VEJASTORE pays special attention to the security of online payments. Your banking information is transmitted to our server in an encrypted manner using the SSL (Secure Socket Layer) protocol and transferred to our bank in a completely secure environment via Adyen. This information is not stored under any circumstances.
Transactions are fully secured through the online payment system of our banking partner. Your bank details only circulate on the Internet in encrypted form, meaning they are encoded to make them completely unreadable. Additionally, they are only processed by Adyen and are never in VEJA's possession. In fact, when you enter your card number to make purchases on VEJA, you are actually transmitting them to Adyen.
From a technical standpoint, the security system relies on 128-bit SSL (Secure Socket Layer) encryption.

We know that many fake VEJA sneakers are sold around the world.
We have seen fake VEJA promoted on social media, fraudulent sellers advertising, and scammers creating fake websites to steal credit card numbers.
VEJA is firmly committed to fighting counterfeiting. Our legal teams and partners monitor and take action against the unauthorized sale of counterfeit VEJA products.
Authenticate
If the price seems too good to be true, it is likely a counterfeit.
We do not participate in commercial events like Black Friday or private sales.
We never advertise, so if you find sponsored posts or ads claiming to be VEJA, they are not affiliated with us.
If the domain name includes a country, city, or the words “sale”, “promotions”, it is likely a fraudulent website.
