Refund, Replacement & Cancellation Policy

Podtas sells both personalized, made-to-order products and ready-made products.

IMPORTANT

Personalized Products Are Generally Final Sale

Personalized and made-to-order products cannot normally be returned, exchanged, or refunded for change of mind, customer selection errors, or problems caused by the image or information submitted by the customer.

Ready-made products are not automatically treated as personalized products. Return, refund, or replacement eligibility for a ready-made product depends on the reason for the request, the condition of the product, the applicable product terms, and applicable law.

Contact Podtas within 30 calendar days after confirmed delivery if an item arrives damaged, defective, incorrect, materially misprinted, or materially different from the confirmed order.

COMPLETE POLICY

Refund, Replacement & Cancellation Terms

1. Scope and Acceptance

This Refund, Replacement and Cancellation Policy applies to purchases made through Podtas.com.

Podtas sells both personalized or made-to-order products and ready-made products.

Personalized products may be produced according to customer-submitted images, customer-provided information, and customer-selected product options.

Ready-made products are products sold in a pre-designed form without customer image customization.

By placing an order, you acknowledge and agree to the applicable terms for the type of product purchased.

This policy forms part of the Podtas Terms of Service.

2. Personalized & Made-to-Order Products

Personalized and made-to-order products are generally final sale because they are produced specifically for the customer and ordinarily cannot be restocked or resold.

We do not normally accept returns, exchanges, or refund requests for:

  • Change of mind after ordering.
  • The customer no longer wanting or needing the product.
  • The customer selecting the wrong personalized product or quantity.
  • The customer selecting the wrong size, color, orientation, or style.
  • The customer uploading the wrong image.
  • A blurry, pixelated, dark, overexposed, compressed, distorted, or improperly cropped customer-submitted image.
  • Image placement, scale, cropping, or orientation submitted or approved by the customer.
  • An incorrect or incomplete shipping address provided by the customer.
  • Personal preference regarding a correctly produced personalized item.

Nothing in this policy limits a consumer right that cannot lawfully be excluded.

3. Ready-Made Products

Ready-made products are not subject to the personalized-product final-sale rule solely because they are sold by Podtas.

Eligible non-personalized, ready-made products may be returned within 30 calendar days after confirmed delivery. To qualify, items must be unused, unworn, unwashed, unaltered, and in their original condition. Original packaging should be included where applicable.

For change-of-mind or other non-quality-related returns, customers are responsible for obtaining and paying for the return shipping label. Podtas does not charge a restocking fee.

Before mailing any item, contact Podtas at contact@podtas.com and wait for return instructions. Do not mail a product to the address printed on its shipping package.

After a returned item is received and inspected, approved refunds will be submitted to the original payment method within 5 days. The customer's bank or payment provider may require additional time before the credit appears.

Products that arrive damaged, defective, or incorrect, and other issues attributable to Podtas or its fulfillment partner, will be reviewed under the applicable replacement and support provisions. If a return is required for one of these issues, contact Podtas first for instructions regarding shipping responsibility.

Nothing in this policy limits a consumer right that cannot lawfully be excluded.

4. Eligible Free Replacements

Podtas may provide a replacement at no additional product or standard-shipping cost when:

  • The product arrives damaged during shipping.
  • The product has a material manufacturing defect.
  • There is a material printing or production error.
  • A personalized product is materially different from the customization confirmed with the order.
  • Podtas or its fulfillment partner shipped the wrong product, size, color, orientation, or design compared with the confirmed order details.
  • A required part of the product is missing because of a packing or fulfillment error.
  • The carrier confirms that the package was lost in transit.
  • Tracking shows no movement for more than 21 consecutive days and the carrier cannot provide a reasonable delivery update.

Approved replacements will generally use the same product, product options, delivery address, and personalization as the original confirmed order unless Podtas approves another arrangement in writing.

5. Reporting Period and Evidence Required

Eligible damaged, defective, incorrect, printing, production, or fulfillment problems must be reported within 30 calendar days after confirmed delivery.

A support request should include:

  • The Podtas order number.
  • The email address used during checkout.
  • A clear description of the reported problem.
  • A photo showing the entire affected product.
  • Close-up photos clearly showing the defect or printing issue.
  • Photos of the outer package and shipping label when the item arrived damaged or incorrect.
  • Photos showing measurements with a measuring tape or ruler when the claim concerns the physical dimensions of the product.
  • A short video when photographs cannot clearly demonstrate the reported problem.

Podtas may request additional information reasonably necessary to evaluate the request.

We may be unable to approve a replacement or refund when sufficient supporting evidence is not provided or the request is submitted after the applicable reporting period.

6. Personalized Image & Selection Errors

This section applies to personalized products that use customer-uploaded images or customer-selected options.

Customers are responsible for submitting the complete image they want printed and reviewing the available product preview and product options before ordering.

Image quality responsibility: Customers should upload a clear, high-resolution JPG or PNG image suitable for printing.

Blurry, pixelated, dark, overexposed, heavily compressed, distorted, improperly cropped, or otherwise low-quality images may affect the appearance of the finished product.

Problems caused by customer-submitted image quality are not normally eligible for return, refund, or free replacement unless the finished product contains a material production error caused by Podtas or differs materially from the confirmed customization.

Free replacement or refund support does not normally cover:

  • The wrong image being uploaded by the customer.
  • Poor quality caused by insufficient image resolution.
  • Blur, darkness, pixelation, compression, or image artifacts in the submitted image.
  • Important content positioned too close to the edge of the image.
  • Cropping caused by a mismatch between the uploaded image and the selected product shape or aspect ratio.
  • A size, color, style, orientation, or product option selected incorrectly by the customer.
  • An incorrect address or contact detail submitted during checkout.

In some customer-error cases, Podtas may offer a replacement at a discounted price. Any discounted replacement is discretionary, and the customer is responsible for the replacement charge and applicable shipping costs.

7. Normal Product and Printing Variations

Product photographs, digital mockups, and customization previews are visual guides. The finished product may not appear identical on every screen or material.

Minor variations may occur because of:

  • Computer, tablet, and phone display settings.
  • Brightness, contrast, and color differences in the source image.
  • Lighting conditions used for product photography.
  • Fabric, ceramic, metal, canvas, velvet, or other material characteristics.
  • Product size, shape, orientation, and aspect ratio.
  • Printing, cutting, sewing, pressing, and manufacturing tolerances.
  • Minor differences in image scale, position, alignment, or cropping.

A minor variation that does not materially affect the intended design or ordinary use of the product is not considered a defect.

A material printing error, severe misalignment, incorrect image or design, or major difference from the confirmed order may qualify for replacement after review.

8. Worn, Washed, Altered, or Used Products

A product may not qualify for free replacement or refund when it has been:

  • Worn beyond what is reasonably necessary to inspect it.
  • Washed or dried contrary to the product care instructions.
  • Cut, altered, repaired, or modified after delivery.
  • Damaged through accident, misuse, or improper storage.
  • Exposed to bleach, harsh chemicals, excessive heat, or abrasion.
  • Used after the customer became aware of the reported defect.

This limitation does not apply when ordinary inspection was reasonably necessary to discover a hidden manufacturing defect.

9. Shipping, Delivery, and Lost Packages

Customers are responsible for entering a complete and accurate shipping address before placing an order.

Free replacement or refund support does not normally apply when:

  • The customer provided an incorrect or incomplete address.
  • The package was delivered to the address entered at checkout.
  • The customer refused delivery.
  • The customer did not collect a package held by the carrier.
  • The package was returned because access instructions were missing.

If tracking shows “Delivered” but the package cannot be located, the customer should first:

  • Check the delivery location and surrounding property.
  • Ask household members, neighbors, reception, or building staff.
  • Allow up to two additional business days because some packages may be scanned before final delivery.
  • Contact the carrier using the tracking number.

Podtas will review available tracking information and may assist with a carrier inquiry.

A replacement is not guaranteed when the carrier confirms successful delivery to the address supplied by the customer.

Additional delivery terms are available in our Shipping Policy.

10. Order Changes and Customer Cancellations

Requests to change or cancel an order should be submitted within 2 hours after the order is placed.

Modification and cancellation requests are not guaranteed. Personalized products may enter production shortly after payment, and ready-made products may enter fulfillment shortly after purchase.

Once production or fulfillment has started, an order cannot normally be changed or canceled.

Change requests may include:

  • The uploaded image.
  • Image placement, scale, crop, or orientation.
  • Product type, quantity, size, color, or style.
  • The shipping address or delivery information.

If Podtas successfully cancels an order before production or fulfillment begins, an approved refund will be issued to the original payment method.

11. Intellectual Property and Policy-Based Cancellations

This section applies to products that allow customer-uploaded images or other customer-submitted content.

Customers may upload only images they created, legally own, or have permission to reproduce and print.

Podtas may pause, reject, or cancel an affected order when uploaded content may:

  • Infringe copyright, trademark, privacy, or publicity rights.
  • Contain an unauthorized brand name, logo, or character.
  • Contain an unauthorized celebrity or personal likeness.
  • Violate applicable law or a Podtas policy.
  • Create material legal, production, platform, or payment risk.

Podtas may request proof of ownership or authorization or ask the customer to provide a replacement image.

If Podtas cancels an affected item before production because of a content-policy concern, the amount paid for that affected item will ordinarily be refunded to the original payment method, subject to applicable law and payment-provider restrictions.

Production or delivery of an order does not mean that Podtas has verified ownership or confirmed that an uploaded image is legally authorized.

Full upload requirements are available in our Customer Upload and Intellectual Property Policy .

12. Refunds in Eligible or Exceptional Cases

Refunds are not the standard resolution for qualifying issues involving personalized products. Eligible personalized-product problems are normally resolved with a replacement.

Return or refund requests involving ready-made products will be reviewed according to the reason for the request, product condition, applicable product terms, and applicable law.

Podtas may issue a full or partial refund when:

  • Podtas cannot produce or fulfill the affected product.
  • An eligible replacement cannot reasonably be produced.
  • The product becomes unavailable after payment.
  • An affected order is successfully canceled before production or fulfillment.
  • Podtas determines that a refund is the most appropriate resolution for a verified problem.
  • Applicable law requires a refund.

Approved refunds are issued to the original payment method. Podtas cannot redirect an approved refund to a different card, account, or payment method.

We will submit an approved refund promptly, but the customer's bank, card issuer, PayPal, Shop Pay, or other payment provider may require additional processing time before the credit appears.

VIP Shipping charges, upgraded shipping fees, priority-processing fees, and other optional service charges are not normally refundable unless the related problem was caused by Podtas.

13. Replacement Resolution

When a free replacement is approved because of a verified Podtas production or fulfillment error, qualifying carrier damage, or another eligible issue:

  • Podtas will cover the replacement product cost.
  • Podtas will cover standard replacement shipping.
  • A personalized replacement will normally reproduce the original confirmed customization.
  • A ready-made replacement will normally match the product and options originally ordered.
  • The original product does not need to be returned unless Podtas provides written return instructions.

An approved replacement resolves the verified issue associated with the original item.

A replacement does not create a right to change the original product, image, product option, or customization unless Podtas agrees otherwise.

14. Returns and Return Addresses

Do not return a product unless Podtas has specifically instructed you to do so.

The address displayed on a shipping package may belong to a production facility, carrier facility, or logistics provider and may not be able to receive or process customer returns.

If a physical return is required, Podtas will provide:

  • The correct return address.
  • Return instructions.
  • Any applicable authorization or reference information.
  • Instructions regarding shipping responsibility.

Unauthorized returns may be refused, lost, or delayed and may not qualify for reimbursement.

15. Repeated, Fraudulent, or Abusive Claims

Podtas may review order history, tracking records, submitted evidence, and relevant account information when evaluating a support request.

Podtas may deny or restrict a request when there is reasonable evidence of:

  • False or altered photographs or documents.
  • Materially inaccurate statements.
  • Repeated claims inconsistent with tracking or production records.
  • Payment fraud, chargeback abuse, or unauthorized transactions.
  • Deliberate damage to a product.
  • Other fraudulent or abusive conduct.

Podtas may restrict future orders or access to support services for repeated or serious abuse, subject to applicable law.
