Still waiting on a Under Armour refund?
Can you get a refund from Under Armour? Check eligibility first
Under Armour Australia's refund policy applies to purchases made directly through underarmour.com.au, the Under Armour app, or an Under Armour Brand House or Factory House store. If you bought through a third-party retailer, return to that retailer, Under Armour won't accept those returns.
Standard eligibility conditions:
- 30-day window: Items must be returned within 30 days of purchase
- Unworn and tagged: Items must be unworn, with original tags still attached
- Original packaging: Items must be returned in their original packaging
- Proof of purchase: Order confirmation or invoice is required
Items not eligible for standard change-of-mind returns:
- Undergarments (boxers, thongs) — excluded for hygiene and safety reasons
- Headwear (beanies, caps, hats) — only accepted if unused and in original condition, or faulty
- Electronics (e.g. headphones) — only accepted if unused and in original condition, or faulty
- UA Sportsmasks — accepted for faulty items only
- Third-party retailer purchases — must be returned to the original retailer
- Worn, washed, or de-tagged items — will not be accepted
Your rights under Australian Consumer Law (ACL):
Under Armour's 30-day window is a store policy, and does not impact your legal rights. Under the ACL, if a product is faulty, doesn't match its description, or isn't fit for purpose, you're entitled to a repair, replacement, or full refund (including return shipping costs) regardless of when you bought it. These rights sit alongside the standard policy and cannot be waived.
For full detail, see the ACCC — Repair, Replace, Refund, Cancel guide (https://www.accc.gov.au/consumers/problem-with-a-product-or-service-you-bought/repair-replace-refund-cancel).

In-Store Returns
- Bring your item and original order invoice to any Under Armour Brand House or Factory House store in Australia
- In-store returns are available for online orders paid by credit card only
- Orders paid via PayPal or Klarna cannot be processed in-store, these must be returned by post

Under Armour’s refund timeframe - how long it takes
Under Armour Australia's published refund timeline runs in two stages after your parcel is delivered to their returns facility:
- Warehouse processing: Up to 5 business days from receipt at the returns facility
- Bank processing: Up to 14 additional days after the refund is issued, depending on your bank or card provider
- Total expected range: Approximately 7–19 business days from warehouse delivery (not from the date you posted the parcel).
Additional time to factor in:
- Australia Post transit: Add 2–5 business days for metropolitan delivery; longer for regional and rural areas
- Peak periods: Post-Christmas and Black Friday returns can extend processing well beyond the stated window
What to watch for:
- The refund may appear in your statement against the original purchase date, not the refund date. Check your transaction history before assuming it hasn't arrived
- If no confirmation email has arrived within 10 business days of warehouse receipt, follow up proactively
- Under Armour recommends contacting customer service if no refund appears within 21 days of lodging your return
Common causes of delays:
- Return parcel not scanned correctly at Australia Post or during warehouse intake
- Missing invoice or return authorisation form inside the package
- Items assessed as not meeting return conditions upon inspection
- High-volume return periods (post-Christmas, Black Friday)
Under Armour’s refund methods - how you'll get your money back
- Original payment method: All online refunds are returned to the same payment method used at purchase - credit card, debit card, PayPal, or Afterpay
- No cash refunds for online orders processed by post
- Klarna and PayPal: Must be returned by mail only. These payment methods cannot be processed in-store, and refunds go back to the original account
- Shipping charges: Not refunded. The refund covers the product purchase price only
- Free return postage: Under Armour provides a pre-paid Australia Post label for eligible online returns, so there is no out-of-pocket return shipping cost for standard items
- Faulty goods: Under ACL, Under Armour should cover return postage for genuinely faulty products
- No mail exchanges: The online return process is refund-only. If you want a different size or colour, place a new order after the refund is processed
Common refund issues with Under Armour
- Refund not received despite return delivery confirmation: Customers report tracking confirming parcel delivery to the returns warehouse, but no refund or confirmation email follows. Under Armour has in some cases cited missing carrier scans as grounds to withhold refunds. Always keep your Australia Post lodgement receipt and tracking number as independent evidence.
- Processing times significantly longer than stated: The published 5-business-day warehouse processing window is frequently not met, with waits of 2–4 weeks reported during peak periods. Follow up at the 10 business day mark if you haven't received a confirmation email.
- Return rejected due to condition disputes: Some returns are rejected on the grounds that items appear used or have had tags removed, even when customers dispute this. Photograph the item and its tags before packing your return, and retain all original packaging.
- Cancelled order, refund stalled: Customers whose orders are cancelled by Under Armour (e.g. due to stock unavailability) report extended delays receiving refunds - in some cases over 30 days. If Under Armour cancels your order, request a specific refund timeline in writing via the Help Centre.
- In-store ineligibility for certain payment methods: Customers arrive at a store with a Klarna or PayPal return only to be turned away. Check your original payment method before visiting a store. Klarna and PayPal orders must be returned by post.
Poor customer service responsiveness during disputes: Multiple customers describe difficulty getting consistent responses from Under Armour, including scripted replies and lengthy waits. Document all contact with dates and reference numbers, and escalate to your card provider if a confirmed refund doesn't arrive within a reasonable timeframe.

Customer experiences with Under Armour refund cases
Refund Withheld Despite Confirmed Delivery
A customer returned an item using the DHL label provided by Under Armour and received tracking confirmation that the parcel had been delivered. Under Armour declined to process the refund, citing that the carrier had not scanned the item into their system. The customer ultimately had to dispute the charge through their bank.
Extended Wait After Warehouse Receipt
A customer returned their order on 3 January 2025 and tracking confirmed delivery to the returns facility on 6 January. Seven days later (past Under Armour's stated 5-business-day window) no confirmation email had arrived and no refund had appeared. The customer had to follow up multiple times before the refund was finally issued.
Cancelled Order, Refund Stalled for Over 30 Days
A customer's order totalling $178.61 was cancelled by Under Armour and a refund was approved. More than 30 days passed without the funds appearing, despite the customer speaking to over six separate customer service representatives. The case was eventually escalated to a bank dispute.

Under Armour Refund FAQs
What can I do if Under Armour hasn't processed my refund after the return was delivered?
If Under Armour hasn't issued your refund within 10 business days of the warehouse receiving your return, follow up directly via the Help Centre with your tracking number and lodgement receipt as evidence. If Under Armour cites a missing carrier scan or continues to delay beyond 21 days, escalate to your bank or card provider to initiate a chargeback. Keep every piece of documentation — tracking confirmation, lodgement receipt, and all contact records with dates and reference numbers — before you escalate.
Can I return an Under Armour online order in-store if I paid with Klarna or PayPal?
No. Under Armour Australia only accepts in-store returns for online orders paid by credit card. If your order was paid via Klarna or PayPal, it must be returned by post using the free pre-paid Australia Post label. Check your original payment method before heading to a store to avoid being turned away. Once your postal return is processed, the refund goes back to your original Klarna or PayPal account.
Does Australian Consumer Law give me refund rights beyond Under Armour's 30-day return policy?
Yes, under Australian Consumer Law, you have refund rights that exist independently of Under Armour's 30-day store policy. If your item is faulty, not fit for purpose, or doesn't match its description, you're entitled to a repair, replacement, or full refund regardless of when you bought it, and Under Armour must cover return postage costs for faulty goods. These ACL rights cannot be waived by any store policy and apply to all purchases made through Under Armour Australia.
How long does an Under Armour Australia refund actually take, and why does it sometimes take longer?
Under Armour's published refund timeline is up to 5 business days for warehouse processing plus up to 14 days for bank processing, but real-world reports show waits of 2 to 4 weeks are common, particularly during post-Christmas and Black Friday periods. Delays are most often caused by missing invoices inside the return parcel, items failing the condition check, or parcels not being scanned correctly at Australia Post or the returns facility. Factor in Australia Post transit time on top of the warehouse processing window before counting down from your lodgement date.
