This page incorporates and covers our complete Terms of Service, Privacy Policy, Return & Exchange Policy, Shipping Policy, and Warranty terms. We've written everything in plain language to make it easy to understand.

2. Returns & Exchanges

We want you to be completely satisfied with your purchase! If something isn't quite right, we're here to help make it right. 

Please go to this returns link to start a return:

START A RETURN

Return Window

You have 60 days from the date you received your order to request a return. Items must be unused and in new condition. If your item is still unused after 60 days, please reach out - we're happy to work with you!

Return Fees

A flat $12 return label fee applies if you would like us to provide a prepaid return shipping label. Once you submit your return request, an invoice will be sent to you for payment. This fee must be paid before we can send you the label, and it covers the cost of shipping your item back to us.

If you prefer not to pay the $12 fee, you are welcome to take your return to any post office or UPS store and ship it back at your own expense using your preferred shipping method.

For Ossur products: We need to obtain a Return Authorization (RA) number from Ossur before processing your return. Don't worry - we'll handle this for you! For all other products, your Shopify order number serves as your RA number.

Exchanges

We do not offer direct exchanges. For the fastest service, we recommend placing a new order for your replacement item while initiating your return for the original item.

This approach offers several benefits:

  • Your new order ships immediately without waiting for the return to arrive
  • You can select from current inventory and available sizes
  • You avoid delays in receiving your replacement item
  • You'll receive a full refund once we receive and process your returned item

Please note that standard shipping costs apply to new orders.

Restocking Fees

A 20% restocking fee may apply in these situations:

  • Items that were shipped with free shipping (since we incur shipping costs)
  • EXOS, DeROYAL, and DJO products (our manufacturers charge us a 20% restocking fee)
  • Items with packaging that isn't in resellable condition - We kindly ask that you carefully open packages so they can be resold. If the packaging has been torn or damaged during opening, a restocking fee will apply since we can't resell the item in that condition.

Warranty Coverage

We stand behind our products! We provide a 4-month warranty against manufacturing defects from your delivery date.

What we'll do: If a product fails due to a manufacturing defect, we'll replace it with the same item or a comparable alternative at no charge (including free shipping). If the product is discontinued, we'll offer a replacement or store credit equal to the purchase price.

How to file a warranty claim:

  • Submit your claim within 30 days of discovering the issue (we'll consider later claims with good reason)
  • Provide your order number, clear photos from multiple angles, and a description of the problem
  • If possible, include a short video showing the failure
  • For used products, we'll ask about usage conditions and any modifications

What's not covered: Customer error, accidental damage, or normal wear and tear are not covered under warranty.

Damaged During Shipping

If your item arrives damaged, please provide clear photos of both the damage and the packaging within 5 days of delivery. We need the packaging to file a claim with the carrier. Important: No refund or replacement can be provided if the packaging or product is discarded before we can document the damage.

About Refunds

Replacement is our standard remedy for defective items. Refunds for used products are only issued in rare, documented situations:

  • Replacement is impossible
  • Replacement would unreasonably delay a medically necessary device and no reasonable alternative exists
  • A documented exception is approved by management

Full refunds require return of the item (when feasible), proof of purchase, and manager approval.

Return Authorization (RMA) Requirement

All returns and warranty claims require an RMA when necessary. Items must be returned using the provided RMA label and packaging instructions. In cases where disposal is authorized for hygiene or safety reasons, we'll require photographic evidence before disposal.

Documentation

To process returns and warranty claims, we collect product photos/videos, order history, support communications, and shipping information. If you're unable to provide requested information, your request may be delayed or denied.

Chargebacks & Disputes

You always have the right to contact your card issuer if you have concerns. However, if you initiate a chargeback before contacting us, card issuer timelines may limit our ability to issue replacements or refunds while the dispute is active. We encourage you to reach out to us first so we can resolve the issue quickly!

If a chargeback is filed, we'll respond with full documentation including order records, tracking information, RMA details, photos, correspondence, and proof of replacement to contest illegitimate disputes.

Consumer Protections

We comply with all applicable consumer protection laws and payment card network rules. This policy does not negate any statutory rights you may have.

Shipping Policy

We ship super fast, so please call us right away if you need to cancel or change an order: 800-580-9887

Most orders typically arrive in 3-4 business days even with economy or free shipping. We want you happy!

Shipping Schedule:

Orders with UPS Next Day Air and 2nd Day Air placed by 2 PM Eastern Standard Time (EST) will ship on the same business day Monday-Friday. The exception is Exos, DeRoyal, and DonJoy bracing items.

UPS Ground and Economy shipping may ship the following business day (NOT SAME DAY) depending on the volume of orders as well as holidays. UPS and Economy delivery times are estimated delivery times (not guaranteed).

UPS 2nd Day and Next Day have guaranteed delivery commitment times up to 9 PM depending on package volume. However, winter storms and strong thunderstorms may cause delays that are not covered by UPS or USPS.

We process orders Monday - Friday. We are closed on Saturday and Sunday.

Orders placed after 2 PM EST ship out the following business day Mon-Fri.

Please note: DeRoyal and DonJoy (DJO) Exos  items have a 1 to 2-day delay before the product is shipped out.

UPS Shipping Service Policy

OrthoTape offers expedited shipping options through UPS to get your products to you as quickly as possible. Please review the following important information about our UPS shipping services:

Next Day Air Service
UPS Next Day Air delivery is guaranteed by UPS as long as there are no weather conditions, flight delays, or other circumstances beyond their control that impact delivery. While we ship your order promptly to meet Next Day Air standards, the delivery guarantee is subject to UPS's terms and conditions.

2nd Day Air Service
Please note that UPS no longer guarantees 2nd Day Air delivery times. While we make every effort to ensure your package arrives within the estimated timeframe, delivery dates for 2nd Day Air shipments are estimates only and are not guaranteed by UPS.

Service Guarantee Information
For complete details about UPS service guarantees, terms, and conditions, please visit ups.com or contact UPS directly.

OrthoTape Late Delivery Refund Policy
Because UPS does not guarantee certain shipping services, OrthoTape has established the following customer refund policy for late deliveries:

  • Next Day Air: If your Next Day Air package is delivered late, you will receive a $10 refund
  • 2nd Day Air: If your 2nd Day Air package is delivered late, you will receive a $5 refund

To request a late delivery refund, please contact our customer service team with your order number and tracking information. We will verify the delivery date and process your refund promptly.

Our Commitment
OrthoTape is committed to shipping all orders as quickly as possible. We cannot control carrier delays, but we will always work with you to ensure your satisfaction with our service.

Return Shipping:

If you need to return an item, a flat $12 return label fee applies if you would like us to provide a prepaid return shipping label. Once you submit your return request, an invoice will be sent to you for payment.

Important: The $12 flat rate return shipping applies to domestic orders within the contiguous United States (lower 48 states) only. International customers, as well as customers in Alaska and Hawaii, are responsible for arranging and paying for their own return shipping.

If you prefer not to pay the $12 fee, you are welcome to take your return to any post office or UPS store and ship it back at your own expense using your preferred shipping method.

Products must be returned within 60 days of purchase and in new, unused condition. Start a return here: https://orthotape.com/account

Delivery and Package Responsibility:

USPS and UPS use GPS location services to identify where a product is delivered. Customers are responsible for ensuring their porch or address is a safe location to leave a package. If an order shows it was delivered by USPS or UPS, a claim must be filed with them to get a replacement or refund. If USPS or UPS deny the claim, we cannot honor the replacement or refund of the product as GPS shows a confirmed delivery. At that point, you will need to report the issue of theft to the police.

Customers must inspect all packages within 5 days and report any suspected damage during shipping. After this time period, we reserve the right to not honor any warranty claims of damage during shipping. Please provide a clear photo of the damage along with a photo of the packaging to file a claim. No refund or replacement will be provided if the packaging or product is discarded.

Restocking Fees:

Items shipped with free shipping will have a 20% restocking fee, as shipping is not actually free, and we incur a cost from the shipping company. This cost will be deducted from the refund.

All EXOS, DeROYAL, and DJO Products have a 20% restock fee per manufacturer. The manufacturer charges us 20% to return these items.

For questions or concerns, contact us at help@orthotape.com or call 800-580-9887

Processing Schedule

  • We process orders Monday through Friday
  • We're closed on Saturday and Sunday
  • Orders placed after 2:00 PM EST ship the following business day
  • DeRoyal and DonJoy (DJO) items have a 1-2 day processing delay before shipment

Order Changes & Cancellations

Because we ship so quickly, please call us right away at 800-580-9887 if you need to cancel or change an order.

Delivery & Package Security

USPS, FedEx, and UPS all use GPS location services to confirm delivery. You're responsible for ensuring your delivery address is a safe location for packages. If tracking shows your order was delivered but you didn't receive it, you'll need to file a claim with the carrier. If the carrier denies the claim (GPS confirms delivery), we cannot honor a replacement or refund, and you'll need to file a police report for theft.

Inspection Period

Please inspect all packages within 5 days of delivery and report any suspected shipping damage. After this period, we reserve the right to not honor warranty claims for shipping damage.
