How do I pay for my order? Is it safe to use my credit card? - When you checkout you are directed to eWay secure payment gateway where you can enter your details safely.

Payment Options - On checkout you can either opt to pay by Credit Card, Paypal, Poli Live Bank Transfer, Afterpay or over the counter bank deposit.

If you opt to pay by bank deposit your order will be shipped once the payment clears which generally takes 6-24 hours, overnight but in some cases (public holidays etc) this may take longer. If you are with Westpac it will be instant.

Do you give free samples, use bloggers or influencers, or do sponsorship support? We use our Social Media comps (FB, Twitter or Insta) and our newly relaunched 'Taste Testers Club' as fun ways to promote our products and give out samples to our loyal social media fans. We do at least one FB competition a week and each month we randomly select (draw) 1-10 new Taste Testers who we contact via email and through our winner's blog. (All social media winners will be posted on our winner's blog.)

We don't usually use/ collab with bloggers or social media influences, but feel free to email us at hello@unitedsweets.co.nz as every situation is different and considered.

Please send you request and information to Leyton at hello@unitedsweets.co.nz. Currently we are open to new opportunities to help out our local and National communities.

I'm after a certain product can you order it in for me? - We might already have a product you're interested in coming so please contact us and we'll see if we can help you out! Otherwise use our FB page to stay up to date or make any suggestions, The more support a product has, the harder we try to get it in.

What if my order is wrong, lost or damaged? - We will always do our best to make sure our customers are happy. Please see check out our Terms page or contact us to discuss any problems directly, please email us at hello@unitedsweets.co.nz - We treat every enquiry different, depending on the situation.

I have a food allergy, how do I find out the ingredients in one of your products sold? - If a product is listed on the website as Nut Free, Gluten Free, Caffeine Free, Sugar Free, Diary Free, Gelatin Free or Fat Free, it is because it is on the outside packaging of the product itself. Please contact us for specific product information if it is not listed and we will try to help. Currently we do not have the information for all products, but are hoping to have it in the future. We would suggest searching the internet if you are unsure about a product before you buy and more importantly, before consuming.

How long will my order take to arrive? - Orders will arrive between 1- 7 days depending on the delivery option you choose and the day your ordered. (Currently there are no weekend courier runs, so if you order Thursday night or Friday your order will arrive Monday.) To have the best possible chance of getting your parcel overnight please have your order in before 2pm daily, so it can make our last courier pick up for the day, which is at 4pm. We try our very best, working late and past our normal operation hours to get all packages sent off asap. Please check your track and trace first and give your parcel 7 days before contacting us about your order. (In case it was made on a Thursday but doesn't arrive until the Monday or Tuesday if in a rural area.) Rural packages usually take 1 extra day. To see our shipping rates.

A product is 'Currently Out of Stock' or Disappeared from the site. How long until it's available again? - Most items will be back in stock within two weeks others could be up to a month or 2 depending on the date of the next shipment. But they could also be able to be put back into stock immediately. If you are after something in particular, please contact us straight away by emailing at hello@unitedsweets.co.nz or for the quickest response, please Facebook message us FB :)

What's the difference between an 'expiration date' and a 'best before date? - An 'expiration date' is the date after which the product is of no use, whereas the 'best before date' indicates the date before the product gives its original flavour. Therefore it is still safe to consume products after this 'best before' date.

Our Policy on Best Before Dates - We stock short shelf life items - the dates are always listed so please check before you buy. Some items may include, but are not limited to: Hostess Twinkies, HoHos, Zingers, Cupcakes, Snoballs and Ding Dongs, certain flavours of chips and other products. Once you buy them, they are not returnable, since the information is in the products description for you to see. This is why the choice is yours if you want them. Best by dates are put on by the manufacturers to advise you that the product is still good, but quality may decline. So please think about it before you buy if you are unsure, we want your buying experience to be a good one! For those of you who love a great deal check out our dated but still delicious items.
