Sweet Southern Charm — Exchange & Store Credit Policy
We’re committed to delivering products you love and a shopping experience that’s just as sweet! But we understand that sometimes, things don’t work out. Please review the details below regarding returns and store credit.
📌 General Policy Overview
-
Store Credit Only: All eligible returns will be issued store credit only. We do not issue refunds to the original payment method. This also applies to cancelled or duplicate orders.
-
No Exchanges: Due to high demand and limited quantities, we do not offer exchanges. If you want a different item, we recommend purchasing it separately and initiating a return for the original.
-
Shipping Costs: Shipping fees are non-refundable, and customers are responsible for the return shipping cost.
-
Lost, Stolen, or Damaged Packages: If you added Checkout+ to your order at checkout, your package is covered. Submit a claim through our returns portal at Returns & Claims Portal and once approved, we'll get you taken care of with a same-item replacement or store credit. If you did not add Checkout+, Sweet Southern Charm is not responsible for lost, stolen, or damaged packages. Please contact USPS directly using your tracking number to file a claim, and any resolution will be handled by the carrier on a case-by-case basis.
-
Returned-to-Sender Packages: If a package is returned to us, the customer must cover the cost of reshipping.
Order Cancellations:
We allow a 15-minute cancellation window from the time your order is placed. Cancellation requests must be submitted by email to info@sscgiftstore.com within 15 minutes of purchase. This policy applies 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, including outside of business hours. Requests received after the 15-minute window are not eligible for cancellation.
Approved cancellations will be refunded to the original form of payment, less a 10% restocking/ processing fee, which will be deducted from the refund amount.
Checkout+:
Checkout+ is an optional add-on you can select at checkout that covers both your return shipping and your package while it's on its way to you.
- Free Return Shipping: If you need to send an eligible item back for store credit, your return shipping label is covered, no label fee.
- Package Protection: If your package is lost, stolen, or damaged in transit, submit a claim through our self serve Returns & Claims Portal. Once approved, we'll send a same-item replacement or issue store credit.
A few things to know: Checkout+ cannot be cancelled or refunded after purchase, and it will not be included in your store credit amount. Coverage cannot be added to an order after it has been placed.
