Why Modifications Are Time-Sensitive

Understanding Order Processing 📋

What Happens After You Order:

Minute 0-10:

• Order enters our system
• Confirmation email sent to you
• Order forwarded to seller

Minute 10-60:

• Seller receives order notification
• Seller begins processing
• BEST WINDOW for modifications

Hour 1-24:

• Order being prepared for shipment
• Item located in warehouse
• Package being assembled
• Modifications still possible but harder

After 24 Hours:

• Package likely ready or already shipped
• Label created
• Carrier may have picked up
• Very difficult to modify

💡 This is why immediate action is crucial!

Success Factors for Modifications

What to Do If Modifications Aren't Possible

Alternative Solutions 💡

If Order Already Shipped:

Option 1: Contact Carrier

• Intercept or reroute package (address changes)
• Hold for pickup at facility
• May incur carrier fees

• Save return shipping costs

If Cancellation Fails:

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: How quickly do I need to contact you to modify my order?

A: The sooner, the better! Within 1 hour gives you the best chance (80-90% success rate). After 24 hours, modifications are very difficult. If you need changes, contact us immediately.

Q: Can I add items to my order after placing it?

A: No, you cannot add items to an existing order. You would need to cancel the original order (if within the timeframe) and place a new order with all items, or place a separate order for the additional items.

Q: Can I remove one item from my order?

A: Not after the order is placed. Removing items requires cancelling the entire order and reordering only the items you want (if within cancellation timeframe).

Q: I applied the wrong discount code. Can I change it?

A: No, discount codes cannot be changed after ordering. You would need to cancel your order (if within timeframe) and reorder with the correct code applied.

Q: Can I change the shipping speed after ordering?

A: Possibly, if you contact us within 1 hour and the seller offers expedited options. This is seller-dependent and may require additional payment. After 24 hours, shipping speed cannot be changed.

Q: What if I realize my address is wrong after the order ships?

A: Contact the carrier directly using your tracking number to request package interception or rerouting. This may incur fees and isn't always successful. See our wrong address guide.

Q: Will there be fees for modifying my order?

A: No fees from Inspire Uplift for modifications made before shipping. However, carrier fees may apply if you need to redirect a package after it ships.

Q: Can I modify a personalized or custom order?

A: Personalized orders are even more time-sensitive. Contact us immediately (within 1-2 hours) as custom production often starts quickly. Once production begins, modifications are usually not possible.

Q: What if I need to modify multiple orders?

A: Contact us with all order numbers and requested changes. We'll do our best to modify all orders, but success depends on individual order statuses.

Q: If my modification request fails, what happens?

A: If we can't modify your order before shipping, we'll let you know and explain your options (wait for delivery and return, contact carrier for address changes, etc.). You'll still have solutions available.
