Refund & Return Policy
At Signature Home Goods, we want you to be happy with your purchase. If there is a problem with your order, our Customer Care Team is available to help resolve it fairly and efficiently.
This Refund & Return Policy explains when products may be returned, exchanged, replaced, or refunded and how to initiate a return.
This policy applies together with your statutory consumer rights under applicable Nigerian law.
1. Our Return Promise
We stand behind the quality of the products we sell.
If you receive an item that is defective, damaged, incorrect, or otherwise qualifies for a remedy under this policy or applicable law, please contact us promptly so we can investigate and provide an appropriate solution.
Depending on the circumstances, the available remedy may include:
-
Replacement
-
Exchange
-
Repair where appropriate
-
Store credit
-
Partial refund
-
Full refund
The appropriate remedy will depend on the nature of the issue and applicable law.
2. Return Period
For eligible change-of-mind returns, customers may request a return within [7 days] of receiving the order, provided the product meets the return conditions below.
For defective, damaged, unsafe, or incorrectly supplied goods, please contact us as soon as possible after discovering the problem.
Nothing in this policy limits statutory rights that apply to defective or unsuitable goods.
Under the FCCPA, consumers have rights concerning goods that are reasonably suitable, of good quality, in good working order, free from defects, and reasonably durable. The Act also provides remedies for certain goods that fail to meet those requirements.
3. Conditions for Change-of-Mind Returns
For a change-of-mind return, the product should generally be:
-
Unused
-
Unwashed
-
Unassembled
-
In its original condition
-
In its original packaging where reasonably possible
-
Free from damage caused by the customer
-
Accompanied by proof of purchase
Products that have been used, altered, damaged, stained, assembled, washed, or otherwise made unsuitable for resale may not qualify for a change-of-mind return.
4. Defective Products
If a product develops a defect or arrives defective, please contact us.
Depending on the circumstances, we may:
-
Repair the product
-
Replace the product
-
Provide an appropriate refund
-
Offer another lawful remedy
We may request photographs, videos, or other information to understand the problem.
Where the defect is covered by applicable consumer-protection law or our warranty obligations, customers will not be unfairly charged for the appropriate remedy.
5. Damaged Products
If your package arrives visibly damaged, please notify our Customer Care Team as soon as possible.
Where practical, take photographs of:
-
The outer packaging
-
Shipping label
-
Damaged packaging
-
Product damage
-
All relevant parts of the product
This information helps us investigate the matter with our delivery partner.
We may arrange a replacement, refund, or other appropriate resolution depending on the circumstances.
6. Incorrect Product
If you receive an item that is different from the product you ordered, please contact us immediately.
Please provide:
-
Order number
-
Photograph of the product received
-
Photograph of the packaging
-
Description of the discrepancy
Where we confirm that an incorrect product was supplied, we will work with you to arrange an appropriate replacement, exchange, or refund.
7. Products That May Not Be Eligible for Change-of-Mind Returns
Certain products may be excluded from change-of-mind returns because of their nature, hygiene considerations, personalization, or other legitimate reasons.
These may include:
-
Personalized or customized products
-
Products made specifically to a customer’s specifications
-
Used hygiene-sensitive products
-
Certain bathroom or personal-use items
-
Products that have been opened or used where hygiene requirements make resale inappropriate
-
Items damaged through customer misuse
-
Items without essential components where the missing components are attributable to the customer
-
Products clearly identified as non-returnable at the time of purchase
However, exclusions do not remove statutory rights relating to defective, unsafe, or incorrectly supplied goods.
8. Personalized Products
Personalized products, including customized mugs and other items made specifically according to customer instructions, are generally not eligible for change-of-mind returns.
However, if a personalized product is defective, damaged, or incorrectly produced due to an error on our part, please contact us so we can investigate and provide an appropriate remedy.

10. Return Shipping Costs
Return shipping arrangements may depend on the reason for the return.
If the Product Is Defective, Damaged, or Incorrect
Where we confirm that the issue is our responsibility, we will determine the appropriate return or delivery arrangement in accordance with applicable law and the circumstances of the case.
Change-of-Mind Returns
Where a return is requested solely because the customer has changed their mind and the product is otherwise correctly supplied and in acceptable condition, the customer may be responsible for applicable return delivery costs.
We will communicate any applicable costs before the return is processed.
11. Inspection of Returned Products
Returned products may be inspected before an exchange, replacement, store credit, or refund is approved.
Inspection may confirm:
-
Product condition
-
Reason for return
-
Product identity
-
Accessories and components
-
Packaging condition
-
Whether the reported defect is present
This process helps us prevent fraudulent returns and ensure that customers receive fair resolutions.
12. Refunds
If a refund is approved, we will communicate the refund amount and method.
Depending on the circumstances, refunds may be made through:
-
Original payment method
-
Bank transfer
-
Store credit
-
Another agreed method
Where a refund is required by law, we will process it in accordance with applicable legal requirements.
13. Refund Processing Time
Once a return has been approved and all required checks have been completed, we will initiate the applicable refund.
The time it takes for the funds to appear in your account may depend on your bank or payment provider.
Third-party payment processing times may be outside our direct control.
14. Partial Refunds
A partial refund may be considered where:
-
Only part of an order is affected
-
A product has a minor issue that the customer agrees to retain
-
An item is missing a non-essential component
-
Another circumstance makes a partial refund appropriate
Any partial refund will be communicated to the customer before processing.
15. Exchanges & Replacements
Where appropriate and subject to availability, we may offer a replacement or exchange instead of a refund.
If the replacement product is unavailable, we may offer another appropriate remedy.
Price differences may apply when exchanging an item for a product of a different value, subject to the circumstances and applicable law.
16. Missing Items
If an item appears to be missing from your order, contact us as soon as possible.
Please provide:
-
Order number
-
List of items received
-
Photograph of the package and contents
We will investigate the order and arrange an appropriate resolution where an item was omitted.
17. Incorrect Quantity
If you receive fewer or more units than ordered, please contact our Customer Care Team.
We may request photographs and packaging information to help us verify the issue.
Where an error is confirmed, we will arrange an appropriate resolution.
18. Failed Delivery or Refused Orders
If an order cannot be delivered because of an incorrect address, unavailable recipient, refusal to accept delivery, or other circumstances attributable to the customer, we may contact you to arrange another delivery attempt.
Additional delivery charges may apply where appropriate.
19. Sale & Promotional Items
Products purchased during promotional campaigns may still qualify for returns where permitted by this policy and applicable law.
Specific promotional terms may apply and will be communicated with the relevant offer.
A discounted product is not automatically excluded from statutory consumer protections.
20. Gift Purchases
If an item was purchased as a gift, the original purchaser may be required to provide proof of purchase before a refund is processed.
Where appropriate, we may offer an exchange or store credit instead of refunding the original payment method.
21. Order Cancellation
If you wish to cancel an order, contact us as soon as possible.
We will try to accommodate cancellation requests before the order has been processed or dispatched.
Once an order has been dispatched, cancellation may no longer be possible and the request may instead be treated under our return procedure.
22. Products Damaged Through Misuse
We cannot normally provide a change-of-mind refund or replacement for damage caused by:
-
Improper use
-
Accidents
-
Neglect
-
Incorrect installation
-
Unauthorized modification
-
Failure to follow product instructions
-
Normal wear and tear where the issue is not a manufacturing defect
This does not affect rights that cannot legally be excluded.
23. Consumer Rights
This Refund & Return Policy does not replace or remove any consumer rights provided by Nigerian law.
The Federal Competition and Consumer Protection Act provides protections relating to the quality, suitability, safety, working condition, and durability of goods and provides remedies in certain circumstances where goods fail to meet those requirements.
Where applicable law provides a greater right or remedy than this policy, the applicable legal right will prevail.
24. Fraudulent or Abusive Returns
We reserve the right to investigate suspected fraudulent or abusive return activity.
Examples may include:
-
Repeated fraudulent damage claims
-
Returning products that were not purchased from us
-
Providing false information
-
Returning substantially different products
-
Deliberately damaging products
-
Repeated abuse of promotional or return systems
We may take appropriate action where permitted by law.
