Refund policy
At InkRide™, we are committed to providing high-quality wearable tattoo-style products and a transparent shopping experience.
This Refund, Return & Limited Warranty Policy explains how returns, refunds, exchanges, defective product claims, shipping issues, cancellations, and our 90-Day Limited Return Guarantee are handled.
By placing an order on our website, the customer agrees to the terms outlined below.
1. Scope of This Policy
This policy applies to all purchases made through the official InkRide™ website.
InkRide™ sells internationally. This policy applies worldwide, except where local consumer protection laws provide mandatory rights that cannot be excluded or limited.
Nothing in this policy limits any legal rights the customer may have under the laws of their country, state, province, or region.
2. 90-Day Limited Return Guarantee
InkRide™ offers a 90-Day Limited Return Guarantee from the date the order is marked as delivered by the shipping carrier.
This guarantee allows customers to request a return within 90 calendar days after delivery, provided that the product meets all return conditions listed in this policy.
To qualify for a return under the 90-Day Limited Return Guarantee, the product must be:
-
Unused.
-
Unworn.
-
Unwashed.
-
Undamaged.
-
In completely new condition.
-
Free from stains, odors, stretching, wear, tearing, marks, or signs of handling.
-
Returned in its original packaging.
-
Returned with all accessories, tags, inserts, components, and protective materials.
-
Suitable for resale.
Because InkRide™ products are wearable items designed to come into contact with the skin, returns may be rejected if the product has been opened, worn, stretched, washed, damaged, altered, or handled in a way that affects hygiene, quality, or resale condition.
The 90-Day Limited Return Guarantee is not a free trial period and does not allow customers to use the product and return it afterwards.
3. Products Not Eligible for Return
Returns will not be accepted if:
-
The product has been used or worn.
-
The product has been washed.
-
The product has been stretched, altered, cut, damaged, or manipulated.

The product has stains, odors, marks, sweat, hair, dust, dirt, makeup, lotion, perfume, deodorant, or any sign of use.
-
The product is missing packaging, accessories, tags, inserts, or components.
-
The product is not suitable for resale.
-
The return was sent without prior approval from InkRide™.
-
The return request contains false, incomplete, or misleading information.
InkRide™ reserves the right to refuse any return that does not meet these conditions.
4. Customer Responsibility for Product Selection
The customer is responsible for selecting the correct product, size, color, design, and variant before placing an order.
Returns or exchanges due to customer selection errors may be approved only if the product is unused, unworn, unwashed, undamaged, complete, and returned in its original packaging.
Customer selection errors include, but are not limited to:

-
Wrong design selected by the customer.

In these cases, the customer is responsible for all return shipping costs and any additional shipping costs related to an exchange or replacement.
Original shipping costs are non-refundable unless required by law.
5. European Union Right of Withdrawal
For customers located in the European Union, the customer may have the legal right to withdraw from an online purchase within 14 calendar days from the date the order is received, without giving a reason.
To exercise this right, the customer must contact InkRide™ through the official contact form on our website.
The product must be returned unused, unworn, unwashed, undamaged, complete, and in a condition suitable for resale.
For hygiene reasons, products that have been worn, washed, stretched, damaged, stained, altered, or handled beyond what is necessary to inspect the item may be rejected or may be subject to a reduction in refund value where permitted by law.
Return shipping costs for withdrawal, change-of-mind returns, or customer selection errors are the responsibility of the customer unless applicable law states otherwise.

Refund processing time is usually 5 to 10 business days after approval.
The final processing time may vary depending on the customer’s bank, card provider, or payment processor.
InkRide™ may deduct original shipping fees, return shipping fees, customs duties, import taxes, handling fees, or other non-refundable costs from the refund amount where permitted by law.

For hygiene and safety reasons, we do not accept returns of products that have been worn, washed, stretched, stained, damaged, altered, or used in any way.

False claims, altered evidence, repeated suspicious requests, or chargeback abuse may result in refusal of service.
