At CustomGiftJoy.com, we’re committed to providing you with a transparent and reliable shipping experience—because your satisfaction with every step of your order matters to us. Below is a detailed breakdown of our shipping processes, timelines, and policies, tailored to keep you informed every step of the way.

1. Estimated Delivery Timelines

Total delivery time includes two key phases: order processing and shipping transit. You can expect to receive your order within 8–20 business days from the date you place it (business days exclude weekends, U.S. federal holidays, and local holidays in origin/destination regions).

2. Shipping Destinations & Fees

We currently ship to the United States, Canada, Mexico, Australia, New Zealand, the United Kingdom, France, Germany, Italy, Spain, Austria, and select Nordic countries. Below are our standard shipping options and rates (all fees in USD):

Free Shipping applies automatically to all U.S. orders totaling $59 or more (before taxes, excluding promotional discounts). All transit times begin after your order ships.

3. Payment Confirmation & Order Modifications

Once your payment is authorized and verified, we’ll send a payment confirmation email to the address linked to your order—this email confirms we’ve received your order and will begin processing it.

You may modify or cancel your order within 24 hours of payment confirmation. To do so:

1. Log into your CustomGiftJoy account → Navigate to “My Orders” → Select the relevant order → Click “Request Cancellation/Modification”;
2. Or email our support team at support@customgiftjoy.com (include your order number in the subject line) — we’ll respond with confirmation within 12 hours.

After the 24-hour window, orders are locked for processing and can no longer be changed or canceled.

For details on refunds or returns, please refer to our CustomGiftJoy Returns & Refunds Policy.

4. Order Processing Time

Processing time varies slightly by product type to ensure your items are prepared carefully and accurately:

• Regular Items (non-custom, non-personalized): 1–3 business days
• Custom/Personalized Items: 3–5 business days (specific processing time will be clearly noted on the product detail page)

This process includes verifying inventory, inspecting product quality, packing your CustomGiftJoy items securely for transit, and generating tracking information.

Important Notes:

• Processing time does not include weekends, U.S. federal holidays (e.g., Thanksgiving, Christmas), or peak seasons (e.g., Black Friday, holiday shopping periods). During these times, processing may take 1–2 extra business days, and we’ll notify you via email if delays are expected.

5. Shipment Tracking

Once your CustomGiftJoy order ships, we’ll send a shipping confirmation email to your registered email address. This email includes a unique International e-Packet tracking number, which you can use to check your package’s status anytime via our dedicated CustomGiftJoy Order Tracking Page—designed to make monitoring your order simple and straightforward.

How to Track Your CustomGiftJoy Order:

1. Visit our CustomGiftJoy Order Tracking Page
2. Enter your CustomGiftJoy Order Number and unique Tracking Number (both provided in your shipping confirmation email)
3. Click “Track My Order” to view real-time updates on your package’s location, transit status, and estimated delivery date

Note: Tracking information may take 1–2 business days to populate in our system after your order ships—if updates aren’t immediately visible, please check back soon, or reach out to our support team for help.

You can also access the tracking page directly by logging into your CustomGiftJoy.com account, navigating to “My Orders,” and selecting “Track Order” next to your relevant purchase.

6. Missing or Delayed Deliveries

If you haven’t received your CustomGiftJoy package by the end of the estimated delivery window, please first:

1. Use our CustomGiftJoy Order Tracking Page to check for updates (delays, hold-ups, or delivery attempts are often reflected here).
2. Verify the shipping address on your order—ensure it includes all details (e.g., apartment number, zip code) to avoid misdelivery (we’ll also confirm your address in your order confirmation email for reference).

If tracking shows no movement or your package is overdue, contact our CustomGiftJoy customer support team right away—we’ll work to resolve the issue quickly.

7. Shipping Delays & Compensation

Delivery timelines are estimates, not guarantees. Unexpected delays may occur due to:

• Invalid or incomplete shipping addresses
• Customs clearance hold-ups (common for international orders—we’ll provide guidance on customs requirements if needed)
• Severe weather, carrier disruptions, or peak shipping seasons

International Delay Note:

For non-U.S. destinations, transit times may extend up to 60 business days in rare cases (e.g., prolonged customs inspections or regional shipping disruptions). We’ll keep you updated via email if we anticipate a significant delay for your international CustomGiftJoy order.

Compensation for Late Deliveries (U.S. Orders Only):

If your CustomGiftJoy package does not arrive within the estimated timeline stated above, we want to make it right. We offer the following compensation options:

• $5–$10 CustomGiftJoy Store Credit (usable on any future purchase, no expiration date)
• OR a 10–15% CustomGiftJoy Discount Coupon for your next order

To claim compensation:

1. Submit a support request through your CustomGiftJoy account or via email at support@customgiftjoy.com within 2 months of your shipment date (overdue requests cannot be honored, as this helps us resolve issues efficiently).
2. Our CustomGiftJoy support team will respond to your request within 24 business hours to confirm eligibility and share your compensation details.

4. Order Cancellations

We aim to process orders quickly, but you may cancel if you act promptly:

Unpaid Orders

If you haven’t paid for your order, you can cancel it yourself via your CustomGiftJoy account. For assistance, email support@customgiftjoy.com with your order number.

Paid Orders

• Cancellations After 24 Hours: Permitted only if your order hasn’t entered processing (up to 3 business days from order placement) for a full refund
• No Cancellations After Processing: Once your order has been processed (packaged for shipping) or shipped, we cannot cancel it. You may instead follow our return process once you receive the item.

5. Refund Details

How Refunds Work

• Refund Method: Issued to your original payment method (e.g., credit card, PayPal) within 7–10 business days of our receiving and inspecting your return
• Total Time to Account: Most banks take an additional 1–3 business days to process the refund—total time from return receipt to refund in your account is typically 8–13 business days
• Refund Receipt: We’ll email a confirmation to the address used for your purchase

Exceptions

• Discounted Items: Sale or discounted items are final and cannot be refunded (may be eligible for exchange)

6. Defective, Damaged, or Mis-Shipped Items

If we shipped you a defective, damaged, or incorrect item:

• Proof of Damage: For shipping-related damage, obtain a "Proof of Damage" document from your delivery carrier (e.g., USPS, UPS) and include it with your return
• Our Responsibility: We cover all return shipping costs, and you’ll receive a full refund or free exchange—no extra fees

7. Shipping Costs for Returns

8. International Return Notes

For orders outside the U.S.:

• Return shipping may take 2–4 weeks to reach our facility

The following items are non-returnable and non-exchangeable:

• Custom or personalized items (e.g., engraved jewelry, monogrammed gifts) — unless defective or mis-made
