How and when money comes back to you. Read alongside our Returns Policy, which sets out when a refund applies.
When a refund is issued
- The pair failed authentication and was not shipped
- The seller did not dispatch within the required window and the order was cancelled
- You received the wrong item, and the claim was accepted
- The pair arrived damaged in transit, and the claim was accepted
- The order was never delivered
- We cancelled the order for any reason on our side
Refunds are not issued for change of mind, size or fit — see Returns.
How much you get back
Where the fault is ours, the seller's, or the courier's, you are refunded in full — the item price, shipping, and any authentication service fee.
How it is refunded
Always to the original payment method. We cannot redirect a refund to a different card, account or UPI ID.
- Card — 5–7 working days after we process it, depending on your bank
- UPI / net banking — 3–5 working days
- Wallet — usually within 48 hours
- Cash on Delivery — by bank transfer to an account you provide; 5–7 working days
We initiate the refund within 2 working days of approving it. The time after that is your bank's, not ours — but if it has not arrived within 10 working days, contact us with your order number and we will chase it.
Discounts, gift cards and loyalty points
- A discount code used on a refunded order is not reissued unless the cancellation was our fault.
- Gift card value used on a refunded order is returned to the gift card balance.
- Loyalty points redeemed are credited back to your account.
Partial refunds
Where only part of an order is affected, we refund the affected item plus its share of shipping.
