Case Mate allows you to return most items within 30 days of purchase. Returns are processed by mail, and refunds are issued within 14 days of the company receiving your return.

How returns work

To return an item, you must first opt in for return coverage at checkout or arrange your own return shipping. Then contact the Case Mate Returns Center to initiate your return. Once approved, you will receive a pre-paid return label in most cases to ship the item back by mail.

Exclusions and restrictions

Case Mate does not accept returns on cloth masks, mask filters, or Cleanscreenz Phone Cleaning Wipes due to their personal use nature. If you believe an item is defective, contact customer service within 30 days of purchase. View the warranty policy for replacement eligibility on defective products. International orders have different terms: orders shipped outside the EU have a 30-day return window with return shipping at your expense, while EU orders have a 14-day withdrawal period under EU Consumer Rights Directive with a prepaid label provided, though the return cost is deducted from your refund.

Refunds

Refunds are processed within 14 days of Case Mate receiving your returned item. If you are an EU customer, the cost of return shipping will be deducted from your refund amount.
