Changing that Mug

Returns & Exchanges

Last updated: April 2025  ·  Questions? Contact us.

We stand behind every mug we make.

Because every Mugglys order is made fresh just for you, we have a straightforward policy: if something is wrong with your mug — whether it arrived damaged, has a defect, or wasn't what you expected — we will make it right. No runaround. No hoops to jump through.

Your satisfaction is the whole point.

What We Cover

What We Cover

We will always replace or refund your order if the issue is on our end. Here is a full breakdown of what qualifies.

Damaged Items

If your mug arrives cracked, chipped, broken, or physically damaged in any way, we will send you a brand new replacement at no charge — or issue a full refund if you prefer. Whatever the cause, a damaged mug is our problem to fix.

What you need to do: Email us a photo of the damage and your order number within 30 days of delivery. No return required.

Printing Defects

Every mug goes through a quality check before it ships, but if a printing error slips through — faded ink, misaligned design, smearing, incorrect colors, or missing text — we will replace it immediately or issue a full refund.

What you need to do: Send us a clear photo showing the defect along with your order number. We will get a corrected replacement into production right away.

Wrong Item Received

If you receive a mug that does not match what you ordered — wrong design, wrong color, wrong size — we take full responsibility. We will send the correct item or issue a full refund.

What you need to do: Email us a photo of what you received along with your order number. No need to return the wrong item.

Lost in Transit

If your tracking shows delivery but the package never arrived, or your tracking has stalled and the order appears lost, contact us. We will investigate with the carrier and arrange a replacement or refund.

  • First check around your property, with neighbors, or your building's mailroom.
  • If still missing after 3 business days from the marked delivery date, contact us.
  • For tracking with no movement for 7+ business days, contact us and we will open a carrier investigation.
Exclusions

What We Don't Cover

Because every order is custom-made specifically for you at the time of purchase, we are unable to accept returns or exchanges for the following reasons:

We cover

  • Damaged on arrival
  • Printing or production defects
  • Wrong item shipped
  • Lost in transit
  • Significant color variation from listing

We don't cover

  • Change of mind
  • Wrong size selected at checkout
  • Incorrect address entered
  • Buyer's remorse
  • Gifted to the wrong person
  • Minor color variation (screen vs print)
Please note: Screens display colors differently than printed products. Minor variations between what you see on screen and the finished mug are normal and are not considered defects. If you have a color concern before ordering, contact us and we will do our best to help.
Process

How to Request a Return or Replacement

The process is simple and takes less than 5 minutes.

1
Email us at support@mugglys.com

Use the subject line: “Return Request — Order #[your order number]”. This helps us locate your order immediately.

2
Include your order number

Your order number is in your original order confirmation email.

3
Attach a photo of the issue

A clear photo of the damaged, defective, or incorrect item is required for all return and replacement requests.

4
Tell us your preferred resolution

Let us know whether you would prefer a replacement mug or a full refund.

5
We'll respond within 1–2 business days

Approved replacements enter production within 24 hours. Refunds are processed within 5–10 business days depending on your payment method.

You do not need to return your mug to receive a replacement or refund. We never ask customers to ship damaged or defective items back to us.
Refunds

Refunds

When a refund is approved, here is what to expect:

Payment MethodRefund TimelineWhere It Appears
Credit / Debit Card5–10 business daysOriginal card used at checkout
PayPal3–5 business daysPayPal account balance
Shop Pay5–10 business daysOriginal payment method
Apple Pay / Google Pay5–10 business daysOriginal card on file
Refund timelines are set by your bank or payment provider and are outside our control. If your refund has not appeared after 10 business days, please check with your bank before contacting us.

Original Shipping Costs

If your order qualifies for a refund due to damage, defect, or our error, your original shipping cost will also be refunded in full.

Exchanges

Exchanges

Because every Mugglys order is made to order, we do not offer direct exchanges. However, if your order qualifies under this policy, you have two options:

  • Replacement: We will produce and ship you an identical replacement mug at no charge.
  • Refund: We will issue a full refund so you can place a new order for the design or size you actually wanted.
If you ordered the wrong size or color by mistake, we unfortunately cannot exchange it as the item was made specifically to your order. We recommend double-checking your selection at checkout.
Cancellations

Order Cancellations

Because production begins quickly after an order is placed, the window to cancel is short.

Cancellation window
  • Orders can only be cancelled before production begins — typically within 2–4 hours of placing your order.
  • Contact us immediately at support@mugglys.com with your order number.
  • If production has already started, cancellation is no longer possible.
  • Once an order has shipped, it cannot be cancelled.
FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

How long do I have to report an issue?

Please contact us within 30 days of delivery for damaged, defective, or incorrect items. For lost packages, contact us within 60 days of your order date.

Do I need to return my mug?

No. Simply send us a photo of the issue and your order number. We never require customers to return damaged or defective mugs.

What if I ordered the wrong size?

Unfortunately, size selection errors are not covered under our returns policy as the mug was made to your specifications. Our mugs come in 11oz and 15oz — the 15oz is the larger option and popular with coffee drinkers.

What if I am unhappy with the design quality?

If your mug has a genuine printing defect — faded ink, misalignment, smearing — that is covered and we will replace it. If the mug was printed correctly but you simply do not love the design, that falls outside our policy as the product was made as ordered.

Can I get a refund if I just changed my mind?

Because every mug is custom-produced specifically for your order, we are unable to offer refunds for change of mind. If you have a concern about a design before ordering, please reach out — we are happy to help you make the right choice.

How do I know if my refund has been processed?

You will receive an email confirmation once your refund has been approved and processed. After that, allow 5–10 business days depending on your bank. If you have not received confirmation after 3 business days, please follow up at support@mugglys.com.

Can I cancel after my order has shipped?

No — once an order has shipped it cannot be cancelled or recalled. If there is an issue with the order after it arrives, contact us and we will assess whether it qualifies for a replacement or refund.
