We recommend paying the extra fee for signature confirmation for insurance on your package. In addition, we are not liable to replace or refund orders due to loss or theft, if they are scanned as delivered by our delivery partners. If you do receive a replacement order, the same rules apply.
I bought items at full price and they are now on sale. Can I get a refund on the discount amount?
Unfortunately, we do not offer refunds for items bought at full price before a sale period.
The products I received arrived damaged or defective. What are my options?
If you receive damaged items, we require that you inform us within 7 days of the item's delivery by emailing hello@inka.world. We then have 5 business days to investigate what went wrong and respond with a way to remedy the situation. In some cases we do require that damaged goods are sent back to our warehouse for inspection. The damaged items have to be unused and in their original packaging to be eligible for return. If you have contacted us outside of the 7 day window, the goods cannot be returned or refunded. We are only liable to replace the products that are damaged or defective, not any products that had been delivered in satisfactory condition. If you would like to return all products for a full refund, please contact us to proceed this route.
I have been using my Inka products for sometime now and am unhappy with them. Can I get a refund?
No, our products do not come with a warranty. We ask customers to closely inspect their products upon receiving them as once they are used we cannot refund or return them due to product hygiene restrictions.
