Refund Policy
Main Principles
- Fulfill orders within 5 days;
- Deliver products to customers within 60 days for merchants from South Korea;
- Provide description and images that match the products.
Please note that the refund process is carried out entirely by Joom. Customers believe that it enables them to receive a fair response. We have local operators in every region to handle problems that occur with our customers.
Valid reasons for refunds:
1. Non-delivery
If a customer requests a refund because of non-delivery, we will first check the logistics information on the official sites of the destination country’s post office/logistics company/courier services or track24.
If the logistics is traceable to the destination country post office or courier collection office, the consignee information is accurate, we will advise consumers to go to the post office or express collection point check.
Joom will issue a refund if:
- The tracking information cannot be verified, or the tracking information can be verified, but the delivery route or the delivery address is incorrect (for example, the customer is in the UK, but the tracking information indicates that the package was sent to France);
- The package is detained by the customs, destroyed or returned to the merchant;
- The package tracking information can be verified, the delivery address is correct, but the package is returned by the post office, as the customer delayed too long in claiming it;
- The customer provides proof that “there is no such package” presented by the post office, though the package tracking information could be verified, and the delivery address was correct.
- If the merchant believes that the customer described the unsuccessful arrival incorrectly, he can also provide the post office signature document to appeal.
2. Incomplete package
If a customer requests a refund for this reason, we will ask the customer to weigh what was received. We will then compare this weight with the product weight provided by the merchant. If the customer’s package weighs less than indicated by the merchant, we will contact the post office for them to confirm. Thereafter, we will decide how much to refund.
Note to merchants: Please ensure that you indicate accurate weight for your products in order to avoid any issues.
3. Product-description mismatch
Joom will deactivate products that do not match their descriptions.

Different regions have different laws; therefore, our refund policy also differs, depending on the regions. If the problem prevents the product from working normally, we will give the customer a refund without requesting the product’s return or destruction.
Joom will deactivate fake products and products that do not match their descriptions.

Refund Period and Rules
- Within the customer guarantee period, i.e. 30 days from when the customer confirmed delivery of the product in the Joom app.
- Within 15 days after 75 days have passed from the date the order was placed and the customer did not receive the goods during the said 75-day period, due to “non-delivery.” This means a customer can apply for a refund between the 76th and 90th day after placing the order. Upon receipt of the customer’s request for a refund, Joom will decide whether to accept or reject it within 30 days.
- Starting from the 31st day from the order placement date (if the product has not been trackable for 20 days) if the product costs more than $50.
- Anytime, as long as the customer bears the cost of returning the package.
- Within an unspecified period, as Joom may issue refunds at any time it learns of multiple customers having received the same tracking number.
