3.
Nature of the Pukamuka Service

Pukamuka provides international shopping assistance, parcel receipt, parcel processing, sorting, temporary storage, consolidation, repacking, forwarding and delivery coordination services to Ukraine.

Pukamuka may perform or coordinate postal, courier, forwarding, warehouse and delivery-related operations directly or through logistics partners, warehouses, postal operators, couriers, customs brokers, fulfilment partners and transport providers.

Pukamuka is not a bank, payment institution, electronic money institution, financial services provider, money transfer service, currency exchange service, investment platform or financial marketplace.

Any amounts paid by the Customer are used exclusively for the Customer's orders, shopping assistance services, warehouse processing, shipping, taxes, customs-related costs, third-party fees and other costs directly related to Pukamuka services.

Pukamuka does not allow its services to be used for money transfers between persons, cash withdrawals, financial balance top-ups, currency exchange, investments, sanctioned activities, fraud, money laundering, terrorist financing, or the purchase, transport or processing of prohibited or restricted goods.

4.
General Principle

Pukamuka aims to provide a clear, fair and predictable refund policy.

Refunds are handled depending on the stage of the order, the nature of the service performed, costs already incurred, the seller's store rules, carrier rules, customs requirements and applicable law.

The Customer understands that Pukamuka services may involve several independent parties, including online stores, payment providers, carriers, warehouses, couriers, customs brokers and public authorities. Costs charged by such third parties may be non-refundable.

5.
Legal Right of Withdrawal

The Customer may have a statutory right to withdraw from a distance contract within the term and under the conditions provided by applicable law.

For Pukamuka services, the right of withdrawal may be exercised before the requested service has been performed or before Pukamuka has incurred costs on behalf of the Customer.

If the Customer requests the performance of the service to begin before the expiry of the statutory withdrawal period, the Customer understands and accepts that:

  • services already performed cannot be cancelled retroactively;
  • costs already incurred may be deducted;
  • fully performed services may no longer be refundable, to the extent permitted by law;
  • costs charged by stores, payment providers, carriers, couriers, warehouses, customs brokers or public authorities may be non-refundable.
6.
When an Order May Be Cancelled

The Customer may request cancellation of an order if:

  • the shopping request has not yet been processed;
  • the product has not yet been purchased;
  • the parcel has not yet been received, processed or shipped;
  • the requested service has not yet been performed;
  • cancellation is allowed by the seller, carrier or other parties involved.

Pukamuka will review each cancellation request based on the actual stage of the order.

7.
When Cancellation May Be Refused

Cancellation may be refused or limited if:

  • the product has already been purchased;
  • the seller does not accept cancellation;
  • the product has already been shipped by the seller;
  • the parcel has already been received and processed;
  • the parcel has been sorted, consolidated, repacked, photographed or prepared for dispatch;
  • the parcel has been handed over to a carrier;
  • payment, processing, shipping, storage, return, customs or other third-party costs have already been incurred;
  • the order involves customised goods, time-sensitive goods, restricted goods or situations where return is not possible.
8.

11.
Internal Order Balance

If the Pukamuka system displays an internal balance, such balance is only an internal record of amounts related to the Customer's orders, services, shipping, refunds or costs.

This balance:

  • is not a bank account;
  • is not an electronic wallet;
  • is not electronic money;

  • cannot be used for transfers to other persons;

  • cannot be used for currency exchange, investments or payments to third parties unrelated to the Customer's orders.

Refunds of any internal balance are made only through available and permitted payment methods, subject to fraud prevention, sanctions, compliance and identity verification requirements.

12.
Refund Processing Time

Pukamuka will process refund requests within a reasonable time after receiving all necessary information.

The actual time for the Customer to receive funds depends on:

  • the payment method used;
  • the Customer's bank;
  • the payment provider;
  • the card scheme;
  • fraud prevention checks;
  • compliance requirements;
  • any disputes or investigations.

Pukamuka is not responsible for delays caused by banks, card schemes, payment processors or other third-party providers.

13.
Refund Method

Refunds are usually made using the same payment method used by the Customer, if such method is available and permitted.

If a refund through the original payment method is not possible, Pukamuka may request additional information and may propose an alternative method, subject to legal, fraud prevention, sanctions and compliance requirements.

Pukamuka does not issue refunds to third parties who are not related to the Customer's order.

14.

Return to the seller may be available only if:

  • the seller accepts the return;
  • the return period has not expired;
  • the product is eligible for return;
  • the product has not already been shipped internationally to Ukraine;
  • the product is not a prohibited or restricted item that cannot be returned;
  • the Customer pays the return costs;
  • the return is allowed by the carrier, applicable law and the seller's rules.

Pukamuka does not guarantee that the seller will accept the return.

15.
Defective, Incorrect or Non-Conforming Products

If the product is defective, incorrect, incomplete or differs from the seller's description, Pukamuka may, where possible, assist the Customer with information or operational steps for return or communication with the seller.

Pukamuka is not the manufacturer of the product and does not guarantee the quality, authenticity, functionality or conformity of products sold by third-party stores.

Any commercial warranty or product-related right applies according to the rules of the seller, manufacturer and applicable law.

16.
Chargebacks and Payment Disputes

If the Customer initiates a chargeback, payment dispute or complaint through a bank or payment processor, Pukamuka may suspend the processing of the order, delivery, refund or account access until the situation is clarified.

Pukamuka may provide payment providers, banks or authorities with relevant information regarding the order, payment, delivery, communication with the Customer and services performed.

17.
Purpose of the Shipping Policy

This section explains how Pukamuka coordinates the receipt, identification, sorting, warehouse processing, consolidation, dispatch and delivery of parcels to Ukraine.

Pukamuka is not always the actual carrier. Delivery may be performed through couriers, carriers, warehouses, logistics partners, customs brokers and other third parties.

18.

  • an international shopping address;

Warehouse operations do not include product authentication, technical testing, quality expertise or confirmation of conformity with the seller's description, unless expressly agreed in writing as a separate service.

20.
Available Countries and Routes

The availability of routes, international addresses and services may vary depending on:

  • the seller's country;
  • the warehouse country;
  • the transit country;
  • the destination country;
  • the product category;
  • the product value;
  • the parcel weight and dimensions;
  • carrier rules;
  • customs requirements;
  • operational restrictions;
  • sanctions or compliance requirements.

Pukamuka may modify, limit, suspend or temporarily close certain routes or services for operational, legal, logistics, customs, security or compliance reasons.

21.
Acceptance of Parcels into the Logistics Network

A parcel is accepted into the Pukamuka logistics process only after it has been received, identified and registered by Pukamuka or its logistics partner.

Pukamuka may refuse to accept, process or forward a parcel if:

  • the parcel is not properly addressed;
  • the Customer code or required identifier is missing;
  • the recipient data is incomplete or incorrect;
  • the parcel cannot be matched to a Customer account;
  • the packaging is damaged, open, transparent, unsafe or unsuitable for transport;
  • the parcel contains or may contain prohibited or restricted goods;
  • the parcel exceeds accepted size, weight, value or category limits;
  • the parcel may create legal, customs, operational, safety, reputational or compliance risk.

Acceptance of a parcel for processing does not mean confirmation that the contents are lawful, safe, correctly declared, compliant with customs rules or eligible for delivery.

22.
Packaging Requirements

The Customer is responsible for ensuring that the parcel is suitable for international transport, unless repacking is specifically performed by Pukamuka or its logistics partner.

The packaging must correspond to the weight, shape, size, nature and fragility of the contents and must protect the goods during handling, sorting, storage, loading, unloading, customs inspection and international transportation.

Fragile goods must be properly protected with suitable materials, such as bubble wrap, air cushions, separators, foam, cardboard protection, shock-absorbing materials or other protective packaging.

Sharp edges, glass items, electronics, liquids, cosmetics, perfumes and high-value goods must be packed in a way that reduces the risk of damage, leakage, pressure, impact or accidental opening.

Pukamuka may refuse, repack, reinforce, hold or return a parcel if the packaging is unsafe, damaged, unsuitable, transparent, leaking, open, contaminated or otherwise not fit for transport.

Repacking by Pukamuka does not guarantee full protection against damage and does not remove the Customer's responsibility for the nature of the goods and the risks of transportation.

23.
Size, Weight and Declared Value Limits

Pukamuka may apply maximum size, weight and declared value limits for parcels depending on the country, route, carrier, warehouse, product category and customs requirements.

Unless a different limit is displayed in the Customer account or confirmed by Pukamuka, acceptance of oversized, overweight or high-value parcels is subject to prior approval.

Pukamuka may refuse, hold, split, return or require special handling for parcels that exceed the accepted operational limits.

For high-value goods, Pukamuka may request:

  • invoice or proof of purchase;
  • proof of payment;
  • additional identification;
  • declared value confirmation;
  • insurance selection, if available;
  • special delivery or handling instructions.

If the Customer declares a value lower than the actual value, any compensation, customs processing or claim may be limited to the declared value, where permitted by law.

24.
Delivery Times

Delivery times displayed or communicated by Pukamuka are estimates, unless Pukamuka expressly confirms a guaranteed delivery time in writing.

Delivery times may depend on:

  • the seller's processing time;
  • domestic delivery time to the warehouse;
  • parcel receipt and identification;
  • warehouse workload;
  • sorting;
  • consolidation;
  • repacking;
  • photography;
  • compliance checks;
  • preparation of customs documents;
  • international transport;
  • customs procedures;
  • local carriers;
  • weather conditions;
  • holidays;
  • logistics disruptions;
  • authority checks;
  • force majeure.

Pukamuka is not responsible for delays caused by stores, carriers, couriers, authorities, customs, banks, payment processors or other third parties.

A parcel may be received at the international address or partner warehouse only if it complies with Pukamuka requirements.

The Customer must correctly indicate:

  • first and last name;
  • customer code, if assigned;
  • full address;
  • phone number, if required;
  • tracking number;

  • charge storage fees, if applicable;
  • refuse processing;
  • return the parcel, if possible;

  • volumetric weight;
  • parcel dimensions;
  • product category;
  • delivery route;
  • delivery method;
  • carrier costs;
  • requested additional services.

Pukamuka may weigh and measure the parcel after receipt.

If there is a difference between the data provided by the store and the data measured at the warehouse, the data measured by the warehouse or carrier may be used to calculate the final cost.

29.
Consolidation

The Customer may request consolidation of several parcels if the service is available.

Consolidation may reduce the number of shipments but does not guarantee a reduction in the final cost.

Pukamuka may refuse consolidation if:

  • the products are fragile;
  • the products are incompatible;
  • the products require separate transport;
  • there is a risk of damage;
  • customs or logistics requirements apply;
  • the parcel contains restricted goods;

  • security.

Repacking does not guarantee elimination of damage risk and does not guarantee a reduction in the final shipping cost.

Photography and External Inspection

If the service is available, the Customer may request parcel photography or external inspection.

External inspection is not:

  • technical testing;
  • functional testing;
  • quality expertise;
  • brand authentication;
  • confirmation of product originality;
  • confirmation that the product conforms to the seller's description.

Pukamuka may indicate visible damage, visible discrepancies or operational issues, but does not guarantee product quality, authenticity or functionality.

Where available, Pukamuka or its logistics partners may provide electronic tracking of the parcel during the stages of receipt, sorting, warehouse processing, dispatch, international transportation, customs processing and final delivery.

Tracking information is provided for operational convenience and may be updated with delay depending on the carrier, warehouse, customs authority or local delivery partner.

Pukamuka may provide or request proof of receipt, proof of dispatch, proof of handover to a carrier or proof of delivery, where such proof is available from the relevant logistics partner or carrier.

Proof of delivery may include electronic confirmation, courier status, delivery scan, recipient confirmation, locker delivery confirmation, carrier report or other operational evidence.

33.
Delivery to Ukraine

Delivery to Ukraine may be performed through logistics partners, international carriers, local couriers or other delivery companies.

The Customer is responsible for providing the correct delivery address, phone number, recipient name and other necessary information.

If the address is incorrect or incomplete, the parcel may be delayed, returned, redirected or delivered with additional costs.

34.
Failed Delivery, Refusal and Return

If delivery cannot be completed because the recipient is unavailable, the address is incorrect, the phone number is invalid, customs clearance is not completed, payment is not made, the recipient refuses the parcel, or the local carrier cannot complete delivery, Pukamuka or its logistics partner may take one or more of the following actions:

  • accurate product description;
  • indication of the real value;
  • provision of invoices, receipts or requested documents;
  • payment of customs duties, VAT, excise duties, brokerage fees and other mandatory costs;

Authorities may request additional documents, modify the declared value, apply taxes, hold the parcel or refuse import.

36.
Goods Damaged During Transport

  • photographs of the outer parcel;
  • photographs of the inner packaging;
  • photographs of the damaged product;

37.

  • declared value;
  • documents provided;
  • nature of the product;
  • compliance with prohibited and restricted goods rules;

38.
Loss, Damage and Compensation

If a parcel is lost, stolen, totally destroyed, partially damaged or partially missing during the logistics process, Pukamuka will review the claim based on the available evidence, carrier rules, declared value, insurance availability, service type and applicable law.

Compensation, where applicable, may be limited to:

  • the declared value of the goods, if a declared value or insurance service was selected and accepted;
  • the amount approved by the carrier or logistics partner;
  • the shipping fee paid for the affected service;
  • another amount required by mandatory applicable law.

If the Customer declared a value lower than the actual value, compensation may be limited to the declared value, where permitted by law.
