Shipping & Returns Policy at Mood Merch explains how delivery, tracking, exchanges, refunds, and damaged or incorrect items are handled for our online store.
At Mood Merch, we create story-driven apparel and merchandise designed with meaning. We want your order to arrive safely and for you to know exactly what to expect when it comes to shipping, returns, exchanges, and refunds.
We currently ship using trusted delivery partners such as Courier Guy and PUDO. Orders are generally processed and delivered within 5 to 7 working days from the date that payment is successfully received and confirmed. Delivery times are estimates and may vary depending on your location, public holidays, courier delays, weather conditions, or other circumstances outside our control.
Shipping fees, if applicable, are displayed at checkout before payment is completed.
We will use reasonable efforts to deliver your order within the estimated timeframe. Under South African e-commerce law, suppliers must provide delivery timing information and, if they cannot fulfil an order, the consumer may cancel and obtain a refund in accordance with the Act.
If tracking shows your parcel as delivered but you have not received it, or if your parcel appears delayed, please contact us as soon as possible at info@moodmerch.co.za or 070 581 4879 so that we can assist.
