What’s the difference between Standard and Premium Shipping?Updated 3 days ago

While both Standard and Premium Shipping typically deliver within 2–3 weeks, the key differences lie in the level of service, handling speed, and peace of mind offered.

Standard Shipping is our free, economy-style option. It includes basic tracking and is a reliable choice for most orders. We dispatch orders on the same or next business day, and delivery usually takes 2–3 weeks.

Premium Shipping, on the other hand, is a paid upgrade that includes:

  • Priority handling

  • Expedited dispatch

  • More detailed tracking updates

  • Extra care at every step of the process

While the estimated timeframe remains the same (due to carrier and customs processes), Premium Shipping ensures your order is given top priority, which may help it arrive sooner—especially during peak periods. It's ideal when you're ordering something special or simply want added confidence and attention on your delivery.

In short, you're not just paying for potential speed—you're paying for a higher standard of service.
