Frequently Asked Questions
Orders & Shipping
Where do you ship?
We currently ship to the United States, Canada, the United Kingdom, most European Union countries, Australia, Japan, Singapore, Malaysia, and New Zealand.
All international shipments are Delivered Duty Unpaid (DDU), which means duties and taxes charged by your local government are collected by your customs office or delivery carrier, not at checkout.
What are your shipping timeframes?
Shipping times are estimates and can vary based on carrier performance, weather, and customs processing.
- U.S. standard: 5–10 business days
- U.S. priority: 2–5 business days
- Canada: 2–5 business days
- Australia: 5–12 business days
- New Zealand: 6–10 business days
- United Kingdom: 6–10 business days
- Most EU countries: 6–14 business days
- Cyprus, Greece, Ireland, Malta,
- Norway, Switzerland: 7–15 business days
- Japan: 8–12 business days
- Malaysia: 8–10 business days
- Singapore: 6–7 business days
We don’t guarantee exact delivery dates, but we’ll always do our best to get your order moving quickly.
How does Priority Delivery work?
Within the U.S., we offer Standard and Priority Delivery options. Orders placed before 12 PM CT (Monday–Friday) with Priority Delivery will ship from our warehouse the same day, and typically reduce transit time by about 3–5 business days compared to Standard. Orders placed after 12 PM CT, on weekends, or on U.S. public holidays will ship the next business day.
For international orders, shipments typically leave our fulfillment centers the same day if placed before 1:30 AM GMT / 2:30 AM Central European Time (CET). Placing your order before this cutoff can help reduce overall shipping time by approximately 3–5 business days compared to orders placed after that time.
Do you ship to Alaska, Hawaii, or Puerto Rico?
Yes, we do. Orders to Alaska and Hawaii ship via Priority only (FedEx 2Day One Rate) and aren’t eligible for free shipping. Orders to Puerto Rico are also supported, but free shipping isn’t available for this destination.
Who pays duties and taxes for international shipments?
All international orders are shipped DDU (Delivered Duty Unpaid). This means:
- Duties, taxes, and import fees are collected by your local customs authorities or carrier.
- These charges are not included in your order total at checkout.
- We may still collect applicable VAT or sales tax at checkout where required by law, and this is separate from any import duties or fees that may be charged on delivery.
Customs processing may introduce additional delays beyond the transit times listed above.
Do you offer free shipping?
Free shipping minimums by country/region:
- Continental USA: $75 USD
- Canada: $180 CAD
- Australia: $120 AUD
- United Kingdom: £75 GBP
- Most European Union countries (except Malta and Cyprus): €80 EUR
- Bulgaria, Czech Republic, Denmark, Hungary, Poland, Romania, Sweden: $95 USD equivalent
- Japan, Malaysia, Singapore: $95 USD equivalent
- New Zealand: $95 USD equivalent
Quick reminders:
- Free shipping is available on standard shipping only and is based on your post‑discount product subtotal (taxes not included).
- Any applicable duties and import taxes are still the customer’s responsibility and may be collected by local customs or the carrier.
- For countries and regions not listed above, we do not offer free shipping due to distance and/or certain tax restrictions.
- If your cart does not meet the minimum for your region, you’ll see real‑time shipping options and rates at checkout.
- Keep in mind that any savings applied at checkout—such as automatic discounts, free gifts, discount codes, or gift cards—will reduce your subtotal and may affect whether you still qualify for free shipping.
Can I change or cancel my order after placing it?
You have a one-hour window after placing your order during business hours (8 AM–5 PM CT, excluding weekends and holidays) to request a change or cancellation. After that, the order may already be processing and changes are not guaranteed. Once an order ships, it cannot be canceled, but it may qualify for a return under our 30-day satisfaction guarantee.
If a carrier returns a package because of an incorrect or incomplete address, failed delivery attempts, or refusal at delivery, we will contact you after it is processed. You may pay to have the order reshipped or receive a refund of the eligible product purchase price. Original shipping charges are not refundable, but no restocking fee will be deducted.
I ordered on Amazon—who do I contact?
For orders placed on Amazon:
- Delivery changes, tracking updates, and refunds must be handled directly through your Amazon account and Amazon Customer Service.
- We don’t have access to modify or manage Amazon shipping details from our side.
The main differences:
- Amazon: Access to Prime and Amazon‑specific discounts.
- bestself.co: Exclusive bundles (often around 20% off combined retail), select products not sold on Amazon, and occasional inserts, postcards, and special anniversary boxes included in your package.
Returns & Refunds
What is your return policy?
Eligible physical products purchased directly from BestSelf.co are covered by our 30-day satisfaction guarantee. Contact us within 30 calendar days after delivery to request a return. Products may be opened and reasonably tried; they do not need to remain shrink-wrapped.
There is no restocking fee. Customers are responsible for return shipping for satisfaction or change-of-mind returns; BestSelf Co covers the appropriate costs for damaged, defective, missing, or incorrect items. Email support@bestself.co with your order number to begin.
Are there any other return considerations I should know about?
Return requests must be started within 30 calendar days after delivery. After a return is approved, ship it using the provided instructions within 14 days. Original shipping charges are not refundable unless the return is due to our error or a damaged, defective, missing, or incorrect item. There is no restocking fee.
What condition do items need to be in?
Products may be opened and reasonably tried; they do not need to remain shrink-wrapped. Return the product and any components included with it. Products must not be intentionally damaged, altered, incomplete, or used beyond what is reasonably necessary to try them.
Do you offer exchanges?
We do not offer direct exchanges. In some situations we may arrange replacements (for example, certain defects or significant issues), but restocking or other fees may still apply.
My package shows as delivered, but I can’t find it / it was stolen. What should I do?
Contact support@bestself.co promptly so we can help investigate with the carrier. If tracking shows no delivery or the package appears stuck in transit, contact us as soon as possible and no later than 30 days after the last estimated delivery date.
What if my order arrives damaged or with corner dings?
Contact support@bestself.co within 30 days after delivery with your order number and clear photos of the product and packaging. We will review the issue and provide a replacement, refund, or other appropriate resolution. BestSelf Co covers the appropriate replacement or return costs for damaged, defective, missing, or incorrect items.
When will I receive my refund?
After your return is received and inspected, we will refund the eligible product purchase price and applicable tax to the original payment method. There is no restocking fee. Banks and card issuers typically take 5–10 business days to post a processed refund. Original shipping charges are not refundable unless the return is due to our error or a damaged, defective, missing, or incorrect item.
Are digital downloads refundable?
Digital download sales are final and non‑refundable once the order is completed and the files are made available to you. Because these products are instantly accessible and can’t be “returned” like physical items, they aren’t eligible for returns or exchanges.

Are your products LGBTQ+ friendly?
Yes—our conversation decks and relationship tools are designed to be inclusive and work for all kinds of relationships and identities. Prompts are written in gender‑neutral language wherever possible.
Where are your products made?
We’re proud to be a global company with responsibly sourced materials. Our products are assembled or printed in Colombia or China, depending on the item.
What if I receive an older version of a product?
We’re consistently updating and improving our products so you can get the most value from every tool you use. Most updates are cosmetic (such as new colors) or small content improvements, like adding extra sections or prompts in response to customer feedback, while keeping the core content and functionality the same. If you believe you’ve received an older version of a product, please email support@bestself.co right away with clear photos of the item, the packaging, and your packing slip. We’ll review your case to confirm which version you received and make sure everything is still complete and usable.
Because older versions remain fully functional, we’re not able to offer full refunds or accept returns solely on the basis of receiving a previous version.
Corporate & Bulk Orders
Do you offer bulk or corporate orders?
Yes, we offer bulk ordering and corporate gifting options. To unlock our bulk discounts, simply add your desired items and quantities to your cart and the applicable discount will automatically be applied at checkout.
We also have a wholesale presence via Faire for retailers at bestself.faire.com.
You may also check out these sections in our website for more information:
Do you offer custom or logo‑branded products?
At this time, we do not offer personalization or custom logo branding on our products. You can still use our existing tools for corporate gifting, workshops, and team events without customization.
How do I place a bulk or corporate order?
Bulk order discounts are automatically applied on checkout:
- Buy 10+ units → get 25% off
- Buy 30+ units → get 30% off
- Buy 70+ units → get 35% off
- Buy 100+ units → get 45% off
You can visit our Corporate Gifting and Wholesale & Bulk pages for a quick overview of how bulk orders work and which products are eligible.
If you’d like help choosing the best items for your team, event, or organization, fill out our Wholesale/Bulk Order contact form and we’ll follow up with tailored recommendations.
Are bulk order discounts available on bundles?
Bulk order discounts apply only to single, standalone products purchased in qualifying quantities. Our bundles are already discounted from the combined retail value of each item in the bundle, so they aren’t eligible for additional bulk discounts.
Are there other things I should know about bulk order discounts?
Bulk order discounts are available both in the USA and internationally.
You don’t need a retailer license to qualify—we also extend these discounts to corporate customers purchasing office supplies, gifts, team tools, and similar use cases.
Because these bulk discounts are already a significant savings, they can’t be combined or stacked with discount codes or other promotions.
Discounts & Promotions
Do you offer discounts?
From time to time, we run promotions and share discount codes with our community through email, social media, and special campaigns. Availability and details may change throughout the year.
Is there a special discount for FAQ readers?
Yes—thanks for taking the time to get informed. Think of this as a little treasure for those who read the fine print.
Use code FAQS10 at checkout to get 10% off your order, one time per customer.
Why did my free gift disappear when I added a discount code?
Our system can only handle one type of deal at a time—either a free gift or a discount code. When you add a discount code like FAQS10, any free gifts in your cart may be removed so the discount can apply correctly.
A few important notes about discount codes and free gifts:
- Only one discount code can be used per order.
- Discount codes are not stackable with other codes, automatic discounts, or promotions.
- If you just placed an order, you can use FAQS10 on your next purchase, but we can’t apply discounts retroactively.
- If your cart includes free gifts, adding a discount code may remove those free gifts from your order.
Can I use more than one discount code?
We know a good bargain is hard to resist, but our checkout only accepts one discount code per order. Only one code can be applied at a time, and FAQS10 can’t be combined or stacked with any other discounts or promotions.
