Everything related to orders, shipping, returns, and complaints

Order and payment

How do I place an order in the Sterntaler shop?

1. You are on the product page. Select the desired size by clicking the corresponding size icon. Then add the item to your shopping cart. You can view your shopping cart at any time by clicking the “Shopping cart” link (at the top right of every page) (first step of the ordering process).

2. In the second step of the ordering process, we ask for your details, such as your billing and shipping addresses. Here, you can either enter your personal details once for your current order or register so that our system saves your personal details for your next order. If you choose one-time registration, we will delete your details from our database after your order has been delivered.

3. In the third step of the ordering process, check that all the information you entered is correct. If you would still like to make changes, click the relevant step in the process diagram at the top to return to it. If all the information is correct, click “Submit order.”

4. As soon as we receive your order, we will confirm receipt by email.

Is there a minimum order value?

No, there is no minimum order value.

Would you like to change your shopping cart?

In the shopping cart, you can delete items, add more, or change the order quantity. Your order will only proceed once you have decided which items you want.

How do I log in to the Sterntaler shop?

You have the option to sign in as a guest once for your current order (your personal data will be deleted from our database after delivery) or to register.

By registering, you create an account so that your personal data will be displayed again with your next order and you will not have to enter it again. Registration requires a password.

Can I still cancel my order?
