How to place an order for flower delivery to Israel
For someone who orders flowers from abroad to Israel there are 4 obstacles: 1) In every country there are different types of flowers and a different kind of flower delivery culture. 2) Language and communication difficulties. 3) There is a difficulty in making a safe money transaction (giving credit card details on the phone is not safe). 4) in a case of a controversy between a customer from abroad and the flower shop, the customer has limited meanings in a prosecution against the shop.
Because of these problems, it’s important for someone who wants to order a flower delivery to Israel, to choose a reliable, professional and trustful online flower shop with the following capabilities:
1, English user interface.
2. WYSIWYG – “What You See Is What You Get”. For each flower bouquet, in every size, there has to be display of an authentic photo, a quantity breakdown of the main types of flowers and detailed description of each and every size of the bouquet.
3. For each flower bouquet there has to be an explanation for the meaning and symbolism of it as it custom in the Israeli culture. In such way even a Japanese person, who is not familiar with the Israeli culture, can choose an appropriate and suitable flower bouquet for an event.
4. The online flower shop must accept credit cards issued abroad and not just Israeli credit cards. As so, the payment clearing must be made online according to the PCI international security standard. Furthermore, it is important that the website will not collect the credit card details, and right after the order is complete, will send to the customer’s email a copy of his order details.
5. The service should include a flower delivery notification with a photo of the bouquet's delivery to the recipient, so that the customer abroad can see exactly what was delivered to the recipient in Israel.
6. The policy of the online flower shop must be clear and must include an obligation to work according to the General Public Trust Rules and Consumer Protection Act. This policy assures that the business will be fair, reliable and therefore can be trusted.
7. The store must obligate that they are sending fresh flowers right from the supplier to the customer home and that the flowers are being transported in an air-conditioned vehicle and in a bucket of water.
8. The online flower shop has to offer same day delivery as well as future deliveries.
For conclusion, it is recommended for customers from abroad to order flower deliveries only from an online flower shop who fulfill the requirements stated above (such as the website of “Balizer Flower Delivery”)
