Discovery-Only Shops

  • If a user purchases directly from a discovery-only shop outside the platform, cancellation handling is controlled by that shop's own process and policy.
  • StoreAO may help users locate the correct shop contact path, but StoreAO does not directly process those cancellations.

Verified Online-Selling Shops

  • Where a shop is enabled to accept online orders through StoreAO, cancellation requests are usually possible only before the seller has started preparing, packing, or dispatching the order.
  • Once seller-side fulfillment has materially begun, cancellation may be denied or handled under the relevant seller policy.
  • Users should act quickly and use available support or order-management tools if they want to request cancellation.

Seller and Platform Roles

  • Participating shops remain primarily responsible for deciding cancellation eligibility based on order status, preparation stage, and applicable policy.
  • StoreAO may assist by receiving complaints, escalating requests, reviewing repeated issues, and taking platform-level action where needed.
  • StoreAO does not promise that every cancellation request will be approved.

For users

Use StoreAO to discover nearby shops, compare offerings, contact shops, and place orders with verified online-selling sellers when that option is enabled.

  • Some shops are listed only for offline discovery, direct contact, and store visit support.
  • Verified online-selling shops may accept COD orders through the platform.
  • Users should review shop details, delivery terms, and seller policies before placing an order.

For shop owners

StoreAO gives shop owners a local discovery presence and may enable online selling only after manual verification.

  • Manual verification is required before a shop can be enabled for online selling on StoreAO.
  • Shop owners remain responsible for listings, pricing, stock, order acceptance, delivery, and refunds.
  • Repeated quality or complaint issues can lead to warnings, restrictions, suspension, or removal of online-selling access.
