- 2–3 business days (Main Centres)
- 3–4 business days (Regional Areas)
Can I collect my order?
We currently offer delivery only. Our operations are warehouse based and not open to the public, which helps us dispatch orders faster, maintain stock accuracy, and keep pricing competitive. All deliveries are handled by trusted couriers with tracking, and you can add optional shipping insurance at checkout for extra peace of mind.
If you have an urgent request or special delivery instruction, please contact us via [email protected] or live chat and we will do our best to assist.
Which payment methods do you accept and why does my total change if I choose a method other than EFT Bank Transfer at checkout?
We accept a wide range of payment methods. All prices shown on Cliqtosave already include an EFT Bank Transfer discount, which applies only when you pay via direct EFT.
If you choose a different payment method at checkout, the EFT discount does not apply and the standard price is shown before you confirm payment.
| Payment method (standard price applies) | Typical variance vs EFT price |
|---|---|
| Capitec Pay via Ozow / Ozow Pay by Bank / Ozow Crypto (Bitcoin, Luno, Bybit & VALR) / PeachPayments (EFTSecure / Pay by Bank) | 1.80% |
| SnapScan / PeachPayments (Apple Pay) | 3.55% |
| PayFast / PeachPayments (Card Payment, Scan to Pay & 1Voucher) / Ozow Card Payment | 4.20% |
| Ozow Cash Voucher (1Voucher) | 4.85% |
| PeachPayments (ZeroPay, Payflex & Happy Pay) / Ozow Happy Pay | 6.45% |
Example: If a product shows R1,000 with the EFT discount and you choose a method listed above with 3.55% variance, the standard price shown at checkout would be R1,035.50. You will see the total before payment.
Variances reflect partner processing models and may change. EFT Bank Transfer has no additional variance. Last updated: 28 Sep 2026.

Do you offer bulk discounts?

Do you provide formal quotations?
Yes, we provide formal quotations for products available on our website. Please email your request to [email protected] and include the product SKU or product link so we can prepare an accurate quote.
I found the same product cheaper somewhere else. Can Cliqtosave match the price? Recommended
Yes. If you find the same product listed at a lower price from another reputable South African online store, please share the product link with us through live chat or email [email protected]. We will review the offer and do our best to match or beat the price, depending on costs, stock availability, and market conditions at that time.
Do you provide insurance on shipping?
Yes. We offer both insured and non-insured shipping options at checkout. For extra peace of mind, you can select optional shipping insurance at 2.5% of the product price. This covers your order in the unlikely event of loss or damage during transit. If you do not select this option, your shipment will be sent without insurance.
Do you offer Free Shipping?
Yes, we offer Free Shipping on orders above R2,499. Please note that larger or heavier items might incur a courier surcharge. We will notify you after your order is placed if any additional surcharge applies.
Volumetric note: A surcharge may apply if the package’s volumetric weight
(length × breadth × height ÷ 4000) exceeds 10 kg.
I thought shipping was free over R2,499. Why did I receive an email from Cliqtosave saying there is a courier surcharge on my order? Recommended
We completely understand that this can be confusing. Here is why:
At Cliqtosave, we strive to offer the best product prices in South Africa. To make this possible, our Free Shipping on orders above R2,499 applies to orders within 10 kg actual or volumetric weight.
However, courier companies charge extra for shipments exceeding that range, based on package size, weight, and distance.
Rather than increasing our product prices for everyone, we prefer to keep prices low for all customers and only apply a courier surcharge when needed.
This approach ensures fair and transparent pricing while allowing us to absorb most standard delivery costs.
You can always request a shipping quote before placing an order by simply sending us the product SKU or product link/URL through live chat or emailing [email protected].

Lightning-Fast 8000 Hz Wired Performance
The Keychron C1 Pro 8K is a wired TKL (80%) custom mechanical keyboard built for speed. An 8000 Hz polling rate — adjustable from 125 Hz right up to 8000 Hz — delivers faster input registration, near-instant triggering and ultra-low latency, so every keystroke lands with precision. Powered by an Arm Cortex-M4 chip and open-source QMK firmware, it gives gamers and typists across South Africa serious responsiveness with endless room to customise.
Program Everything with QMK, VIA and Launcher
Open-source QMK firmware with VIA support means near-limitless customisation. Using the browser-based Keychron Launcher, you can remap keys, record macros and fine-tune shortcuts on Windows, macOS or Linux — no software to install. Because the firmware is open source, the community can review it for safety, giving you complete confidence and control over your inputs.
A Refined, Acoustically Tuned Typing Experience
The C1 Pro 8K is tuned for sound and feel from the inside out. Layers of sound-absorbing foam, PET film, IXPE film, bottom-case acoustic foam and a silicone bottom pad work together for a satisfying, thocky typing sound and consistent key feel. Pre-lubed Keychron Super switches glide smoothly, plate-mounted stabilisers keep larger keys steady, and OSA-profile double-shot PBT keycaps resist shine and stop the legends fading.
Hot-Swappable and Built to Personalise
Make it truly yours. The hot-swappable PCB accepts almost any 3-pin or 5-pin MX-style switch (Cherry, Gateron, Kailh, Panda and more) with no soldering required. South-facing RGB lighting shines cleanly through from the typist’s angle — even with non-shine-through PBT keycaps — for vivid, even backlighting you can tailor key by key.
Comfortable, All-Day Ergonomics
Designed for long sessions, the C1 Pro 8K offers three adjustable typing angles (4.8°, 8.5° and 10.7°) and curved OSA-profile keycaps that work together to support your wrists. A system toggle plus included Windows and macOS keycaps let you switch seamlessly between platforms and save separate layouts for each.
