Placing an order
When you place an order, you should receive an acknowledgement e-mail confirming receipt of your order. We then carry out a standard pre-authorisation check to make sure there’s enough money on the card.
We only accept your order once payment has been approved and we have debited the payment card (and then the contract is made based on these terms).
You may be able to cancel (not change) your order within a short period after ordering – timings depend on your chosen delivery method.
All orders are subject to availability and confirmation of the order price. Don’t worry, if there’s an issue with an order, we’ll get in touch with you.
Very occasionally, we may need to refuse or cancel an order or close or freeze an account (even if we have previously confirmed your order) – e.g. if we notice something unusual on an order or an account. If this happens to you and you think we’ve made a mistake, please don’t take offence – get in touch at the earliest opportunity and we will endeavour to get back to you asap with a resolution.
While our vendors are under obligation to ensure their listed products accurately depicts and described the actual product, however, If we discover an error for any goods you’ve ordered, we will work with you and the vendor concern to resolve it asap.

Before you finalise your order, you’ll be given various delivery options to choose from with estimated delivery time and dates depending on the delivery address.
Returning an unwanted item
We get it, sometimes something just doesn't work for you and you want your money back. Don't worry, as long as an item is still in its original condition and still within stipulated cooling period i.e. the time frame beyond which items cannot be accepted for returns, our vendors are obliged to accept returns for free but you may bear the cost of postage, subject to the rules below, which includes rules around fair use.
You have 14 days to return a product in its original state and packaging, unused, unsoiled and undamaged. We aim to refund you within 14 days of receiving the returned item.
If you request a refund for an item during the above time frames but you can't return the product to the vendor for some reason, please get in touch - but any refund will be at our discretion.
We don't accept returns for unwanted items after the relevant returns period above. If you try to make a return, we may have to send it back to your default delivery address and ask you to cover the delivery costs.
Please note this is the basic stipulation, some vendors may have additional terms.
Caveat
Note that vendors on brandcheckout.com could be from anywhere in the world, please bear this in mind if the product you wish to buy has a chance of you returning it. While a lot of vendors accept returns for free, vendors do have the right to ask that the customer bear the postal cost of returning a product.
Proof of postage
We strongly recommend you get proof of postage. As the parcel remains your responsibility until it arrives back with us, ensure that you get proof of postage in case you need to contact us about your return.
Original state
Footwear – only try on footwear on carpeted floors to protect the soles. They must also be returned with the original box (if any).
Some items can't be returned, for instance, where a hygiene strip or seal has been removed (e.g., swimwear and underwear). Please check product descriptions before you order. If you want to return underwear, swimwear, please do not remove the original wrapping/seal for hygiene reasons.
All items are inspected on return. Of course, it’s fine to try an item on like you would in a store, but don’t actually wear or use it. When trying on clothing please be careful with the item (don’t use unnecessary force) and don’t wear make-up, perfume, cologne, deodorant or antiperspirant as these can mark and leave scents on the item.
All returned items should be sent in their original condition and packaging where possible, including tags (e.g. shoes should be returned with the original shoe box).
If an item is returned to us worn, used, damaged or in an unsaleable condition, or where the above instructions have not been followed, we won’t be able to give you a refund and we may have to send it back to you. You may have to cover the delivery costs which we may do by deducting the relevant from any other valid refund due to you from the same or different order. Alternatively, we (at our sole discretion) may choose to reduce your refund to reflect any reduction in the value of an item.
Please note, we reserve the right to take legal action against you if the items you return don’t match what you ordered.
Responsibility
Returned items are your responsibility until they reach us, so make sure they're packed up properly and can't get damaged on the way!
We're not responsible for any items that are returned to us by mistake (it happens!). If we're able to locate the items (it's not always possible) and you'd like these returned to you, we may ask you to cover the delivery cost.
Please note, we reserve the right to take legal action against you if the items you return don't match what you ordered.
Promo Codes
From time to time, we may give you Promo Codes that you can use to reduce the price of specified products. Remember, it’s up to you to enter the code at checkout!
You may not be able to combine promo code for a single checkout.
Each Promo Code has its own terms, which will be made clear at the time it’s issued to you (e.g. what products, single/multiple use, when it can be used etc).
If you’re given a unique Promo Code that is meant just for you (e.g. a student Promo Code) please keep it secret and don’t let anyone else use it or abuse it (e.g. don’t post it on social media). If we think there is or has been misuse of a Promo Code in any way (e.g. selling it or sharing it with others), we can cancel your Promo Code and/or suspend or even close your account without telling you.
We don’t like to do this, but if a Promo Code can’t run properly because someone or something is spoiling the fun for everyone – e.g. fraud, tampering, technical errors or anything else that is beyond our control that affects the running or fairness of the Promo Code – we can cancel, modify or suspend the Promo Code.
