What measures can a company take to effectively communicate a 'Wrong Address Disclaimer' policy to customers?

It is the responsibility of the buyer to make sure that she or he enters the delivery address correctly. Orders are generally shipped the next business day. If you made an error in your delivery address, please contact us before 5pm the day of your order, so the address can be corrected for you. However, we will NOT be able to correct address errors for orders that have already shipped. The only thing we can do is wait to see if the package gets returned to us. If it does get returned to us, we can then ship it to the correct address. Please note that we get dinged a $ 4 fee for every wrong address so it would be great if you could ensure that the address is entered correctly.

What steps should be taken to ensure proper delivery acceptance of goods or services?

A contact person must be available to accept the shipment between the hours of 9am - 5pm. This contact person must be available to sign and confirm the items they have ordered as part of the shipment. We do not deliver to P.O. Boxes.

How are refunds processed?

Refunds must be processed to the original payment method used. Unfortunately, we cannot provide any exceptions.

What is Auto-Ship?

Auto-Ship is a feature that you can use to receive the same order on a regular schedule. For example, you could order paper towel and set Auto-Ship to Delivery Every 30 Days to ensure you never run out!

How do I set up Auto-Ship?

If you're interested in setting up an auto-ship option, please send us an email with the following details:

1. The products you wish to receive automatically.
2. The quantity of each product you want in each shipment.
3. The frequency of the orders, whether you prefer weekly, bi-weekly, monthly, or every two months.

Once we receive this information, we'll promptly set up your auto-ship order according to your preferences.

How do I cancel Auto-Ship?

If you want to cancel an auto-ship order, you must contact support@send123.com and request cancellation so your auto-ship order setup will be stopped immediately.

Which items can I Auto-Ship?

Most items are available for an Auto-Ship. Some exceptions include Desks, Filing Cabinets, and other items that likely do not need to be renewed. However, if you ever require any of these exceptions to be included in your auto-ship orders for any reason, please don't hesitate to reach out to us. We'll work with our supply partners to accommodate your request.

What payment methods do you accept?

We accept ACH payments and EFT Electronic Funds transfers. We also accept Mastercard, Amex, Discover, Visa, and PayPal. If you must pay by check, we can accommodate yet would much prefer electronic payments.

How long does credit approval take for Order Financing?

Approvals can be as fast as 1-2 days yet typically takes 7-14 days. If you have a Dun & Bradstreet number that can help speed up approvals by 7 days or more.

How fast can you fund my orders?

We can fund the same day or next day provided you already have credit approval with us and you have all the paperwork in order.

Does everyone get credit approval?

Sadly no. Our Underwriting team has approval standards to adhere to and as such Send 1-2-3 reserves the right to make its own determinations of creditworthiness, and to approve or disapprove any business and /or any purchase order for any reason - see full policies and conditions.

Is the Order Financing that you offer considered a loan?

No. Send 1-2-3 acts as your intermediate supplier. Part of our services is to make payment directly to your supplier on their terms as trade credit. As your new supplier, we simply mark-up the invoice we send to you for offering these services.

Is the fee that you charge considered interest?

No. The fee that we charge is for providing the trade credit for your use to source the products you require to fulfill orders. We then mark up the invoice to you with a nominal fee for providing this trade credit as well as offering support and expertise in logistics, supply chain management and quality control.

How quickly do I need to repay you for Order Financing?

We offer 90-day repayment terms on trade credit. In some cases, we can extend this out longer upon further approval. Once the goods are ready for delivery to you, we then send you an invoice on 90-day terms. You can repay this invoice sooner and receive a 2% discount for every 31+ days the invoice is repaid in advance of the 90 days.

How much are the fees that you charge for Order Financing?

We charge a very competitive markup for providing you with our trade credit and very manageable repayment terms. To get further information, please reach out to either your broker partner or Send 1-2-3.

If I only require the Financing and buy direct from my supplier, can this be done? In other words, can you just lend me money?

No, our model is not designed this way. We have to be the supplier to you and purchase direct from your supplier in order for the Financing to be accessible.

If I require the Financing for working capital or asset purchases, can this be done? In other words, can you just lend me money?

No. Sorry, our model is not designed this way. We have to be the supplier to you and purchase direct from your supplier in order for the Financing to be accessible.

Can I utilize any one of your services or do I have to use them all as a package?

You can use any (individually) or all (full package) of our services. We offer an à la carte approach to the many services we offer. Also, as a bonus, if you do the Order Financing with us, we will give you our technology suite at no costs to you for each month that you do Financing.

My supplier is outside of North America, does this matter?

No worries, we work with suppliers all over the globe, and we can handle every aspect of the end-to-end logistics regardless of where your supplier and/or customer domiciles.

What countries do you offer the Order Financing?

Currently we only work with businesses that are based in Canada and USA.However, the Order Financing is not available in Saskatchewan, Quebec, California, Nevada, North Dakota & South Dakota. We hope to be able to start offering the Order Financing in these jurisdictions and in other countries in the near future.

Is there a contract that we need to sign for the Order Financing?

Yes, there is a standard Supply Agreement which details, among other things, the fees, trade credit and payment terms that needs to be signed prior to disbursement of funds.

Are there any hidden fees for the Order Financing?

All fees are detailed in the Supplier Agreement. If payment is made within the agreed upon term, we only charge the agreed upon mark-up. There are no other hidden fees like you might see with others such as legal fees, admin fees and setup fees to name a few.

Do I have to sign personally for the Order Financing?

No. Your business is responsible for the repayment. However, there is a bad actor limited guarantee required in order to avoid fraud or misrepresentation, and you would not be personally liable for anything outside of this.

Do I have to put any money down on the Purchase Order?

No. We handle 100% of the cost of your order. We pay the 3rd party supplier on their terms, and we do not use letters of credit; we send the funds thus nurturing the entrepreneur-to-entrepreneur relationship that you have created with your supplier.

As my new supplier, how does warranty and quality control work?

We will oversee the production and/or delivery with your supplier and we can arrange for 3rd party inspections before shipment. However, you will be responsible for any warranty or defects from your supplier.

Do I have to give up or will you take equity in my business to use the trade credit facility?

No. Our model is not designed this way. We must be the “supplier of record” to you and purchase direct from your supplier in order for the trade credit to be assessable. We will not and do not want to take equity on the business you have worked so hard to build.

Are consulting services eligible for trade credit coverage?

Unfortunately, no, the trade credit is not available on consulting services.

What products are eligible for trade credit coverage?

To be eligible, you need to be able to show proof of delivery of a 'product'. Eligible ‘products’ would be items like hard durable physical goods, raw materials, and supplies. In some cases, subject to underwriting approvals, soft items for eCommerce &/or tech services with a defined start, end and proof of completion may be eligible. Our process is here.
