Can I update my order after creating it?

Yes. Simply communicate the changes with us via our helpline number (+49 176 3013 5775). The following cases can be considered:

  1. In case of additional products, you'll get a request for additional payment for the new items after the delivery.
  2. In case of cancellation of products, you'll get a refund for the cancelled items.
  3. In case there are additions and cancellations of products, the difference is adjusted by the grocera system and a refund will be initiated if the overall cost of cancelled items is more. Or else a payment request will be sent to you for the additional amount.

When will I get my delivery?

Our same-day delivery times are fixed between 6:00 PM-10:00 PM for orders within Munich. We do not deliver on Sundays or public holidays. Orders created after 4:00 PM are delivered during our delivery times on the next delivery day. For customers outside of Munich, we use a third-party courier service DHL to deliver their orders in 2-3 working days.

What happens if I'm not available at the time of delivery?

We always encourage our customers to inform us about their availability or an alternative delivery method before the delivery time starts (6:00 PM). If you're not available and we're uninformed, the driver will first try to reach out via phone. If unreachable and not responding after 10 minutes, the driver will take the order back. Our team will then get in touch to plan a re-delivery.

I don't know my delivery charges?

Delivery charges are calculated based on your postcode. Use our postcode dialog in the top menu to calculate your delivery charges.

Products & Returns

How do you ensure product quality?

We only work with official grocery suppliers in Germany. Additionally, we have systems in place to check and remove all outdated products from our shelves. For further details, you can contact our support.

How do you calculate price for weight-based items?

We charge you based on the weight difference of the item. You get a payment request 24 hours after the order delivery if the weight delivered was higher, or an automatic refund if it was slightly lesser.

What is the return policy for products?

You can return a product within 15 days of delivery if the packaging hasn't been opened or damaged. For customers in Munich, contact customer support to organize a collection day. After collection, points equivalent to the product cost will be added to your account for future use.
