Note that unless otherwise noted, any order that includes a pre-order item will not ship until all items are available.
Please check your confirmation email for details on when pre-order items will ship. Shipping and delivery dates on these items are not guaranteed, unless otherwise noted.
While we make every effort to communicate accurate delivery estimates around your orders, unanticipated production delays for pre-order and limited edition items do happen. If an item in your order has been affected by a production delay, we will notify you via email as soon as possible.
Anything else I should know about pre-orders?
Yes! If you do place a pre-order from our store, please note the following:
- Payment is charged immediately at checkout.
- If you are ordering a pre-order item with an in-stock item, unless otherwise noted, your order will ship when the pre-order item becomes available.
- Pre-order timelines vary based on product. Please refer to the product description for estimates on when the item you’re ordering is intended to ship.
- The date listed on the product page is an estimation based on details from the merchandise provider and can vary depending upon demand.
- Details regarding delays are communicated when information is provided by the vendor. If an update has not been provided, we don’t have the information readily available yet.
Shipping
When will my order ship?
In most cases, excluding pre-orders, orders ship within 2-3 business days. Shipping and delivery dates aren’t guaranteed unless otherwise noted.
When will I get tracking information?
You’ll receive tracking info as soon as your package ships, via the email you placed your order with. Make sure to check all inboxes, including your spam folder, if you can’t find your shipping confirmation. Please note it can sometimes take up to 3 days for your tracking link to update.
How long will it take for my order to arrive, once it ships?
Domestic orders normally arrive within 3-7 days of shipping, unless otherwise noted. International orders normally arrive within 2-4 weeks of shipping. Please note that these orders need to pass through the customs office in your country before it will be released for final delivery, which can occasionally cause additional delays.
Once an order leaves our warehouse, carrier shipping delays may occur due to factors outside our control. We unfortunately can’t control how quickly an order arrives once it has left our warehouse. Contacting the carrier is the best way to get more insight into your package’s location and estimated delivery date.
Please note that shipping delays will occur if you provide an incorrect address at checkout.
If your package is returned to our facility due to a shipping error, we’ll reach out to you via the email address provided with your shipping information.

My tracking says my order was delivered, but I haven’t gotten it yet. Where is it?
Some carriers will mark a package as delivered before they actually deliver it. Though unusual, this can happen up to 5 days before an item is actually delivered. You can try contacting the carrier to get better insight into the delay. If you still haven’t received your package after 5 days, and you’ve checked with your neighbors and still don’t have it, please reach out to us at the email listed above and we’ll do our best to help!
My order is shipping to a country outside of the United States. Will I have to pay customs/import fees to receive my order?
Depending on your country, you may be charged customs/import fees. Customs charges and fees are the sole responsibility of the purchaser; we are not responsible for any additional customs charges or fees once your package has left our facility.
Customs fees are calculated based on the contents of each package. If an order arrives via multiple packages, customs fees will not increase but rather be collected upon import of each parcel.
If customs fees and charges are refused at the time of delivery, your order will be returned to us. Once we receive your package, we can refund you for your purchase. If you are unfamiliar with customs fees and charges, please contact your local postal or customs office for more information.

You will cover the cost of return shipping, except in any case where we are responsible for the cause of the return or exchange (see “Damaged, Incorrect, or Incomplete Orders”).
How long will it take for me to get a refund on my returned item?
Please allow 3-5 business days for your item to be processed. Refunds typically take 2-3 business days to appear in your account once they’ve been processed, but can occasionally take up to 10 business days.
Damaged, Incorrect, or Incomplete Orders
What do I do if my order arrived damaged, incorrect, or incomplete?
If your item arrived damaged, or you received an incorrect item, we’ll need photos to verify the damage and/or to confirm which incorrect item was shipped. This helps us understand what went wrong, and helps to make sure we prevent similar issues for you and other customers in the future.
We are only able to process a refund or exchange for damaged and/or incorrect items within 60 days from the date you received the order.
Once we receive the photos, we’ll issue a return label to you via email. Once the affected item is shipped back to our warehouse, we’ll ship you a replacement. Please reach out to our team right away by emailing us at the email listed above. We’ll resolve your issue as soon as possible!
We are not responsible for any damages to any merchandise once the item has been worn, used, or washed.
What if the item I ordered arrives and it doesn’t look like the photo on the store?
Often times the images used on the store are digital mock-ups of what the product is intended to look like. This will typically vary once the product is created and shipped out.
Feel free to reach out to our team if you feel that the product you received differs greatly from the digital mock-up on the store. Be sure to send a photo or two so our team can see the difference to better help you.
Limited Edition Items
Can I exchange my limited edition item?
Due to the limited edition nature of these items, we cannot accept exchanges of limited edition item sales.
My limited edition order shipped, but didn’t arrive due to a shipping error. How can I get my item?
If your package is returned to our warehouse due to a shipping error, we’ll contact you for an updated address via the email provided with your shipping information. If we don’t get a response within 5 business days, we reserve the right to refund your order.
Donut Media Rewards Program
How do I sign up?
Glad ya asked. First thing’s first, you sign up here and BOOM you just earned yourself 200 points for free!
I created an account but haven't received my sign-up bonus yet. When will I receive my bonus?
The sign-up bonus can take a few minutes to be added to your account. If you still don't see your bonus within 24 hours, please reach out to our customer service team at shop@donut.media.
What are the different rewards tiers?
We have two different tiers in motion: Powa and Mo Powa.
Powa is free to join (200 points at sign-up!) and you earn 4 points per $1 spent.
To achieve Mo Powa status, you must spend $150 within one calendar year on the Donut Shop to join. Once there, you’ll earn 5 points per $1 spent. Cha-Ching!
How long do I have to upgrade tiers?
Your rewards tier is based on your spending in the last calendar year. As soon as you spend $150 you will be upgraded to the Mo Powa tier. Tier status is achieved for the current year through the end of the following year. Just be sure you stay at that spending level each year if you'd like to stay in the Mo Powa tier!
How do I earn points?
Each purchase off the Donut Shop earns you points, as long as you are signed into your store account when placing your order.
Every buck spent earns 4-5 points, depending on whether you’re in our Powa or Mo Powa rewards tier. Just a heads up: points earned are based on your subtotal minus any points you’ve spent as discount codes.
What do the points get me?
For every 100 points earned, you receive a $1 off a purchase. As you rack up more points, discount gets bigger and bigger.
How are my points tracked?
Your points are tracked and added with each purchase you make. To ensure that they're being tracked to your account, you must be signed in on the Donut store when placing an order.
How can I see how many points I have earned?
To see how many points you’ve earned, you must be signed into your account on the Donut Media store. If you’re on a desktop, your total number of earned points will be viewable the top right of the store page. If you’re on your mobile device, click the gift icon on the bottom right corner to see your points total.
Are there ways to earn bonuses?
You know it! There are two ways you can snag up bonuses. First, we celebrate your birthday with a bonus: depending on your rewards tier, you’ll receive 250-300 points.
Another way to earn is by referring your buddies. They’ll receive $10 off their order of $50 or more and you’ll receive $10 off your next purchase once they complete their purchase of $50 or more.
Do points expire?
Yeah. Points expire 6 months after they were earned; however, your expiry date for all your points is pushed back each time you earn more with your rewards account. But don’t worry, we’ll send you a reminder before they’re gone for good.
How do I send a friend my referral link?
Once you’re logged into your rewards account on the Donut store, click on the GIFT icon and scroll down to “REFER YOUR FRIENDS”. Here, you can choose to send a friend your referral link by copying it and sending it, or by sharing via Facebook, Twitter, or email.
