Returns & Refunds

Disclaimer: In the event of any discrepancy or conflict, the English version will prevail over translation(s).

Returns Policy

  1. Most items purchased from shops listed on the sleeporora Platform may be returnable within the return window under certain rules, except the ones explicitly identified as “Non-returnable”
  2. sleeporora considers refund as the default mode of grievance redressal over a replacement. A replacement is offered only if the customer is willing to get a replacement as well as the seller is agreeing to provide a replacement. In that case, a replacement will be shipped once the seller/shop accepts the returned product(s). If replacement is not agreed upon by either party, a refund may be provided, subject to the fulfilment of the terms and conditions.
  3. For the refund process, timeline, terms and conditions, kindly refer to the Refund Policy section, which follows the current section.
