What is Card Bot's return policy?

You may request a return within 30 days of receiving your order.

To be eligible for a return, the product must be unused, in its original packaging and in the same condition in which it was received.

Opened trading card products cannot be returned or refunded.

We also do not accept change-of-mind returns for sale items, mystery products or gift cards.

How do I request a return?

Contact us at support@cardbot.com.au and include your order number, the item you would like to return and the reason for the return.

Returns must be approved by our team before being sent back. Products returned without prior approval may not be accepted.

Are there fees for change-of-mind returns?

For approved change-of-mind returns:

- Original shipping costs are non-refundable.

- A 10% restocking fee applies.

Return shipping costs may also be the responsibility of the customer.

What should I do if my order arrives damaged or incorrect?

Please contact support@cardbot.com.au as soon as possible.

Include your order number, a description of the issue and you MUST include clear photos of the product and packaging where applicable.

Our team will review the issue and help determine the appropriate resolution.

When will I receive my refund?

Once your return has been received and inspected, we'll let you know whether your refund has been approved.

Approved refunds are returned to your original payment method.

Please allow approximately 2–4 business days after your refund has been processed for it to appear, depending on your payment provider.

What happens if I return part of a bundle?

If you return an item purchased as part of a discounted bundle, the remaining products may no longer qualify for the original bundle price.

Any refund may therefore be adjusted to reflect the price of the products you keep.

Where is my order?

Once your order has been dispatched, you’ll receive a shipping confirmation email containing your tracking number.

You can track your delivery directly through Australia Post using the link below.

For delivery issues, we recommend contacting Australia Post directly first. You can also view their guidance for delayed or missing parcels here.

What is a preorder?

A preorder is an item purchased before it arrives in stock, allowing you to secure it ahead of release.

Preorders must be paid in full and cannot be cancelled. Release dates are provided by distributors and may change, so please check the product listing for the latest date.

What if my order includes a preorder item?

If your order contains both in-stock and preorder items, the entire order will ship once all items are available.

If you'd like the in-stock items sent separately, please contact us. Additional shipping charges will apply.

Does Card Bot sell genuine products?

Yes! Card Bot sells genuine products sourced from Australian distributors and trusted international suppliers.

Factory-sealed products are supplied to us sealed unless otherwise clearly stated on the product listing.

Does Card Bot sell resealed or searched packs?

No. Card Bot does not reseal, search, open or tamper with products sold as factory sealed. Our sealed products are sourced from established distributors and trusted suppliers and are kept sealed until they reach you.

Why might my sealed product look different or damaged?

Factory packaging isn’t always perfect. Loose or wrinkled shrink wrap, uneven pack crimps, small tears in plastic and other minor packaging variations can happen during manufacturing or transit and do not necessarily mean a product has been tampered with.

How are products packaged?

We carefully pack every order to help protect your products during transit.

Depending on your order, we may use bubble wrap, air pillows, sturdy mailer boxes, protective padding and secure tape to help your items arrive safely.

When are products restocked? 

We regularly restock popular products, subject to distributor availability and demand.

If an item is sold out, select Notify Me on the product page to receive an email when it becomes available again.

What is Card Bot’s policy on resealed or tampered products?

Our policy covering sealed products, resealed product claims, and suspected tampering is available on our Resealed Claims & Sealed Product Policy page.

Please refer to this page for our current policy and claims process.

What payment methods do you accept?

We accept major credit and debit cards, including Visa, Mastercard and American Express, as well as supported digital wallets such as Apple Pay and Google Pay.

Additional payment options may also be available at checkout, including Afterpay, Zip and PayPal Pay in 4.

Available payment methods can vary depending on your order and eligibility.

How secure are payments on Card Bot?

Payments on Card Bot are processed securely through Shopify’s payment infrastructure and supported payment providers.

Card Bot does not directly store your full credit or debit card details.

How do I use a discount code?

Your eligible discount will be shown before you complete payment.

Some discount codes may not be combined with other promotions or discounts.
