Payment & Shipping

We offer you to pay with PayPal, credit card, Klarna invoice, Klarna instant bank transfer or bank transfer.

Note:
As of 6 December 2024, the payment method "Sofortüberweisung" will no longer be available. After this date, orders can no longer be placed using Sofortüberweisung. If you placed an order before this date and require a refund, it will still be processed as usual. Thank you for your understanding!

It may be that not all payment options are displayed or selectable due to previous orders. This is often related to the payments of past bills. The release of the payment methods is automatically checked again for each order.

That depends on which payment method you have selected.

PayPal, credit card, payment in advance
If you have any problems with one of these payment options, please feel free to contact our customer service (/pages/kontakt) .

Klarna
Since we work with Klarna as a payment service provider, we cannot manage your payment. If you have problems with your payment via Klarna, please contactKlarna customer service (https://www.klarna.com/de/kundenservice/). You will also (/pages/alle-infos-zu-klarna) find a page with important information about this payment method.

You can see the bank details on the overview page that opens directly after your order. You can always access this page via the confirmation email we send you. Click on the blue button "View order" in the email. In the same email you will also find the bank details at the bottom.

If you have a customer account with us, you will always see the bank details in your account.

The goods will be reserved for 7 days and shipped to you immediately after receipt of payment. If no payment is received after this period, the system will automatically cancel your order.

Klarna is a payment service provider that we work with.

As soon as you select Klarna as a payment option, you handle all payment matters through Klarna. You pay your bill to Klarna and they in turn forward your money to us. SPORTKIND will continue to coordinate everything else related to your order. Klarna only comes into play again when you request a refund for an order that was paid for through Klarna. In this case, Klarna will transfer the amount back to you.

If something is unclear to you, you can find out more about details on our Klarna information page (/pages/alle-infos-zu-klarna) .

The express checkout gives you the opportunity to access your data (delivery address, etc.) directly if you are already registered with one of the providers displayed. You can then complete the purchase directly without having to enter your data again.

With us you can complete the express checkout via shopPay, Paypal, GooglePay and ApplePay and access your data that you have already stored with the respective provider. If you would like to use one of the checkout variants and are not yet registered, you can also do this directly. Please follow the instructions that appear after selecting the channel.

For shopPay you need a mobile phone number to register, to which you will then receive a code by SMS that confirms your identity. You can then enter your order data. The next time you use shopPay , you will again receive a code with which you can verify your identity and your data is immediately available. You can also visit the shopPay help page (https://help.shop.app/hc/en-us/categories/360006187651-Shop-Pay) for more information.

With Paypal, you log into your Paypal account and can use the data already stored for you there (address, payment options, etc.) for your purchase. You will then be redirected back to our shop.

To use GooglePay , you need a Google account and a valid credit card for payment.

If you place your order using an Apple device, you will also be shown the option ApplePay . If you have stored your data with Apple, there are different ways of verifying your purchase depending on the device you are using. Simply follow the instructions on your respective device.

HERE (https://www.dhl.de/en/privatkunden/pakete-empfangen/an-einem-abholort-empfangen/packstation/empfangen-packstation.html) you will find further information from DHL.

Alternatively, after prior registration on the DHL website (https://www.dhl.de/en/privatkunden/pakete-empfangen/an-einem-abholort-empfangen/packstation.html), you can also have your parcel shipment redirected to your desired Packstation or branch via the tracking email you receive after shipping.

As soon as your order has been picked up by our shipping company, you will receive an email from us with your shipment number. You can use this number to track the status of your order via the DHL service page (https://www.dhl.de/de/privatkunden/dhl-sendungsverfolgung.html). It may happen that the tracking number does not contain any information shortly after you receive the shipping confirmation.

If you have chosen Premium Shipping with DHL Express, you will receive an SMS or email from DHL Express about your shipment status and the option to change the delivery date and location.

You have various options for redirecting your order via the tracking mail. The available delivery options depend on the shipping method of your order.

For a merchandise mail, you can select a drop-off location or change the delivery day.

For parcel shipping, you can select a drop-off location, change the delivery day or have it delivered to a desired neighbour. After registering on the DHL website (https://www.dhl.de/en/privatkunden/pakete-empfangen/an-einem-abholort-empfangen/packstation.html), you also have the option of redirecting your parcel to a Packstation or branch.

If your order is returned to us for various reasons (not collected, no address at the letterbox or cannot be determined, etc.), our customer service will contact you as soon as the parcel has arrived back at our premises. We will then be happy to dispatch it again. Please note, however, that the order will usually have to be repackaged and we will have to charge you the shipping costs again.

Please note: In the case of an express order that is returned to us, DHL will automatically process it by express. The additional costs incurred for this will be charged to us by DHL and will be deducted from the order total. For orders to non-European countries, additional return handling costs (e.g. customs duties...) may be added.

If you deliberately do not collect your parcel or refuse to accept it, this will be considered a breach of contract. In this case, we are not obliged to refund the shipping costs already incurred. Furthermore, additional costs may be incurred for redelivery if you still wish to receive the parcel. Please ensure that you collect your parcel in good time to avoid such inconvenience.
