Shopping & Account

Do I need to be registered to make a purchase?

No. You can place an order without creating a customer account, but by doing so as a guest, you will lose access to some exclusive benefits for registered users, such as earning cashback.

Do you have stock of all the items you offer?

Our website stock is always kept up to date, and we only allow the sale of items that are in stock. However, in exceptional cases, the last unit of a particular item may be sold simultaneously in our physical store and online, which can lead to stock running out and the online order being unable to be dispatched.

How do I know my order was successfully placed?

After placing your order, we will send you a confirmation email with all the details. If you need to change any information, we can make corrections provided the request is made before the order is dispatched. Please note, this confirmation email does not mean the order has been paid. If payment is not made, the order may be automatically cancelled depending on the payment method selected.

From what amount can I benefit from free shipping?

You can enjoy free shipping to Mainland Portugal on any order valued at €69.99 or more, using our standard shipping option, which includes delivery to your address or a pickup point. Additionally, all orders collected from our physical store have no associated cost, regardless of the order value.

Payments

What payment methods are accepted in your online store?

Currently, we offer the following payment methods: MB Way, Multibanco, PayShop, Apple Pay, Google Pay, Credit / Debit Card, iDEAL, Bancontact, Bank Deposit and Brincatoys Gift Card.

Some of these payment methods may only be available in countries where they are supported at the time the customer is completing their order.

I live outside Portugal but want to place an order for delivery in Portugal (or another country). Is this possible?

Yes. If you live outside Portugal but want to send an order to an address in Portugal or to one of the many European destinations we ship to, simply proceed with the normal purchase process and select the delivery address. The invoice will be sent by email.

Pickups (Store and Pickup Point)

How does in-store pickup work?

For any order placed in our online store, you can choose to collect it from our physical store during its opening hours. This option allows you to enjoy all the benefits of the online store but does not allow payment to be made in the physical store. Usually, your order will be ready for collection within an estimated 2 hours after online payment and upon receiving an email confirming availability for pickup. The order can be collected by you or anyone you designate, provided the pickup PIN is presented, which will be sent to you by email once the order is ready for collection.

Can I collect my order at a pickup point?

Yes, to provide greater convenience to our customers, we have a partnership with CTT Expresso, which allows you to collect your order at one of the many delivery points available in Portugal.

What happens if no one is at the delivery address?

Changes & Special Requests

Can I cancel my order?

Order Issues

What should I do if my order arrives in poor condition?
