How can I cancel an order?
For technical reasons, once you have placed an order you cannot cancel it on your own. If you want to cancel an order, we will do that for you. The best thing to do is send us an e-mail at [email protected] and tell us exactly which order you want to cancel. If possible, you can tell us also the reason for the cancellation.
How can I check the status of an order?
Once we have handed the item(s) over to the parcel delivery company, we will send your tracking number to you by e-mail. You can easily look up the delivery status on the service provider’s homepage and find out where the shipment currently is.
If you have a customer account you have the possibility to view the details of your order in your customer account under "Order History". Unfortunately, this is not possible for guest orders.
Also, it may happen that in certain countries no package tracking can be offered.
Why are different shipping costs displayed?
Changes in shipping costs are possible due to the size of the package, the country and the shipping method.
Return/ Revocation/ Warranty/ Repair
How do I return an item?
In case of withdrawal (within 14 days) please use our withdrawal form. The withdrawal period is 14 days from the day on which you or a third party named by you, who is not the carrier, have taken possession of the goods. More information about the process and consequences of a revocation can be found here.
How does the warranty service work?
In the event of a warranty claim or during the statutory cancellation period, the return of your Einhell products is always free of charge. Simply create a user account on the Einhell Service website and register your device for return by entering the serial number or article/identification number. We will organize the transport of the device and bear the costs incurred. The warranty service will decide on a case-by-case basis whether the transport will be carried out as an online return or as an on-site pickup.
Please note: The warranty or repair service is currently only available in Germany and Austria.
This is how it works:
- Check if your product is within the warranty period. As a result, you can decide between 1. "Warranty service "or 2. "Repair service".
- Create a personal MyEinhell user account in the Einhell Service or log in.
- In the user account, you can register your Einhell product for return by entering the serial number or item/identifier number.
How does the repair service work?
Of course, we also offer our convenient repair and return service for devices whose warranty period has already expired. Any costs incurred for collection or shipping will be invoiced together with the repair costs.

Payment
What payment methods are offered?
Currently the following payment methods are offered: Credit card and PayPal
An overview of the offered payment methods can be found here.
What is 3-D Secure?
3-D Secure is a security standard developed by Visa and MasterCard® for card payments on the Internet. For Visa this solution is called 'Verified by Visa', for MasterCard® 'MasterCard®SecureCode?'. 3-D Secure is currently offered with the highest security standard, the smsTAN procedure. Here you will receive a 6-digit TAN (transaction number) by SMS to a mobile phone number of your choice for each transaction or sales enquiry as well as for every situation in which you have to identify yourself. With this service your 'online shopping' is now even more secure. Whether via your home PC or other Internet access channels ? 3-D Secure with smsTAN protects your credit card payment on the Internet and prevents unauthorised persons from paying with your credit card data. Would you like to learn more about 3-D Secure? Please contact the financial institution of your credit card.
What happens if I do not want to use the 3-D Secure procedure or if I do not register for 3-D?
The use of the 3-D Secure procedure is always mandatory for credit card payments if the Internet retailer also offers the procedure. If you do not wish to use the 3-D Secure procedure, but the Internet retailer provides for this procedure, you will not be able to use your credit card to make purchases from this Internet retailer. For Internet retailers without 3-D Secure and all other retailers, your credit card can of course be used without restriction at any time.
What should I do if I have received an error message with my credit card payment?
There are a few points to bear in mind when paying by credit card: The card number must not contain spaces, dots or special characters. In addition, the card type (e.g. Visa or MasterCard), the exact expiry date and the verification number must be indicated. If the payment does not work despite correctly entered data, there may be problems with your internet browser (e.g. Internet Explorer). In this case, you can try restarting the Internet browser. If the problem persists, we recommend that you contact your bank, as only your bank can tell you the reason for the problem.
