We do not accept American Express or Diners Club cards online, however we continue to accept these cards in our stores. 

This is because neither American Express nor Diners’ Club cards operate with 3D Secure (the one-time PIN process that verifies many other cards like Visa and MasterCard). 3D Secure is best practice in e-commerce, and as we are constantly working to protect the safe online shopping of our customers, we have to insist on 3D Secured cards.
