Questions about payment
You can conveniently charge your Volkswagen Pay E-Wallet via direct debit, Visa or Mastercard.
The Volkswagen Pay E-Wallet – by Volkswagen Payments S.A. – is like a personal digital wallet in which you deposit the reservation amount. Hence, the money is still in your possession. The amount will remain in the wallet until you finalize your order or your reservation is cancelled. In both cases, the reservation amount will automatically be refunded. Once you have created your Volkswagen Pay E-Wallet, you can use it as a simple and convenient way to pay for services like parking or charging.
Even with the ID.3 1ST special edition you can benefit from attractive leasing and financing offers. Please contact your local Volkswagen dealer.
Once you have ordered a vehicle, the reservation amount will be released in your Volkswagen Pay E-Wallet and transferred back to your bank account or credit card. It cannot be offset against the purchase price.
After you have ordered or even when you have cancelled your reservation, it will take a maximum of five working days for the reservation amount to be credited from your Volkswagen Pay E-Wallet to your bank account or your credit card. If the refund fails for whatever reason, Volkswagen Payments S.A. will immediately get in touch with you to find an alternative solution.
You can select another method or try again later.
For now, you cannot use the reservation amount for other products or services. If you want to use your reservation amount otherwise, you can always cancel your reservation for the ID.3 1ST special edition. The reservation amount will then automatically be credited back to your bank account or credit card.
The reservation amount will automatically be credited to your bank account or credit card.

When you order your vehicle or cancel your reservation, the reservation amount will automatically be refunded.
No additional fees will be charged.
