Refund policy

How Do Returns Work?

When you shop with Ritual Unions, you enjoy confidence – the confidence of knowing that if you are not completely satisfied with your purchase, you can simply return it to Ritual Unions and we will provide you with an exchange, refund or repair within the guidelines outlined below.

All refund rights under both State and Commonwealth law apply.
Our goods come with guarantees that cannot be excluded under the Australian Consumer Law. You are entitled to a replacement or refund for a major failure and compensation for any other reasonably foreseeable loss or damage. You are also entitled to have the goods repaired or replaced if the goods fail to be of acceptable quality and the failure does not amount to a major failure. If the failure is minor, we reserve our right to offer to repair only or partial credit or refund. We reserve the right to not offer a refund or an exchange coupon.
