How to Return an Item

The easiest way to return an item for exchange is by visiting any physical Manna Christian Stores, you don’t need to return the item to the store of purchase, you can attend any Manna store, whether you purchased on-line or in-store. Just drop into your local Manna Store with Proof of Purchase and the Team in-store will help you exchange or replace the item.

If you would like to return a product for exchange which you ordered on-line but cannot get to a store, please contact our Web Customer Service Team to arrange the return.

If you purchased an item on-line and it is faulty or damaged and you wish to return it for a refund it must be returned to our Web Customer Service Team, please see detail to arrange this.

Adequate Proof of Purchase

Proof of purchase is required to get an exchange or a refund.

Your original Manna register receipt for in-store purchases or the invoice sent when your on-line order was delivered is the best form of proof of purchase.

Other adequate proof of purchase that is acceptable is:

• your online print out of your confirmation email.
• a credit card statement or a Bank statement, which can be used to find the sales information in the Manna sales program.

If you are a Manna Club Customer and the sale was logged against your club membership we will be able to find the details related to the purchase of the item in our computer system and no receipt is needed to process the exchange/refund, just let us know the approximate date and time of the sale and we can find the proof of purchase details as logged against your club membership.

Refund Method

When a refund is granted, we will refund the original purchase price against your original method of payment as indicated on the receipt, e.g. to the credit card you used to make the purchase. Refunds are not offered on change of mind returns, only exchanges or a Gift Voucher.
