Money Back Policy
When you get your money back — and exactly how much.
Last updated: August 2026 — applies to orders within the United Arab Emirates.
💳 Full refund — we cover everything
You receive 100% of what you paid, including the shipping fee, when:
- the item arrived defective or stopped working through no fault of your own;
- you received the wrong item;
- the item is not as described on the product page;
- the item arrived damaged (report within 48 hours with a photo);
- your order never arrived;
- you cancelled within 2 hours of ordering.
In all of these cases we also arrange and pay for the return pickup.
↩️ Change of mind — what is deducted
- Accepted within 14 days of delivery, provided the item is unused and in its original packaging with all tags, accessories and free gifts.
- The return shipping cost and the payment-gateway fee are deducted from your refund; you receive the item price minus these costs.
- The original 10 AED shipping fee is not refunded. If your order qualified for free shipping (300 AED or more), nothing is deducted for the original delivery.
- We tell you the exact deduction before you confirm the return — no surprises.
🚫 What we cannot refund
- Items damaged by misuse, drops, liquid, or unauthorised repair.
- Hygiene-sensitive products once opened, perishables, custom-made orders, and digital goods or game codes once revealed.
- Items returned incomplete, used, or without their original packaging — these are declined after inspection and shipped back to you at your expense.
Manufacturing defects in any of these categories are still covered by the 1-Year Totot Warranty.
🔍 How the process works
- Request — My Account → Orders → Request Return, or message us on WhatsApp with your order number.
- Collection — free Aramex pickup for our-fault returns; drop-off or paid pickup for change-of-mind returns.
- Inspection — our quality team checks the item on arrival and approves valid returns within 24 hours.
- Refund — issued to your original payment method (see the table below) and confirmed by email.
💸 Refund timing by payment method
