How do Payments Work on Besteez?
Besteez will only charge you fees if you subscribe to a Besteez Subscrption Plan. No products are produced or shipped unless payment for those products has first been received via credit/debit, or from an existing Besteez balance. Users have the option to change settings for when and how often they are charged. You cannot withdraw “sales credits” or “subscription bonus”.

Unless Users subscribe to the Besteez Subscription Plan, there are no fees or charges for the platform itself.
To order samples of Your Products or to fulfill any Customer Orders, You must pay for the Order in advance. The price You pay will be the price of the Product plus shipping and taxes. Orders will not be processed until payment has been received by Besteez.
Besteez cannot pull funds that You may have available in any Sales Channel. In order to process payments on Besteez, You need to either have a Credit or Debit card on file. By default, Besteez will charge funds for Orders from any saved Credit or Debit cards.
If you have an issue with your order, contact Besteez before disputing your claim with your debit/credit card company. If you have filed a dispute with your debit/credit card company, we will not be able to issue you a refund as well, and we cannot make any refunds or replacements until the dispute is resolved or cancelled. If there are Order issues and after an investigation Besteez offers you a refund, this will be provided in the form of a Besteez credit.
Once a user withdraws funds from Besteez it will be paid to the bank account supplied by the user. Besteez will not be held liable for funds paid to the wrong account. Users are responsible for the correct bank details provided. Subscription fees paid by subscribers of the Besteez Subscription Plan will not be able to be withdrawn.
Users are responsible for paying any necessary sales tax on their transactions. Besteez recommends that You consult with an outside tax accountant.
South African Revenue Service (SARS) regulations require Besteez to collect Value Added Tax (“VAT”) on all orders produced and shipped within the South Africa.

How Does Besteez Handle Order Related Issues?
If you have an issue with your order, contact Besteez directly within 30 days of product delivery and provide a detailed description of your issue, accompanied by relevant photo or video evidence that support your case. After investigation, we will determine if you are eligible to receive a replacement at no cost to you. Some issues do not qualify for replacement, they are outlined below.

Besteez does not hold any inventory and only does the printing on products supplied by various suppliers. Other than issues caused by technical error, we are not responsible for the quality of products from the suppliers. Users are expected to order and pay their product to test the quality and see if it is what they want to sell, as well as submitting Content that satisfies the provided print quality requirements. However, if your order has issues, steps for resolution are outlined below.
Besteez’s Merchant Support team handles all conflict resolution. Users agree to contact Besteez Merchant Support for all conflict resolution. If the Produced Order does not meet User or Customer expectations, Users must first contact Besteez Merchant Support within 30 days of product delivery. In order to best resolve the matter, the User should provide all relevant materials for Besteez to investigate the issue, including a description of the Produced Order, the issue, and quantity of Products affected.
Products are unique and produced to order, therefore, they are non-refundable. Once an Order has been sent to production the User can no longer edit the details of the Order or cancel it. If the shipment details are incorrect, or the Customer ordered the wrong size or color, Besteez is not responsible and will not offer replacements or refunds. The User is responsible for relaying the correct information from the User’s Customers. Users may adjust the settings for when an Order is sent to production.
Orders for products with recently updated artwork go through a Besteez Quality Control process that checks for low-resolution imagery or any other design related issues. If an issue is discovered, Besteez will send merchants an email explaining the issue and any possible product quality repercussions. If You choose to proceed with the order, or if Besteez does not receive a response within 7 days of the email notification, the order will be printed and You will not be eligible for any replacements or refunds for this order. Orders that don’t meet other criteria of Besteez’s Terms of Service or Intellectual Property Policy will be cancelled, and charges refunded.
The Production times listed on the Website are estimated average times and are in no way guaranteed. If Your Order seems to be taking an unusually long time to be produced or delivered, please contact Besteez’s Merchant Support team. If the Produced Order is lost during Shipment, Besteez will investigate and may provide replacements when appropriate.
After investigating Your issue, if Besteez’s Merchant Support team determines that your Product is faulty, Your Orders will be submitted for either reprint or replacement. Refunds are only provided if a subsequent reprint or replacement is also found to be faulty by our Merchant Support team. Refunds will be issued in the form of credits.
Besteez does not give refunds for orders that have been shipped without tracking until they are verified to be lost.
If an order is returned to Besteez due to an incorrect address, the User will be contacted by Besteez Merchant Support to arrange a reshipment. The User will be liable for the reshipment costs once an updated address is provided and confirmed. Otherwise, packages will be donated after one week if Besteez Merchant Support is not provided with a valid address for the reshipment. Reshipment costs include the original shipping cost of the product and a service fee of R100. The service fee covers any Charge On Delivery (C.O.D) fees that we get charged by the fulfillment operator and handling fees.
If an order has not been delivered in 30 calendar days, merchants should contact Besteez Merchant Support within 1 week in order to be eligible for a reprint/refund.
