What is a Balqees Subscription?

Note: Subscription orders are different from one-time purchases. Please read this policy before subscribing. If you have any questions, contact us at support@balqees.com before placing your first order.

Delivery & frequency
Logistics

You choose how often your subscription is delivered: every 4 weeks (28 days), 6 weeks or 8 weeks, counted from the date of your first successful order. You can change the interval at any time from your account. You will receive a reminder notification 3 days before each billing date so you are never charged unexpectedly.

Delivery reminder schedule:
• 3 days before billing: Email & SMS reminder
• Day of billing: Order confirmation
• Dispatch notification with tracking link
• Delivery confirmation

If a delivery attempt fails due to an incorrect address or unavailability, we will make one additional attempt. Failure after two attempts will result in the order being returned. A replacement will be dispatched at no additional cost if the error was on our part.

Discounts & promotional codes
Pricing

Subscription products are already priced 20% below our standard retail price. As a result, the following discount rules apply:

  • ✕
    Standard discount codes are not applicable to subscription products by default, because subscriptions are already priced below our standard retail rate.
  • ✓
    Subscription-specific promotions may be offered from time to time and will be communicated via email. These will be applied automatically to eligible orders.
  • ✓
    Total order discounts configured specifically to apply to subscription orders will work as intended, if activated by Balqees.
If you believe a promotion should apply to your subscription, please contact our team. We will review and apply eligible discounts manually where appropriate.
8
Fair use & re-subscription
Protection
  • ✓
    Re-subscribe any time: You can start a new subscription whenever you like.
  • ✕
    Abuse prevention: Where the subscription discount is being systematically misused, for example by repeatedly subscribing and cancelling straight after the first order, we may review the account and restrict access to subscription pricing.
Important: This fair use policy is not intended to penalise genuine customers. Customers with genuine concerns will always be treated with understanding.
