The 30-day Money-back Guarantee

 

At Ampere, we want you to LOVE our products. If for some reason you’re not in love with your purchase (a tell-tale sign is that you don’t get those butterflies in your stomach once you’ve unpacked it), your undamaged Ampere products purchased from Ampere.shop may be returned for a full refund or exchange within 30 days of the date the item was delivered to your shipping address.

 

You can return it for any reason, and we mean any reason:

 

• The color of your Unravel doesn’t match your eyes...
• You realized your favorite meat thermometer that you wanted to wirelessly charge isn’t compatible with Qi-charging… 
• You bought it as a birthday present for a boyfriend/girlfriend, but they just dumped you… 

All you need to remember when you send your item are following:

 

• Returns must include all accessories
• Items must include original packaging
• For non-quality related warranty claims, buyer is responsible for return shipping cost(s)
• For quality-related warranty claims, Ampere will refund or reimburse the return shipping cost(s)
• Returns may be rejected if items do not meet the above requirements

To make your 30-day return, email our team at hello@amperetech.co.

 

Once the eagle (your product) lands in the Ampere nest (our warehouse), the item will be inspected and we’ll begin the refund process (may take up to 14 days)

 

Please note that if you decide to cancel your order while the package is in transit, you'll need to receive it first and then send it back to our return address. Refusing delivery of a package in transit will result in it being sent back to the overseas warehouse and destroyed if not delivered. Similarly, overseas packages that remain undeliverable after several attempts will also be destroyed by the local carrier. We cannot offer refunds for packages that are destroyed under these circumstances.

 

To our beloved Kickstarter and Indiegogo backers, please note that your items purchased through these crowdfunding platforms are not included in the 30-day no-questions-asked returns policy. However, if you are experiencing a defect, read on below. 

 

Please remember that refund requests for the 30-day money back guarantee expire 30 days after the item's shipping date (according to the shipping carriers tracking information). It is not possible to process a request for a refund for non-quality issues for items that have expired within this 30-day window. For purchases not made directly through Ampere’s online store, please contact retailers for refunds. For quality-related issues, please see below.

The 1-year Manufacturer’s Warranty 

 

Here at Ampere, we offer a 1-year manufacturer’s warranty for manufacturing defects for the following products purchased on our website, Amazon, Kickstarter or Indiegogo:

 

• Unravel (AW+ and 3+1)
• Power Cube 
• Side Pocket Fanny Pack 
• Full Circle Power Bank 
• HyperCube Solo  

If your gear has a defect, we’ll send you a replacement or organise a repair. To be eligible for the 1-year warranty, you must register your Ampere product within 30-days of the shipping date. Registration can be completed here. 

 

We’ll issue you a prepaid shipping label if your product is deemed to have a defect.  

 

We’re not going to lie, the next few paragraphs are our legal jargon (that we need to include). But here at Ampere, we’re all about doing the right thing and use common sense when talking through these problems. A defect is a defect and we will do our best to accommodate any issues you have with your product. Issues with our products are rare, but we will always do the right thing by you to ensure that you get the gadget that was promised. 

 

Here’s the legal jargon:

 

If a hardware defect is found and a valid claim is received within the Limited Warranty Period, Ampere will either (1) repair the product at no charge, using new or refurbished replacement parts or, (2) replace the product with a new or refurbished product, maximum of one replacement. Shipping and handling charges may apply.

 

The Limited Warranty does not apply to any (a) Damage due to acts of nature or God, for example, lightning strikes, tornadoes and the like; (b) Negligence; (c) Commercial use; (d) Modifications to any part of the Product; (e) Damage caused by use with non-compatible products; (f) Damage caused by accident, abuse, misuse, flood, fire, earthquake or other external causes; (g) Damage caused by operating the Product outside the permitted or intended uses or with improper voltage or power supply; or (h) Damage caused by service

 

When returning items with a prepaid shipping label provided by Ampere, Ampere takes responsibility for any damage or loss incurred in transit. When returning items for non-quality issues, buyer assumes responsibility for any damage or loss incurred in transit. Ampere does not provide refunds for items damaged in transit for non-quality related warranty claims.

Okay, legal jargon out of the way, let’s talk about how to action your return and warranty.  

Actioning a Warranty: 

 

Oops! Did something go wrong with your Unravel? Please email hello@amperetech.co and upload 2-3 clear photos of the fault and a video showing the issue. We'll get back to you shortly with the replacement process.

 

During the replacement process, we will send you a prepaid shipping label to send back the defective item. Once we have received the item and it has been inspected, we’ll send the replacement and email you when the replacement has been dispatched. We always do our best to resolve tickets related to defective items as quickly as possible.

• Ampere will document what happens when buyers troubleshoot the product 
• The customer must return the item for quality inspection
