Return & Refund Policy

Thank you for shopping with our e-bike and electric scooter online store. We strive to ensure that our customers are completely satisfied with their purchases.

If for any reason you are not completely satisfied with your purchase, we offer a 30-day return and refund policy for eligible products.

Products can only be returned after you contact us and receive approval by email. No refund will be issued for products returned without prior approval and an RMA (Return Merchandise Authorization) number.

Please ensure that the e-bike is returned in its original packaging with all accessories, manuals, and other items originally included in the package.

Once we receive the returned item, we will inspect it and process the refund according to the refund timeline described in this policy.

 

Order Processing

Orders are processed after payment has been successfully confirmed.

HiQiS will normally process orders within 1–2 business days after payment confirmation.

Once the order has been shipped, customers will receive shipping information and tracking details when available.

Please note that the order processing time does not include the shipping transit time.

 

Order Cancellation

Before Shipping

Customers may cancel their order within 1–2 business days after placing the order, provided that the order has not yet been shipped.

If the cancellation request is submitted before shipment and within the permitted cancellation period stated on our website, the order can be canceled without a cancellation fee.

There is no cancellation fee for orders canceled before shipment.

To cancel an order, please contact us at:

support@hiqis.com

Please provide your order number and request cancellation as soon as possible.

If the cancellation request is received before shipment, and the order is still within the website's permitted cancellation period, the order can be canceled.

Once the order has been shipped, it can no longer be canceled. The customer must follow the return procedure described in this policy.

After Shipment

Once an order has been shipped, the order cannot be canceled or modified.

If you no longer want the product after shipment, please wait until the product is delivered and then follow our return procedure.

For eligible post-shipment returns, applicable return shipping costs and other fees may be deducted from the refund as described below.

 

Return Policy

1. Return Period

All eligible returns and refunds must be requested within 30 days of receiving the e-bike.

After 30 days, HiQiS will no longer accept returns or refunds, but warranty services may still be available.

To be eligible for a return, the product must:

  • Be unused and in the same condition as received.

Minor scratches or paint chips that may occur during shipping may be considered normal. HiQiS may provide touch-up paint where appropriate to help address minor cosmetic imperfections.

 

3. Return Shipping Costs

Returns Caused by the Customer

If the return is requested for reasons caused by the customer, including but not limited to:

  • Change of mind
  • No longer needed
  • Ordered the wrong product
  • Personal preference
  • Other non-quality-related reasons

the customer is responsible for the return shipping fee.

If the customer chooses their own shipping carrier, the specific return shipping cost will depend on the shipping carrier and service selected by the customer.

For non-quality-related returns, applicable processing fees, restocking fees, return shipping fees, and other applicable expenses may be deducted from the refund.

For eligible non-defective e-bike returns or returns because the product is no longer needed, a €200 shipping fee per bike may be deducted from the refund when applicable.

HiQiS does not cover the cost of replacement packaging.

Returns Caused by HiQiS

If the return is caused by an error or problem attributable to HiQiS, the customer will not be required to bear the return shipping cost.

This includes situations such as:

The wrong product was shipped.

The product received is damaged due to shipping and the damage affects normal use.

The product has a confirmed quality defect.

Accessories are missing due to an error in fulfillment.

For these situations, HiQiS will arrange an appropriate solution, which may include free replacement, replacement parts, repair, or a full refund, depending on the circumstances.

 

4. Product Defects

For product defects, HiQiS will do its best to provide technical support to resolve simple issues.

HiQiS may provide the replacement parts necessary to resolve confirmed product defects and cover applicable repair costs in accordance with our warranty and service policies.

Before arranging a return or repair, customers may be required to provide photos and/or videos clearly showing the problem.

This helps our support team identify the issue and determine the appropriate solution.

 

5. Shipping Damage

If the product is damaged during shipping and the damage affects normal functionality, customers may refuse the package where appropriate or contact our customer service team immediately.

For serious shipping damage, HiQiS will assist with the replacement and return process.

Serious damage means that the main structure of the product is deformed or the damage otherwise affects the normal function of the product.

If the shipping damage is confirmed to be attributable to the shipment or fulfillment process, the customer will not be required to bear the return shipping cost.

 

6. Incorrect Items

If you receive an incorrect product, HiQiS will provide:

  • A free replacement; or
  • A full refund.

Customers are not required to bear the return shipping cost when the incorrect item was caused by HiQiS.

For returned e-bikes or batteries using a return label provided by HiQiS:

Our warehouse will inspect the returned e-bike or battery within five (5) business days after receiving it.

After we confirm that the returned item is consistent with the customer's return description and meets the applicable return conditions, the refund will be processed within one (1)–two (2) business days.

If you return the item using your own shipping carrier, you must provide:
