Once your bank has transferred the funds, Ethica Diamonds is immediately notified, you will receive a confirmation, and your order is processed. Order times may vary based on receipt of bank wire payment. If you have any questions about the process involved in a bank transfer, contact your bank or call Ethica Diamonds on 01872 222248.

Credit Cards
We accept all major credit cards including Visa, Mastercard and American Express.

Layaway
Ethica Diamonds also offers layaway payments for both UK and international customers

Items will be held for up to 12 months from the initial date of sale. 

If before the end of the stated layaway period, the goods have for any reason become no longer available in the same condition as at the time of the sale, Ethica Diamonds will refund any deposits or payments made under this layaway transaction. 

Ethica Diamonds layaway purchases require an initial deposit of 20% of the purchase price.

Layaway purchases require a regular minimum payment on the 1st or the 15th of every month after the initial deposit as agreed with our customer service team. Minimum monthly payment is either a) 5% of the total order value or b) £100, whichever is lower in value. Customers may make an additional or larger payment at any time.

Layaway orders must be paid in full within 12 months from the original date of purchase. For orders not paid in full after 12 months, Ethica Diamonds reserves the right to discontinue the hold on the layaway merchandise.

The layaway deposit may be refunded or applied toward an exchange item within 30 days of purchase, with the exception of custom designed, custom engraved, modified merchandise, or special orders which are non-refundable and non-exchangeable.

Layaway payments are non-refundable after 30 days from the initial purchase date. Should customers need to cancel their layaway purchase before shipment and after the 30 days from the initial purchase date, a restocking fee of 20% of the full purchase price will be deducted from the amount paid, with the remaining balance to be applied as store credit.

Layaway ring orders, with the exception of custom designed, custom engraved, modified, or special orders which are nonrefundable and non-exchangeable, may be resized within 30 calendar days of the ring being shipped from Ethica Diamonds.

Other Options
If you would like to finalise your purchase using multiple credit cards or a combination of payment methods, please call us on 01872 222248.

What is layaway?

Layaway is an instalment-based payment plan that allows you to pay for your jewellery over a period of weeks or months. Instead of paying for your purchase after you receive it, you can make layaway payments before you receive your purchase.

Can you do a payment plan for an engagement ring?

Yes, you can select a payment plan for an engagement ring if you would prefer to pay it off over time. Review our financing options or contact our customer service team to see which plan might be the right fit for you.

What do I do if my credit application is declined?

If your application was declined, your lender may be unable to give you specific reasons why. Lenders use information from your credit report, alongside your income and expenditure data to make a lending decision. If you feel that there has been a mistake, please contact your lender – their contact details will appear on the email informing you that your application was declined.

You can also contact the Credit Reference Agencies if there is a mistake on your credit report:

Experian
Equifax
Transunion

Discounts & Promotions

When you finance a jewellery purchase, you are borrowing money from a financial institution. Ethica Diamonds do not receive the full payment upfront. Instead, we receive payments over time, and to be able to offer this interest free finance option, we are charged a cost percentage, based on your borrowing, by the lender.

This delayed payment structure makes it difficult for us to apply discounts and promotions that are typically intended for upfront payments.

Therefore , unfortunately we cannot honour discount codes or promotional incentives with finance applications.

Humm FAQ's

Who is humm?

humm Group Limited is an Australia-based company, which provides consumer finance products, credit cards, and point-of-sale finance plans designed around the core needs of today’s shoppers, retailers, and small to medium enterprises.

How do I apply for humm?

Visit humm.ie and login or sign up for an account, or just simply apply for an amount to spend with humm.

You could receive an answer in as little as 5 minutes.

How do I make my purchase using humm?

You will need to have an approved amount to spend with humm (which you can apply for at humm.ie).

You will then choose to pay with humm at the point of purchase and will be guided through the requirements to set up your Fixed Sum Loan and set up the repayments for the loan. You may be required to make the first payment at the time of purchase. The card you use to make this payment will then be used for the recurring payments to service the Loan Agreement.

Can I pay my humm plan early?

Yes, you can pay your plan off early without any additional fees or charges. You will only pay the balance owing (including interest, if any) up until the point of closure. You can make additional payments at any time, and you can do this as often as you like – simply log in to your online customer portal (you will have received an email about logging in when you made your purchase), and clicking on your agreement number, and click making a “One-Off Payment”.

What about if I return my goods I have purchased using humm?

If you need to return the goods, you do this through the normal merchant process. The merchant will then cancel the purchase, and this will process a cancellation of your loan agreement. The cancellation of the agreement will process a refund of any sums paid back to your bank card.

What happens if I miss a payment?

You can make a manual payment through your customer portal or using the quick pay link that you will receive by SMS on the due date when the payment has been declined. If no manual payment is made on the due date and the payment on the due date was declined by your Bank due to insufficient funds, humm will process a retry for the payment amount on the following day automatically around 7am. If the payment is still outstanding after the first retry then humm will levy a one off €9 late fee and will be due to be paid in addition to the monthly payment amount. If no manual payment is made during a day, humm will continue to retry for the payment plus one off fee daily for a period of 27 days.If the card for payments on file has expired, damaged and replaced, or been reported lost stolen, you will need to update the card details and make a manual payment.

Please go to My Portal Questions on the humm website here for more information. In these circumstances no late fee is applicable. If you are experiencing temporary or longer-term financial difficulties, please email humm at contactus@shophumm.com providing all relevant details of your circumstances and they will work with you to manage the situation.
