Simple, fast and secure: Prepaid budgets for your orders
The ZEISS Prepaid Budget is the ideal way to buy accessories online in the ZEISS Metrology Shop. As with a prepaid telephone card, you purchase a credit balance with the prepaid budget and can then pay for your orders with this credit balance until it is used up. The top-up is easy and uncomplicated online. The prepaid budget is valid indefinitely. You have maximum control over the process: you determine who can order via a prepaid budget. Prepaid budgets are suitable for small and large companies, as up to ten employees can share a prepaid budget. The detailed order history in the ZEISS Metrology Shop shows you at any time what was ordered by whom and when. And best of all, because you get a discount on our prepaid budgets, you save cash with every order you pay with the budget!
Why should you use prepaid budgets?

1. Prepaid budgets increase your flexibility and bring full process control
You can authorize up to ten employees to call up a prepaid budget. They can then independently dispose of the budgets at any time and according to your internal specifications. In addition, you can freely name your prepaid budgets. This allows you to allocate your budgets to specific departments or machines, for example.

2. Prepaid budgets are transparent
Orders placed on a prepaid budget are completely transparent, even if they are placed across multiple areas or locations. After each budget call, you receive a detailed account statement with all relevant information: ordered products, value of goods, delivery address and the ordering person. Of course, you can also see how much credit your budget has left. You can find this information in the ZEISS Metrology Shop in the "My Account" section under the "Prepaid Budgets" tab. In future, you will also be able to manage your authorizations there independently.

The purchase of a prepaid budget is also worthwhile financially. Depending on the amount of the purchased budget, you save money, because you already get a discount when buying the budget. If you select a prepaid budget as your payment method, your customer-specific discount will be removed, as you already received a special discount when you purchased the prepaid budget.

You have to order a spare part quickly, but the internal ordering processes take too long? With prepaid budgets, you can quickly order urgently needed goods without having to go through the entire approval process every time. The buyer orders a budget once and can then authorize employees to order required accessories from this budget in the shop. This way you can ensure that your measuring instruments are always functional.
