek, chill out join some conversation.

I bought a couple of singles before they started that mess a couple of months ago; I posted about it then.

Hi everyone, this is Tony from Puratek. Wanted to jump in and clarify some things around the payment process, since it seems like there's been some confusion.
We've never required ID or facial verification for standard orders. Throughout this whole period we've had a traditional payment option available, it was PayPal originally, and we've recently transitioned to a different processor that works the same standard way. Either way, it's a normal checkout: no photos, no extra steps, just a regular card payment you would encounter on any site.
The verification a few of you ran into only applies if you choose the ByteNFT option at checkout. That payment method settles on the back end through cryptocurrency, and because of that, it falls under KYC (Know Your Customer) regulations, which legally require identity verification for crypto settled transactions in some, not all cases. It's not something we added arbitrarily, it comes with the territory of offering that payment rail. If you'd rather avoid that process altogether, the traditional option skips it entirely.I understand why this looked concerning if it wasn't clear which option was selected or why one method asked for more than another. That's on us for not communicating it more clearly at checkout, and it's something we're actively improving. We've also been refining the ByteNFT flow to make it smoother for those who do prefer it. To be clear: no one has ever been required to submit ID to order from us. That requirement has only ever been tied to specific transactions when choosing the crypto settled option, and there has always been a standard payment method available that doesn't involve any of that.
Glad to answer questions here, or feel free to call the number listed on our site, always happy to address any questions or concerns.

Thanks for the update and clarification. Nice to see a well crafted and clear response from an owner.

@Puratekpeptides
I have bought from you a few times. I do like your products.
To avoid confusion I would put a brief description under each payment option.
PayPal CC checkout “No picture required, normal checkout”
The other option is”If you choose this option you will be required to upload a photo, bla, bla bla…”
Otherwise people will still be going on forums and posting that they were asked to upload a picture, etc..
I would just make it clear under the payment option and you won’t run into this in the future. Communication is key… -
@puratekpeptides That's odd, as I tried to pay with a CC and might have clicked the wrong area. I agree with @commander, you need more clarity in the payment instructions. Thanks!
