- Within central Nairobi: In many cases, we offer free or subsidized delivery for qualifying orders; exact charges (if any) are communicated during order confirmation or on our promotions.
- Within Nairobi County (outside CBD): Standard rider/vehicle delivery charges may apply based on distance and order size; these will be communicated before dispatch.

We support flexible payment options suited to electronics and gadget purchases in Kenya.
- Cash on Delivery (COD): Available within Nairobi and select locations where our riders or partners can safely handle COD.
- Pre-payment: May be required for high-value orders, bulk orders, or deliveries outside Nairobi, especially where items are dispatched via courier.
- Mobile money and bank transfers: We accept payment via mobile money (e.g., M-Pesa) and other digital channels communicated by our sales team.
We reserve the right to decline COD for certain orders or locations and to request pre-payment instead, especially in cases of previous failed deliveries or suspected fraudulent orders.
Address Accuracy and Customer Responsibilities
To ensure successful delivery, customers are responsible for providing complete and accurate delivery details.
- Provide clear delivery address details, including building name, street, floor, landmarks, town, and nearby known locations.
- Provide a reachable phone number and ensure your phone is on during the expected delivery window for coordination with our rider or courier.
- If you cannot personally receive the order, you may appoint a representative to receive on your behalf; this must be communicated to us in advance.
If the rider or courier is unable to deliver due to an incomplete or incorrect address, or if no one is available to receive the parcel after reasonable attempts, we may reschedule the delivery and additional charges may apply.
Delivery Inspection and Proof of Delivery
We strongly encourage customers to inspect their items upon delivery.
- Check the outer packaging for signs of damage or tampering before signing or confirming receipt.
- Where feasible, confirm that the item received matches your order (model, color, specification) before the rider or courier leaves.
- For orders delivered via courier, retain any delivery receipts and ensure your name and contact details are correctly captured.
We may request your signature, ID, or delivery OTP/SMS code as proof of delivery, especially for high-value items or COD orders. This proof of delivery will serve as confirmation that the order was successfully delivered in good condition.
Failed Delivery Attempts and Re-Delivery
A delivery attempt may be considered failed in any of the following scenarios:
- The customer or appointed representative is unavailable at the delivery location.
- The customer’s phone is unreachable or switched off during the scheduled delivery window.
- The address provided is incomplete or inaccurate and the rider/courier cannot locate the customer.
In such cases:
- We will attempt to contact you to reschedule delivery within a reasonable period.
- Additional delivery or storage charges may apply depending on your location and courier policies.
- If we are unable to reach you after multiple attempts, the order may be returned to our store and treated in accordance with our Refund & Returns Policy.
Shipping of Returns and Exchanges
If you need to return a product, please first review our Refund and Returns Policy and contact us for guidance.
- All returns should be sent or delivered to: Territories Technologies Ltd, Old Mutual Building, Kimathi Street, 3rd Floor Room No. 324, Nairobi.
- Customers are responsible for shipping costs when returning items, unless otherwise agreed or where the product is defective or incorrectly supplied as confirmed by our team.
- Shipping costs are generally non-refundable; where a refund is approved, we may deduct the cost of return shipping from the refund amount.
For high-value returns, we recommend using a trackable shipping service or purchasing shipping insurance, as we do not guarantee that we will receive your returned item if sent without tracking.
Risk of Loss and Damages in Transit
Risk of loss and damage passes to you upon delivery of the product to the delivery address you provided.
- If the item is visibly damaged on delivery, you should inform the rider/courier immediately and contact us as soon as possible with photos and details.
- If a parcel appears tampered with or opened, you may refuse to accept it and notify us immediately for investigation.
- Once an item is accepted and signed for in good condition, subsequent damage may be treated under warranty or after-sales terms, where applicable.
We will assist you in liaising with the courier where necessary, but we may not be liable for delays or damages caused by third-party courier services beyond our reasonable control.
Special Orders, Pre-Orders, and Bulk Purchases
Certain products or configurations may be available only on pre-order or as special orders.
- Pre-orders and special orders may require full or partial advance payment before we import, configure, or source the product.
- Estimated delivery timelines for pre-orders will be communicated at the time of ordering and may vary depending on supplier lead times and logistics.
- Bulk orders may have customized delivery timelines and shipping arrangements, agreed upon in writing with our sales team.
Any changes to pre-order or bulk order timelines will be communicated to you as soon as we become aware of them.
Changes to Delivery Details
If you need to change your delivery address, contact number, or preferred delivery time:
- Contact us as soon as possible via phone, WhatsApp, or email before your order is dispatched.
- If the order has already been dispatched, changes may not be possible or may incur additional delivery charges, especially for upcountry courier deliveries.
We reserve the right to decline address changes for security reasons, particularly for high-value or COD orders.
Unforeseen Delays
Delivery timelines are estimates and may be affected by circumstances beyond our control, such as:
- Adverse weather conditions, heavy traffic, or road closures
- Courier network disruptions or operational challenges

In such cases, we will make reasonable efforts to keep you informed and to deliver your order as soon as conditions allow.
