Enter your name and postcode again here, as well as the Packstation’s address. Click on “Click here for the Packstation finder” to find the address of your preferred Packstation.

Where do I find my order number?
The order number (ORD41400100000…) can be found on your invoice.

I have ordered three shirts and three shirts are also listed in the order confirmation. However, only two shirts are listed in the dispatch confirmation. How many shirts will I receive?
Unfortunately, in this case one of the shirts you have ordered has sold out. You will therefore only receive two of the shirts you have ordered. We will have already amended the invoice amount accordingly.

I have ordered the wrong size, can I still cancel my order?
As your order is processed as quickly as possible, it is no longer possible to subsequently amend the size.

What is the order status of my order?
Firstly, once you have successfully placed an order, you will receive an “Order confirmation email”. As soon as your goods are dispatched, you will receive an “Order confirmation and invoice” email. In this email you will find the tracking link for DHL. You can track the progress of your shipment via this link.

Can I subsequently change my invoice address? (E.g. when ordering as a company)
It is currently not possible to subsequently amend the invoice. If you wish to place your order under your company details, please create a separate customer account for this.

What are the delivery costs?
The delivery costs are €3.95 (Germany, Austria, Netherland, Belgium, Luxembourg and France). Goods with a value of €150.00 and above are delivered free of charge to Germany, Austria and Netherland. 

Is there a minimum order value?
There is no minimum order value.

Which carrier do you use to deliver the goods?
To deliver our goods we use DHL Paket GmbH, Sträßchensweg 10, 53113 Bonn, Germany. Please check the consignment for transport damage upon receipt and, if necessary, document any damage. If possible, have the damage confirmed by the delivery agent.

How long will it take for me to receive my order?
When your goods have been dispatched, you will receive a dispatch confirmation by email. In Germany you will receive your order within the next 1-3 working days. If you order from outside Germany this can take between 2-5 days. During the peak sales season, the delivery of your order may take a little longer. We thank you for your patience.

Which countries do you deliver to?
We deliver to Germany, Austria, the Netherlands (with the exception of Caribisch Nederland, Aruba, Curaçao and Sint Maarten), Belgium, Luxembourg and France (with the exception of the French overseas departments and territories). The merchandise you purchase only can be shipped to an address in the country related to the version you used to access the OLYMP Online Shop (e.g., products ordered through the country version for delivery to Germany will be shipped only to Germany).

Is there an invoice in the package?
Your invoice will be sent by email to you with the dispatch confirmation. If you have selected the payment method “payment on account - pay within 14 days”, you will receive the invoice by email directly from Klarna.

Is there an express delivery option?
We do not offer an express delivery option.

Can my delivery address differ from my invoice address?
Yes, that is possible. In the ordering process, under “Address & delivery”, select the option “Different delivery address” and enter the address details you want the goods to be delivered to. You can also have your parcel delivered to a DHL packing station in Germany specified by you under “DHL Packing Station”.

Can I subsequently change my delivery address for an order that has already been confirmed?
Unfortunately, it is not possible to subsequently amend the delivery address. For this reason, please check your address details carefully before placing the order.

How can I locate a delivery that has not been received, but the order tracking status indicates that it has been delivered?
Firstly, check whether there is a delivery notification in your letterbox. It is possible that a neighbour or family member has already accepted delivery of your package on your behalf. In exceptional cases, the tracking information may not be correct. For this reason, as a final option, please enquire with the transport company delivering your goods. In this case, please have your tracking number or delivery confirmation ready at hand.

What happens to shipments that cannot be delivered?
If a shipment could not be delivered, it will be returned automatically to OLYMP. As the shipment cannot be resent, we will refund you the complete invoice amount. Please reorder your items from our Online Shop.

Payment by PayPal
Pay for your goods simply and easily using your PayPal account. As your bank or credit card details are stored by PayPal they do not need to be sent via the Internet every time you make an online purchase. This makes PayPal payments additionally secure.

Simple and easy – all it takes to pay is a couple of clicks. Once your bank or credit card details have been registered, PayPal stores them for future use, which means you don’t have to input them every time you make a purchase. Paying with PayPal is always free of charge for you as purchaser, and there are no set-up fees or standing charges.

Open a new PayPal account in 2 easy steps:

• - Open a PayPal account at www.paypal.com
• - Link this to a bank or credit card account.

After choosing to pay by PayPal and confirming your order, you will automatically be directed to your PayPal page. Here you make the predefined payment and you will then receive an order confirmation by email from PayPal and from OLYMP Digital KG.

I was not directed to PayPal. What should I do?
Firstly, check whether the “Additional address information” field has been filled in correctly. This field should be either left completely blank (containing no spaces) or must contain at least 2 characters.

If you are still not directed to PayPal, please contact our office by telephone free of charge on 00 800 65967222 from Monday-Thursday 8am -7pm and Friday 8am - 6pm; (please ensure you dial the prefix “00” or send an emailto: service.en@olymp.com.

Payment by credit card
Payments can also be made simply and securely by credit card (Verified by Visa or MasterCard Secure Code). Your payment is processed by PAYONE GmbH, Lyoner Straße 9, 60528 Frankfurt am Main, Germany.

The following credit cards are accepted:

• - Visa
• - MasterCard

First order:
For your first order by credit card you will need your 16-digit credit card number, expiry date and 3-digit card verification code (also known as a CVV or CVC). This verification code consists of the last three digits of your card number and is located on the signature strip on the back of your credit card.

Subsequent orders:
With all subsequent orders by credit card you can simply select the credit card details stored in your customer account.

Please note:
Your credit card will only be charged when the items you have ordered are dispatched. The reference shown on your credit card statement will be: www.olymp.com. In the case of returns, the amount to be reimbursed will be refunded to your credit card.

What is the security password for payment with a credit card?
In the case of some credit cards (VISA = Verified by VISA, MasterCard = SecureCode), you will be asked to enter a security password in addition to the usual credit card details. You will be asked to do this after you have entered your credit card details. This process serves as additional protection (to prevent credit card fraud). If this is the first time you have been asked to enter a password, then you must enter a new password. Alternatively, some banks also offer the mTAN authentication procedure. In this case, a single-use TAN for the current order process will be sent to your mobile phone on the mobile phone number you have registered with your bank.

Payment with Klarna - currently only possible in Germany, Austria and the Netherlands
 

Is there a limit for payment with Klarna?
The maximum shopping basket value for payment with Klarna is €1,499.99.

After I selected Klarna as the payment method, an error message appeared. What should I do?
Klarna might not be available to you as the payment method due to technical reasons. Please contact Klarna customer support via email, telephone or chat for a precise analysis of the error.

The invoice reference was missing or given incorrectly on the payment to Klarna. What happened?
Your payment will be processed by Klarna manually. The allocation of the payment may therefore take up to 7 days. To avoid the risk of receiving repeated reminders, you should contact Klarna customer support directly via email, telephone or chat and explain the situation.

By when must the invoice be paid in the case of returned goods?
The payment due date at Klarna is always 30 days after dispatch of the goods, regardless of whether you return all or just some of the goods. After returned goods arrive at OLYMP you will receive an updated invoice from Klarna but the payment due date remains unaltered.
To avoid receiving payment reminders when returning goods, you can contact customer support at Klarna via email, telephone or chat and register your returns. The invoice will then be put on hold. The outstanding invoice amount can then be remitted to Klarna upon arrival of the returned goods.

How long does it take until a paid invoice is refunded by Klarna in the case of returned goods?
After the returned goods are processed at OLYMP, your Klarna account will be immediately adjusted to reflect the value of goods returned. Should you already have paid your invoice, the credit note amount will be refunded to you by Klarna straight away. However, this may take up to 7 working days after entering of the returns.

Do you have any questions about your payment with Klarna?
If you have any questions about your payment with Klarna, please contact Klarna’s customer service. Email: Germany: kundendienst@klarna.de / Tel: 0221 - 669 501 10 FAQs, Austria: E-Mail: kundendienst@klarna.at /Tel: 0720 - 883811 FAQs, Netherlands: kundendienst@klarna.nl /Tel: 020-8082852 FAQs

Payment via iDEAL
Using iDEAL, you can pay for your purchases really easily via internet banking. During the payment process, you will be redirected to your bank’s familiar payment environment where you can complete your payment via an online funds transfer as usual. An additional registration or an extra account isn’t necessary.

You have the option of paying with iDEAL if you use internet banking at ABN AMRO, ASN Bank, Friesland Bank, ING, Rabobank, SNS Bank, SNS Regio Bank, Van Lanschot Bankiers or Triodos Bank. Using this payment method, your payment is debited directly from your account.

Payment in general
What happens in the case of double payments (the customer has paid by credit card/PayPal/Klarna, but makes another payment)?
Our payments are monitored daily. If you have inadvertently made a double payment, you will be refunded the amount you have overpaid.

Can I order from abroad and pay with my credit card?
Payment from abroad, for example on holiday, is not possible as the order must be placed from the same country where your credit card is registered. This prevents stolen credit cards from being used.

Will my VAT be refunded to me when I make a purchase abroad?
Customers living outside Germany, who purchase goods or services in Germany can, under certain conditions, get back the VAT invoiced to them within the framework of VAT reimbursement regulations.

Unfortunately we are not able to offer this service in the Online Shop at OLYMP.COM due to technical reasons. We have more than 60 retail OLYMP stores throughout Europe and this service is of course available when you make a purchase in these stores.
