Shipping costs and delivery times are set by each brand; each brand page shows that brand's US shipping cost and whether its prices include import duties.
Yes. Mela is a discovery platform, so you purchase directly on each brand's own Shopify store, which accepts all major credit and debit cards issued in the US, including Visa, Mastercard, American Express, and Discover. No special international payment setup is needed.
