Shipping &  Returns

Nothing too crazy here, we make every effort to process and send out orders on the same day. However, there are instances where it might take us a maximum of 3 business days to ship coffee if we need to roast fresh batches specifically for your order.

Orders totaling $50.00 or more qualify for free shipping. For orders falling within the range of $22.50 to $49.99, there is an Express Shipping fee of $5.00.

We make every effort to ensure the safe delivery of your order.

Please note that any shipping issues resulting from incorrect customer-provided information cannot be absorbed by our business. In such cases, any re-shipping fees required will be the responsibility of the buyer and must be settled before we can ship the package again.

We utilize third-party logistic services such as Canada Post, ICS, UPS, and Purolator for shipping.

Once your package departs from our warehouse, we cannot be held responsible for any delays, losses, or damages that may happen during transit, including packages containing liquids.

We are here to support you by filing a report and working together to resolve any issues you may encounter.

If you have any concerns or inquiries regarding the delivery of your order, please contact us at info@dotacafe.com.

COFFEE RETURNS AND EXCHANGES:

ā€‹

Unopened Whole Bean Coffee: Coffee is a perishable item and, as such, we cannot offer refunds. However, we do facilitate exchanges for unopened whole-bean coffee under certain conditions. Please be aware that we can only process exchanges for coffee that is no older than ten (10) days from the purchase date or fourteen (14) days from the roasting date, provided that the issue is not due to a manufacturing or service error.

 

Opened Whole Bean Coffee: Opened coffee is even more susceptible to spoilage than sealed bags, making refunds generally unavailable. We value your feedback regarding coffee that doesn't meet your expectations, but pinpointing the cause can be complex. Our unwavering commitment to quality and continuous improvement compels us to investigate any issues to the best of our ability. However, it's important to understand that if the problem lies beyond our control, an exchange may not fully address your concerns.

 

Please note that our return and refund policy may undergo changes, and any updates will be communicated through our official Dota Coffee Company channels and website.

 

Should you have any further questions or require assistance with a return or exchange, please do not hesitate to reach out to us at info@dotacafe.com. Our aim is to assist you and ensure your satisfaction with our products and services.
