Your Online Profile, including your name, email address, and password, is used to keep track of your orders, and allows you to save information (addresses, credit card data) that will make it easier and quicker to check out in future.

Each time you visit you must log into your Online Profile to complete an order or view account information.

The amount of stock in our web store is updated a few times every hour. Nevertheless, it is possible to order an item that, while labeled “In stock”, may have gone out of stock between updates. You will be notified by mail, email, and/or phone if this occurs, depending on the nature of the product and the requested shipping method.
Problems can occur during shipment. If your order arrives damaged, immediately (within 5 business days) contact the carrier who delivered your product to report the damage. Save the packing slip and packaging materials for evidence. Then call our toll-free number (877-373-0706) to report the problem. We will work with you to settle your claim.
Backordered items will be shipped according to the shipping option selected at the time of original order. You will be charged for shipping your complete order (including backordered items) with the initial shipment, but no additional charges will be incurred when the backordered items are shipped.
We are required to collect sales tax in certain states. To qualify for tax-exempt status email a copy of your state tax exempt certificate to credit@augsburgfortress.org. Once this is on file with us your purchases on that account will not include sales tax.
Once you provide a shipping address during checkout, we display to you an estimated delivery date. This is based on the shipping method you’ve selected. We offer several shipping options to help you receive your order in a timely fashion.

There are many causes for viewing issues; upgrading to the latest versions of Adobe Acrobat and your web browser can cure most of these. To upgrade to the latest version of the FREE Adobe Acrobat Reader, click Acrobat Reader. If you are experiencing problems printing an Adobe Acrobat document, you may need to update your printer driver. Contact the manufacturer of your printer for information on updating your printer driver. Additional help is available at Adobe Acrobat Support.

Unlike a credit card statement, the Augsburg Fortress Publishers statement is only a listing of any unpaid invoices on your account. Once an invoice is paid, it will no longer appear on your statement. Contact Sales & Service to request a summary of account activity at any time.
When making a payment, we ask you include the invoice coupon for all the items you are paying. If the amount of your check does not equal the invoice coupons included with it, we will do our best to match what you intended to pay with your open invoices. Most often, unapplied payments are duplicate payments that have been made on the same invoice. If we have applied a credit to an invoice prior to your payment posting, it will leave the overpayment on your account as an unapplied cash item.
A good rule of thumb is 7-10 business days from the date you mailed the payment.
Call Sales & Service (877-373-0706) to request a summary of account activity at any time.
We use an automated banking process called “Lockbox” to process your payments. Notes written on payment coupons are not always read, as a machine posts the payments to the account. For questions or concerns about your statements or invoices, please contact our Sales & Service department at booksales@broadleafbooks.com, or 877-373-0706.
