Effective Date: 20 May 2026

Section 01

Policy Overview

This policy applies to all orders placed through originalluwak.com. By completing a purchase you acknowledge that you have read and agreed to the terms below. Quality and authenticity are our highest priorities — every claim is reviewed individually by our team.

Return Eligibility

We accept returns under the following circumstances:

  • The product was damaged during shipping and is unusable
  • The product has expired upon arrival (for packaged items with an expiration date)

To be eligible, the item must:

  • Be in its original packaging, unopened, and unused

  • Be reported within 7 days of receiving the order
  • Include an unedited unboxing video for damage or wrong-item claims

Non-Returnable Items

For health, safety, and quality assurance reasons, we cannot accept returns for the following:

  • Coffee beans, ground coffee, or any perishable items that have been opened or used
  • Products with minor external packaging damage that does not affect product quality
  • Customised roast profiles or special-order green bean quantities
  • Items purchased as part of clearance or promotional sales

Refund Policy

We offer refunds only under the following conditions:

  • We are unable to fulfil your order due to stock unavailability

  • Your authenticity claim has been verified as accurate by our QC team

Refunds are processed within 7–14 business days after approval and issued via the original payment method. Processing time may vary depending on your bank or payment provider.

Important: Shipping fees and any down payments are non-refundable. Refunds will not be granted for customer errors such as ordering the wrong product or changing preferences after dispatch.
