Yes. We want to make sure you are happy with our products and offer a 30-day money back guarantee. This is available when you purchase with a check or Visa, or MasterCard credit card.

For purchases with American Express or Discover cards, a 3% fee is charged since those cards do not refund their fees when we issue credits.

Purchase Orders

Although FMS reserves the right to deny purchase orders on a case-by-case basis, FMS generally accepts purchase orders from Fortune 500 companies, Government Agencies, Non-Profit organizations, and existing customers in good standing. We can only accept purchase orders from companies within the United States. Copies of Purchase Orders must be emailed (sales@fmsinc.com), faxed (703-448-3861), or mailed to us, and they must include your shipping and billing addresses, and phone numbers. Terms are NET 30.

All international orders must be prepaid by check, credit card, or wire transfer. We require that all international payments be received prior to shipping our products.

ACH and Wire Transfers

Please contact us for our account and ABA routing numbers for ACH payments and international wire transfers. Please make sure we receive the amount due on your invoice. You are responsible for the fees your bank charges.

Please note that wire transfers often take several business days to clear, and we cannot ship orders until we receive a confirmation from our bank.

COD (Cash on Delivery)

FMS does not accept payment by COD.
