Still waiting on a Culture Kings refund?
Can you get a refund from Culture Kings? Check eligibility first
Culture Kings offers refunds for most change-of-mind purchases within 30 days of purchase or delivery, but only if strict return conditions are met. To qualify:
- Items must be unworn, unwashed, with original tags and packaging intact.
- Footwear must include the original undamaged shoebox (not used as shipping box).
- Non-returnable items include: face masks, underwear, swimwear, earrings, and “Final Sale” items unless faulty.
- Proof of purchase is required - either your order confirmation email or in-store receipt.
- Items must arrive at Culture Kings by Day 30, not just be posted by then.
Returns that don’t meet these standards (such as worn items, missing boxes, or outside the window) may be rejected. If your item is faulty, different rules apply, and you're covered under Australian Consumer Law for a refund, repair, or replacement depending on severity.
How to get a refund from Culture Kings
The process is handled through the Culture Kings Returns Portal:
