WHAT IS THE OXFORD INSTRUMENTS E-STORE?

The new Oxford Instruments eStore is a new initiative bringing together all of the Oxford Instruments business units in one place. Customers can shop for a wide range of items which include both physical products like general consumables, spare parts for systems and accessories as well as virtual products such as training, LiveAssist remote support billable hours (through a merged reality app) and SoftWare upgrades.

HOW CAN I PLACE AN ORDER AND PAY FOR IT? 

Our new eStore accommodates all types of order and offers all B2B functionalities to allow customer to place orders or create an order from a PO without the support of a Customer Service.

If you pay by credit or debit card or paypal then you don’t need any support, simply add items to your cart and then choose the payment method you prefer.

If instead your company or university requires a PO or is required to pay against a pre-issued invoice, then you need to email us to request a credit line to be opened for your MyOi account. To do this, please register your MyOi account and send your request to by email to ecommerceteam@estore.oxinst.com .

Once the ecommerce team will confirm by email that your MyOi account has been assigned a credit line, then a new payment method will display in the payment section called  “Terms 30”. Once you select it, you will be able to complete the order, receive your products and be sent an invoice to pay within 30 days.

If you have a credit line for your MyOi account you will be able to place any order until the maximum monthly budget assigned to your MyOi account is reached.

If you have a PO you can also enter the PO online and create an order your self, as you can edit “ship to” and “invoice to” information. You can also add the PO number before you place the order and it will appear on your invoice. Please note you will still need to request a credit line to be opened for your MyOi account

I AM AN EXISTING OXFORD INSTRUMENTS CUSTOMER, DO I NEED TO ANYTHING? 

As an existing Oxford Instruments customer, you will most likely already have an account set up with one of our business units. This account will not automatically transfer over to the new store.

Please consider that our ecommerce is run by a 3^rd party vendor, Modus Link, so you may need to set them up as a vendor in your system.
