Delivery · 3 questions

How long does delivery take?

Most orders arrive in 10 minutes. Larger orders or distant addresses may take up to 30 minutes — the ETA is shown before you check out.

Do you deliver to my area?

Enter your pincode on the home page — if we're live in your area you'll see local shops. We're expanding zones every week.

What if no one is at home?

Our delivery partner waits for 5 minutes at the door. After that the order returns to the shop and you'll be charged a restocking fee.

Orders · 3 questions

How can I track my order?

Once your order is placed you'll get an SMS with a tracking link. You can also view live status under My Orders.

Can I cancel an order after placing it?

You can cancel within 2 minutes of placing the order, before the shop accepts it. After acceptance, contact support to request a cancellation.

Why was my order rejected?

Shops can reject orders when an item is suddenly out of stock or they're at capacity. You'll be refunded automatically within 24 hours.

Payments · 2 questions

Which payment methods do you accept?

UPI, debit/credit cards, net banking, and cash on delivery. Saved cards are tokenised through our PCI-DSS-compliant gateway.

Is my payment information secure?

Yes — we never store full card numbers. All transactions go through certified payment processors with end-to-end encryption.

Refunds · 2 questions

How do I get a refund?

If your order is cancelled or has a quality issue, refunds are issued automatically to the original payment method within 5-7 working days.

What if an item is missing or damaged?

Open the order under My Orders → Report issue within 7 days of placement. Pick the issue type (missing item, damaged, wrong item, etc.), tell us what happened, and attach up to 5 photos.

The shop acknowledges within 24 hours and resolves with a refund, a replacement, or by declining with a reason — and you get an email at every step.
