Refund Policy

Eligibility

Refund requests must be submitted with your order number. Please contact us as soon as possible if there's an issue with your order.

Valid reasons for a refund

- Wrong item delivered
- Item damaged or spoiled on arrival
- Order not received
- Significant unexplained delay

Non-refundable items

Opened spice products cannot be returned or refunded once used, for hygiene and safety reasons — except in cases of damage, spoilage, or an incorrect item being sent.

Refund scope

Refunds are processed for the full order amount. Partial refunds for individual items within a multi-item order are not currently supported.

Delivery fees

If your order has not yet been delivered, the delivery fee is refunded along with the rest of your order. If your order has already been delivered, the delivery fee is non-refundable, as the delivery service has already been completed.

How to request a refund

Contact us via our Instagram account to discuss your refund request with an admin. Please include your order number and, where applicable, photos of the damaged or incorrect item.

Processing timeline

Once a refund is approved, it is processed through our payment provider, Paystack. Paystack's standard processing time applies, which can take up to 9–10 business days to reflect in your account depending on your bank. Halari does not control this timeline directly.

Refund method

Refunds are issued to the original payment method used at checkout. We are unable to offer cash or bank transfer alternatives.
