KOOLIO | koolio.co.za

Last updated: 10 October 2026

At KOOLIO, we want you to shop with confidence. We are committed to providing quality products and fair customer service.

This Refund & Return Policy explains how returns, refunds, exchanges, cancellations and faulty products are handled when you purchase from www.koolio.co.za.

KOOLIO is an online retailer based in South Africa. Some of our orders are fulfilled through our third-party supplier, TeemDrop. Regardless of who fulfils your order, KOOLIO remains your point of contact for customer service, returns and refunds.

Nothing in this policy limits or excludes your rights under applicable South African consumer protection legislation, including the Consumer Protection Act (CPA) and Electronic Communications and Transactions Act (ECTA).

1. Change-of-Mind Returns

For eligible online purchases, customers may cancel their purchase within 7 calendar days after receiving the goods, as provided for under Section 44 of the Electronic Communications and Transactions Act, subject to the exceptions permitted by law.

If you wish to return an eligible product because you have changed your mind:

  • Contact us within 7 calendar days of receiving your order.

  • Provide your order number and the reason for your return.

  • Follow the return instructions provided by our customer support team.

  • Return the product with its original accessories and packaging where reasonably possible.

Customers exercising the statutory cooling-off right may be responsible for the direct cost of returning the goods, as permitted by law.

We recommend handling and packaging the product carefully to prevent damage during return shipping.

2. Faulty, Damaged or Defective Products

If your KOOLIO product arrives damaged, defective, or does not function as intended, please contact our support team as soon as possible.

To help us investigate the issue, we may request:

  • Your order number.

  • A description of the problem.

  • Clear photographs or a short video showing the fault or damage.

  • Photographs of the packaging, if relevant.

Under Section 56 of the Consumer Protection Act, qualifying defective or unsafe goods may be returned within 6 months of delivery, and the consumer may choose a repair, replacement or refund, subject to the applicable legal requirements.

Where a return is required under these statutory rights, it will be handled at KOOLIO's risk and expense as required by law.

We may assess the reported issue to establish whether the product is defective and determine the appropriate resolution in accordance with applicable legislation.

3. Incorrect Products Received

If you receive a product that is different from what you ordered, please contact us promptly.

Provide your order number and photographs of the item received.

Where KOOLIO has supplied the incorrect product, we will arrange an appropriate correction, replacement or refund in accordance with your legal rights, without charging you for our mistake.
