Returns & Refunds
Effective 9 September 2026
The short version
- 30 days from delivery to start a return.
- Items should be unused and in their original packaging.
- Sale items are returnable, on the same terms as everything else.
- If we sent the wrong item or it arrived damaged, we pay the return shipping.
- Refunds land 5–10 business days after we receive and inspect your return.
01The 30-day window
You have 30 days from the delivery date to request a return. Contact us within that window — the item doesn't have to be back with us by day 30, it just has to be requested by then. Once approved, please send it within 14 days.
02What you can return
Most products, if they're:
- unused and in the same condition you received them;
- in their original packaging, with any seals intact; and
- accompanied by your order number or other proof of purchase.
Discounted, promotional and clearance items follow the same 30-day terms as full-price items. Your refund is the amount you actually paid.
If an item is ever excluded, it will say "Final Sale" clearly on the product page before you buy.
If a free gift came with the order and you return enough to fall below the promotion's threshold, we'll ask you to return the gift too, or we'll deduct its value from your refund.
03What you can't return
- Gift cards.
- Downloadable or digital products.
- Opened ingestible products — supplements and gummies — once the safety seal is broken. This is a product-safety requirement; we can't resell them. Unopened supplements are fully returnable.
- Items marked "Final Sale" at the time of purchase.
These exclusions don't apply if the item is defective, damaged, or not what you ordered — see section 6. Nothing here limits rights you have under consumer protection law.
We may issue a partial refund for items returned damaged, missing parts, or with significantly less product than when shipped, where that's not our fault.
04How to start a return
- Email us at customercare@chaeorganics.com with your order number, which items you'd like to return, and why.
- Wait for approval. We'll reply within 1–2 business days with return instructions and the return address. Please don't ship anything back before you hear from us — unapproved returns can't be matched to your order.
- Pack and send. Include your order number in the box, and use a trackable service.
- We inspect and refund. We'll email when your return arrives, and again when the refund is issued.
05Refunds and timing
Once we receive and inspect your return, we'll email you to confirm whether the refund is approved. Approved refunds go back to your original payment method.
| Stage | Typical timing |
|---|---|
| We receive and inspect your return | 1–3 business days |
| We issue the refund | 1–2 business days after approval |
| Your bank posts it | 5–10 business days |
Original shipping charges aren't refundable unless the return is our error. Rewards points earned on a refunded order are reversed. If you paid partly with a gift card or store credit, that portion is refunded as store credit.
06Damaged, defective or wrong items
If your order arrives damaged, is defective, or isn't what you ordered, we cover it completely — replacement or full refund, including original and return shipping.
Email us within 7 days of delivery with your order number and a photo of the item and packaging. Photos help us resolve it quickly and improve our packing. We'll send a prepaid return label or arrange a replacement, whichever you prefer.
07Exchanges
The fastest way to exchange something is to return the original for a refund and place a new order — that way you're not waiting on our inspection before the replacement ships.
If you'd rather exchange directly, email us. We handle direct exchanges for defective or damaged items at no cost to you.
08Subscriptions
You can cancel a Subscribe & Save subscription at any time, with no fee and no minimum number of orders, from My Account or by emailing us.
- Cancelling stops future renewals. It doesn't automatically refund an order already processed.
- If a subscription order has already shipped, return it under the normal 30-day policy above.
- If a renewal charged after you cancelled, tell us and we'll refund it in full.
- You can also pause, skip or reschedule a delivery instead of cancelling.
09Gifts
If an item was marked as a gift when purchased and shipped directly to you, you'll receive store credit for the value of your return once we've received it.
If the order wasn't marked as a gift, or was shipped to the buyer to pass on later, the refund goes to the original payment method — which means the person who bought it will see the refund.
10Return shipping
For change-of-mind returns, you pay return shipping, and original shipping charges aren't refunded. For damaged, defective or incorrect items, we pay — see section 6.
We recommend a trackable shipping service, and insurance for higher-value returns. We can't issue a refund for a return we never receive, and we're not responsible for items lost in transit back to us.
Return address
Chaé Organics LLC — Returns
23300 US Highway 160
Walsenburg, CO 81089
Before you ship
Email us for approval, and include your order number in the box.
11International returns
International returns follow the same 30-day terms. You're responsible for return shipping and any duties or customs charges. Please mark the package clearly as a returned item so it isn't charged import duty again — we can't refund duties charged on a return.
Original duties, taxes and customs fees you paid on delivery aren't refundable by us. You may be able to reclaim them from your local customs authority.
12Late or missing refunds
- Check the account tied to your original payment method again — refunds post to the original card, not your bank balance directly.
- Contact your card issuer. Posting times vary, and 5–10 business days is normal.
- If it's been more than 10 business days since our confirmation email, email us with your order number and we'll trace it.
