Last updated: 6 November 2026
RETURNS AND REFUNDS POLICY
MABONG BOUTIQUE
At Mabong Boutique, every order is handled with care and attention to detail. We want our customers to be happy with their purchases.
Please read our Returns and Refunds Policy before placing an order.
1. Personalised and Customised Products
Personalised products are made according to the customer's approved specifications.
Customers must carefully check names, spelling, photographs, colours, wording and design details before approving production.
Change-of-mind returns on personalised products may not be accepted where permitted by applicable law.
Once production has started, cancellations and design changes may not be possible.
This does not affect customers' legal rights regarding defective or incorrectly supplied products.
2. Damaged, Defective or Incorrect Products
If you receive a product that is:
Damaged.
Defective or faulty.
Incorrectly personalised due to an error made by Mabong Boutique.
Different from what you ordered.
Please contact us as soon as reasonably possible and provide photographs or other relevant information to help us assess the issue.
Qualifying complaints will be handled in accordance with the Consumer Protection Act of South Africa.
Depending on the circumstances and applicable law, customers may be entitled to a repair, replacement or refund.
3. Reporting a Problem
To help us resolve your concern:
Contact Mabong Boutique as soon as you notice a problem.
Provide your order details.
Include clear photographs where applicable.
Explain the issue so that we can assist you.
We encourage customers to report delivery damage promptly. However, reporting periods do not remove any statutory consumer rights.
4. Refunds
Approved refunds will be processed using an appropriate payment method.
Refund processing times may depend on the payment provider or financial institution.
Where a refund is legally required, it will be handled in accordance with applicable consumer protection laws.
Delivery charges will be handled in accordance with the circumstances and applicable law.
5. Change of Mind
For non-personalised products, change-of-mind returns will be considered subject to the applicable law and the product's condition.
Personalised products cannot be returned simply because a customer changes their mind, except where consumer law provides otherwise.
6. Order Cancellations
Customers should contact Mabong Boutique immediately if they wish to cancel an order.
Cancellation requests will be considered based on the order's production status and applicable consumer protection laws.
Once production has started, cancellation may no longer be possible for personalised products, subject to customers' legal rights.
