At Power RC Models, we understand that fast, secure payments are as important as the performance of your RC vehicle. Whether you’re stocking up on 1/8th scale nitro kits or upgrading your 1/10th electric buggy with premium bearings, we offer multiple trusted payment options to get your gear moving quickly.
Your Payment Security Comes First
We use military-grade 256-bit SSL encryption on all transactions, ensuring your payment details are protected with the same level of security used by major banks. Our checkout process is PCI-DSS compliant, and we never store your full payment information on our servers.
Accepted Payment Methods
Visa
The world’s most recognized payment network is fully supported at Power RC Models. All Visa credit and debit cards are accepted, including Visa Electron. Ideal for quick purchases when you need those last-minute race day parts.
MasterCard
From standard MasterCards to premium World and World Elite cards, we accept all major variants. Many professional RC competitors prefer MasterCard for its robust fraud protection and easy international transactions.
JCB
Our international customers, especially those in Japan, appreciate our JCB support. This payment method is perfect when ordering Agama kits or specialty bearings that ship worldwide (except some Asian regions).
PayPal
The preferred choice for RC hobbyists who value an extra layer of security. PayPal lets you checkout without directly sharing your financial details with us. Great for larger purchases like Arrma RTR models or complete airbrush setups.

Common Payment Questions from RC Enthusiasts
Can I split payment between two cards?
Currently, our system processes single payment method transactions. For large orders (like multiple 1/8th scale kits), we recommend using PayPal which allows balance/card combinations.
Do you accept RC club purchase orders?
While we primarily serve individual hobbyists, organized racing clubs can contact us at [email protected] to discuss bulk purchase arrangements with invoice payment options.
Why don’t you accept American Express?
Due to higher processing fees that would impact our ability to maintain competitive pricing on Arrma and Agama products, we’ve opted to focus on the payment methods most used by our global RC community.
Is there a payment method you recommend for international orders?
For customers outside North America, PayPal often provides the smoothest experience with automatic currency conversion and strong buyer protection for international shipments of delicate items like bodyshells and bearings.
