Refund policy

Here's How It Works

Step 1 — Log into your account
Visit account.usaflagco.com and log in with the email address you used when placing your order.

Don't have an account? Create one at account.usaflagco.com using the email address from your order to access your order history and submit returns without contacting us.

Checked out as a guest and unable to create an account? Email us at contact us with your order number and we'll assist you.

Step 2 — Find your order
Once logged in, select the order containing the item you'd like to return.

Step 3 — Request your return
Select the item(s) you want to return, choose a reason from the dropdown, add any additional notes if needed, and click "Request Return" to submit.

Step 4 — Wait for approval
You'll receive an email once your return request has been reviewed. If approved, the email will include your return shipping instructions.

Step 5 — Ship your return
Pack your item securely in its original packaging and include your proof of purchase. Return shipping is at your expense. We strongly recommend using a trackable shipping method — we are not responsible for returns lost in transit.

Step 6 — Receive your refund
Once we receive and inspect your return, we'll notify you by email. If approved, your refund will be processed within 7–10 business days to your original payment method.


Refunds

We will notify you once we've received and inspected your return and let you know if the refund was approved. If approved, you'll be automatically refunded to your original payment method within 7–10 business days. Please allow additional time for your bank or credit card company to process and post the refund to your account.

If more than 15 business days have passed since we approved your return and you have not received your refund, please contact us at contact us and we will investigate right away.

The charges on your original order, excluding original shipping and handling fees, are fully refundable when all return conditions are met.


10% Restocking Fee

A 10% restocking fee will be applied to all approved returns. This fee covers the cost of inspecting, repackaging, and restocking returned items. The restocking fee will be deducted from your refund total at the time your return is processed.

The restocking fee does not apply in cases where you received a defective item, a damaged item, or the wrong item due to our error. In those cases, we cover all costs and no restocking fee is charged.


Exchanges

The fastest way to ensure you get what you want is to return the item you have, and once the return is accepted, make a separate purchase for the new item. This ensures you receive your replacement as quickly as possible without waiting for the full return process to complete before your new order ships. To begin an exchange, start a return request using the Self-Serve Return steps above and place your new order separately at usaflagco.com.
