Refund & Cancellation Policy

When you can cancel, when you can return, and how and where your money comes back.

Last updated 26 August 2026

Cancelling an order

  • You can cancel an order yourself from the order page while it is still being prepared.
  • Once a delivery partner has picked the order up, self-cancellation closes. Email us with the order number and our team will handle it.
  • If we cancel an order — no stock, an address we cannot serve, or a failed verification — anything you have paid is refunded in full.

Returns

  • You can raise a return from the order for 7 days after delivery.
  • Returns need a live photo of the item taken at the time you raise the request. This is what lets us approve most refunds without an inspection visit.
  • Perishables — fresh produce, dairy, bakery and other short-life items — should be reported on the day of delivery, while the condition can still be established.
  • Items must be in their original packaging where the packaging is part of the product.

Replacement instead of a refund

  • For a damaged or wrong item you can ask for a replacement rather than money back. If the replacement is unavailable, we refund instead.

How refunds are paid

  • When you raise the return you choose where the money goes: your MonkDeal wallet, a UPI ID, your bank account, or back to the original payment method.
  • Wallet refunds are credited as soon as the return passes our quality check.
  • UPI and bank refunds are released at the same point, but the time they take to appear depends on your bank.
  • Delivery charges are refunded when the fault is ours — a wrong, damaged or undelivered order.

Marketplace seller orders

  • Returns for a seller's product follow this same policy and are raised the same way. MonkDeal coordinates the pickup and the refund; the seller is responsible for the goods.

If something is not covered here

  • Email monkdeal0@gmail.com with your order number. We would rather sort out an edge case than have you stuck with something you cannot use.
