5. Products & Services
5.1 Product Categories
We offer two categories of products:
- Standard Products: Ready-made items available for immediate purchase and dispatch.
- Custom / Made-to-Order Products: Items produced based on specific customer requirements. This includes providing measurements for sizing purposes, or requesting that an existing PRNTCODE print be applied to a product not currently available on our website. We do not offer fully custom or original print design services.
5.2 Product Descriptions
We make every effort to accurately describe our products on our Shopify store. However:
- On-screen colours may vary due to monitor calibration and cannot be guaranteed to exactly match the physical product.
- Dimensions are approximate unless otherwise stated.
- We reserve the right to correct errors in product descriptions without prior notice.
5.3 Custom / Made-to-Order Orders
For custom and made-to-order products:
- You are responsible for providing accurate measurements or product specifications at the time of ordering.
- A digital proof or order confirmation will be provided for your review and approval before production begins.
- Once the proof is approved and production has commenced, the order cannot be cancelled or modified without incurring additional charges (see Return & Refund Policy).
- PRNTCODE is not liable for defects or errors resulting from incorrect information provided by the customer.
6. Pricing & Payment
Product prices are displayed in the local currency of the customer's location, determined at checkout based on the shipping destination. Prices are inclusive of applicable taxes where required by law.
We reserve the right to change prices at any time. The price applicable to your order is the price displayed at the time of purchase.
Payments are processed securely by Stripe. PRNTCODE does not store full payment card details. In the event of a pricing error, we reserve the right to cancel and refund the order and will notify you before doing so.
7. Order Fulfilment & Contract Formation
By placing an order, you are making an offer to purchase selected products at the stated price. A binding contract is formed when you receive an order confirmation from us.
We reserve the right to refuse or cancel any order where a product is unavailable, a pricing error has occurred, or fraudulent activity is suspected.
Fulfilment timelines:
- Standard products: fulfilled within 1–7 business days of order confirmation.
- Custom / made-to-order products: production timelines are specified on the product page or communicated at time of ordering, and begin only after full payment is received and the digital proof is approved.
8. Delivery & Shipping
We deliver within the UAE and internationally where listed at checkout. Estimated delivery times are indicative only and may vary due to carrier delays, customs clearance, or circumstances beyond our control.

- For incorrect or undeliverable addresses provided by the customer, re-delivery fees may apply.
