Online returns are accepted within 14 calendar days of receipt of delivery. Returned products must be sealed and in original condition, unused and in tact.

Ordered wrong teaIf you just placed your order, have confirmed that the tea has not shipped, please contact us immediately, and we should be able to refund your order and issue a new one. If your tea has already shipped or was delivered, please submit an exchange / return request per our return policy so we can understand how to make it right.
-
Discount codesEach order can have just one discount / promo code applied. If you'd like to apply a discount / promo code to an order you've already placed, please reach out to our Customer Support team immediately. Provide them with your order number and the promo code you'd like to use. Note that we cannot guarantee we'll be able to retroactively apply the discount to your order, as each discount / promo code has unique terms and conditions. Also, we cannot apply any such codes to orders that have already shipped. Not all discount / promo codes are eligible to use on all items. If your code isn't working, double check the terms and conditions to be sure your order is eligible. If some items in your cart are eligible for the applicable discount, then only those items will receive the discount.
-
Taste profile returnsOur Support Team is available to make suggestions via phone, text or chat. This does not mean in anyway that a customer is required or pressured to purchase the suggested tea. It is, A Suggestion. Therefore, we cannot accept a return of opened product that a customer does not care for due to a Team Member suggestions. Also, you can order tea samples so you can try a small amount if you're unsure of a taste profile. Hopefully you can find a friend or family member that will love the tea and you can kindly gift it! Thank you for your understanding.

When will my order shipOrders are shipped Monday through Friday, excluding Holidays. Steepologie Teas is a small batch artisanal blender so every batch blended and packed for the very best quality and freshness. Please allow up to 14 business days in addition to your shipping time. We utilize different shipping carriers to provide you the best possible service. However, from time to time we are awaiting fresh ingredients or may be in the middle of blending a fresh batch of a tea you ordered. Thus, there are some occasions where it takes a little longer to ship an order. You can always contact our Customer Support team with questions.
-
Changing shipping addressSteepologie processes orders as quickly as possible, which means we may not be able to update shipping addresses before packages are processed. Once an order is shipped, the shipping address cannot be changed. In these cases, we recommend establishing a mail forwarding address. If you need to update your shipping address and your order hasn't shipped yet, please reach out to our Customer Service team with your order number and new address as soon as possible!

Cancelling ordersWe cannot cancel orders once they've been placed. Even if there is a gap of several days between placing the order and it shipping, the orders have been pulled and packaged and placed in shipping containers for shipping, making it impossible to sort through to retrieve. You can return your unopened order within 7 days for a full refund minus the shipping cost. Thank you for your understanding!

Transit timesAll orders are shipped from our warehouse outside of San Antonio, TX in the USA. Packages shipped with standard shipping typically take 2-5 business to be delivered. International shipments can take an additional 1 to 2 weeks. All shipping estimates begin from the time a package is scanned into transit upon pickup. Steepologie Teas is not affiliated with USPS, UPS or Fedex and delays, scanning and failure to deliver on their end is in no way connected to Steepologie Teas. Once a package has left our facility all communication on transit times will have to go through the carrier. The only exception is when a package is returned to our facility.
