FAQ

Welcome to objcts.io store. This FAQs are intended to address commonly asked questions for our customers located outside of Japan.

Order Placements

How do I purchase if I’m shipping to a destination outside of Japan?

Outside Japan, this website is powered in partnership with Global-e. Global-e manages transactions (payments, orders, shipping, etc.).

You can select the shipping country and your preferred language from the dropdown menu located inside of the footer. If you’re on a mobile device, click the three lines in the left hand corner to reveal the menu that allows you to apply the same settings. This will change the currency and the language of the website. Once you are at checkout, you will see local payment methods and calculations for any appropriate shipping, duties, taxes and other customs fees. You will also have the option to change the language for important information in checkout.

Why can’t I purchase all the items available on Japanese objcts.io shop?

Not all items will be available globally due to various laws and rules regarding import of certain goods. Global-e will contact you if a particular article is restricted from shipping to your country. If you have questions on why an item is unavailable to ship to your country, please email help@objcts.io.

What currency do you use for your prices?

We display and collect payments in the local currency when you select your shipping country. You will be charged in the currency listed at checkout.

objcts.io is not responsible for any currency exchange or other fees charged by banks or payment processors.

What will my billing statement say?

Your credit card will be billed by Global-e and your billing statement will read "Global-e/objcts.io".

What payment methods do you accept?

We offer over 35 different payment methods. Major payment methods like Visa, Mastercard, American Express, Paypal, and Diners are offered in over 100 countries along with many other popular local payment options specific to the region.

What does a product marked “Final Sale” mean?

Final sales means this item can not be returned for refund, credit, or exchange. If an item is marked “Final sale,” you will see it on the product page underneath the product name.

This return policy is in addition to, and does not affect, the separate legal right of withdrawal which is available only to EEA Consumers in some circumstances. Please reach out to help@objcts.io if you have additional questions or need help completing a return.
