1. Information about this Website and Our Services
ForwardMe offers international package and mail forwarding services, along with package consolidation services, originating from the U.S. to numerous countries throughout the world.
When You successfully sign up for an account, You will receive a dedicated U.S. address and a unique suite number where You can receive Your packages and mail. When ForwardMe receives a package addressed to You at our facility, we will notify You (typically via email and through Your account interface) and post the package details on Your ForwardMe Account landing page. After You have utilized the services available with Your account (which may include, but are not limited to, package inspection, content photography, or special handling requests), completed all necessary customs forms accurately, and selected Your preferred shipping carrier and service level, we will send the package to Your designated address in Your home country in strict accordance with Your instructions and subject to these Terms.
ForwardMe offers three (3) distinct types of accounts:
- A Free Account: With a Free Account, Your shipment will generally be sent to You in the same package that we receive it in, without consolidation. Storage limitations apply.
- Premium Membership: This membership, available with options for an annual fee or month-to-month invoicing, allows You, upon Your request, to have multiple packages consolidated into a new, single box. This service can substantially reduce Your international shipping costs. Premium members typically benefit from extended free storage periods compared to Free Accounts.
- VIP Membership: Our VIP Membership includes all the benefits of Premium Membership and often provides for even longer free storage periods, potentially dedicated customer support, and other exclusive features or benefits as may be detailed on this Website or communicated to VIP members from time to time.

Pekala, "TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF SALE" (SATIŞ ŞART VE KOŞULLARI) bölümüyle devam ediyorum. Bu bölüm oldukça uzun olduğu için birkaç alt başlık halinde sunacağım.
7. TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF SALE
The terms and conditions set forth in this section govern the sale of paid Products and Services offered by ForwardMe on this Website.
7.1. Paid Products and Services
Some of the Products and Services provided on this Website, as part of the Service (e.g., membership subscriptions, shipping fees, consolidation fees, special handling requests, extended storage, Personal Shopper service), are provided on the basis of payment ("Paid Products" or "Paid Services").
The fees, duration (if applicable, such as for memberships), and conditions applicable to the purchase and use of such Paid Products and Services are described below, in the dedicated sections of this Website (e.g., pricing pages, account information pages), or as otherwise communicated to You by ForwardMe. All fees are quoted in U.S. Dollars unless otherwise specified.
7.2. Product and Service Descriptions
Prices, descriptions, or availability of Products and Services are outlined in the respective sections of this Website and are subject to change without prior notice at ForwardMe's sole discretion. ForwardMe will endeavor to provide reasonable notice of significant changes where feasible.
While Products and Services on this Website are presented with the greatest accuracy technically possible, representation on this Website through any means (including, as the case may be, graphic material, images, colors, sounds, or textual descriptions) is for reference only and implies no warranty as to the precise characteristics of the purchased Product or Service. The exact characteristics of the chosen Product or Service will be outlined during the purchasing process or in specific service agreements. It is Your responsibility to ensure that the services You select meet Your specific requirements.
7.3. Purchasing Process
Any steps taken from choosing a Product or Service to order submission form part of the purchasing process. The purchasing process for Paid Products and Services generally includes these steps:
- Users select the desired Product or Service and any applicable options (e.g., membership level, shipping destination, special requests), adding them to their order or cart.
- Users review their selections, making any necessary modifications.
- Users provide or confirm their billing information, contact details, and a valid payment method of their choice.
- For services involving shipments, Users provide or confirm the accurate and complete shipping address and all necessary recipient information.
- Users are presented with a summary of their order, including all applicable fees, taxes (if any), and costs (including, if any, delivery or shipping costs).
- By clicking the relevant button or mechanism on this Website to confirm and submit the order (e.g., "Pay Now," "Confirm Purchase," "Submit Request"), Users accept these Terms (including these Terms and Conditions of Sale) and commit to paying the agreed-upon price. In some instances, for specific services like initiating a mailout request, the purchasing process may involve utilizing funds deposited into the User's ForwardMe Account.
7.4. Order Submission and Contract Conclusion
When the User submits an order for a Paid Product or Service, the following applies:
- The submission of an order determines contract conclusion between the User and ForwardMe for that specific Product or Service. This therefore creates for the User the obligation to pay the price, taxes, and any possible further fees and expenses, as specified on the order page or in their Account.
- In case the purchased Product or Service requires active input from the User, such as the provision of personal information or data, specifications, customs declarations, or special wishes, the order submission creates an obligation for the User to cooperate accordingly and provide timely, accurate, and complete information. Failure to do so may result in delays, non-performance, or additional charges, for which ForwardMe will not be responsible.
- Upon submission of the order or initiation of a service request, Users will typically receive a receipt or confirmation (which may be electronic) that the order or request has been received. This receipt does not constitute acceptance of the order if preconditions for acceptance are not met (e.g., payment failure, suspected fraud).
7.5. Prices
Users are informed during the purchasing process and before order submission, about any fees, taxes (where applicable), and costs (including, if any, delivery or shipping costs) that they will be charged. Prices on this Website are displayed:
- either exclusive or inclusive of any applicable fees, taxes, and costs, depending on the section the User is Browse and the nature of the fee. Shipping costs, in particular, are dynamic and will be calculated based on the specifics of each shipment (e.g., weight, dimensions, destination, carrier, service level).
7.6. Methods of Payment
Information related to accepted payment methods (which may include credit/debit cards, PayPal, bank transfers, or Account balance) is made available during the purchasing process or on dedicated informational pages on this Website. Some payment methods may only be available subject to additional conditions or fees (e.g., bank transfer fees, currency conversion fees). In such cases, related information can be found in the dedicated section of this Website or will be communicated by the third-party payment processor.
All payments for services initiated directly via this Website are independently processed through third-party payment services (e.g., Stripe, PayPal). Therefore, this Website does not typically collect or store full payment information – such as complete credit card details – but may receive a notification once the payment has been successfully completed, along with a token or partial payment information for transaction identification. Users are subject to the terms and conditions of such third-party payment processors.
If a payment through the available methods fails, is declined, or is reversed by the payment service provider (e.g., due to insufficient funds, suspected fraud, chargeback), ForwardMe shall be under no obligation to fulfill the purchase order or provide the Service. Any possible costs, fees, or penalties resulting from the failed, refused, or reversed payment (including chargeback fees imposed on ForwardMe) shall be borne by the User, and ForwardMe reserves the right to recover such amounts from the User, including by debiting their ForwardMe Account balance or invoicing the User directly. Repeated payment failures may lead to Account suspension or termination.

7.7. Refunds
- Membership Fees: Payments for Premium and VIP membership fees are generally non-refundable once the membership period has commenced or the service has been activated. Any exceptions will be at ForwardMe's sole discretion.
- Deposits and Postage: Payments made as a deposit to Your ForwardMe Account balance or for postage/shipping costs that have not yet been applied to a processed mailout request are generally refundable, subject to the conditions below.
- Administrative Fee for Refunds: For each individual payment/order that is refunded at the User's request (where a refund is permissible), ForwardMe will charge an administrative fee of $5.00 (Five U.S. Dollars) plus the actual cost of processing the refund (e.g., bank fees for wire transfers, payment processor fees).
- Percentage-Based Refund Fee: In addition to the administrative fee mentioned above, ForwardMe also charges a fee equal to 4.3% (four-point-three percent) of the refund amount on all refunds processed.
- Chargeback/Payment Reversal Fees: ForwardMe will charge a specific fee for every chargeback or payment reversal initiated by the User or their financial institution on the User's Account. The chargeback/reversal fee for PayPal payments is $20.00 (Twenty U.S. Dollars). The chargeback/reversal fee for credit card payments is $35.00 (Thirty-Five U.S. Dollars). These fees are in addition to the original disputed amount and any other applicable fees. Engaging in chargebacks considered abusive by ForwardMe may lead to Account termination and collection efforts.
7.8. Package Addressing Requirements
Each package sent to ForwardMe for Your Account must be addressed correctly and completely. Your correct legal name (as registered on Your Account) and Your unique ForwardMe mailbox/suite number must be clearly written or labeled on each package.
If a package arrives at our facility with an incorrect or incomplete address (e.g., missing mailbox/suite number, an unknown or misspelled name, or a name not matching an active Account), ForwardMe will use reasonable efforts to determine the intended recipient.
- If ForwardMe is able to determine the owner of the package, it will be entered into the correct Account, and we will charge an address correction fee of $5.00 (Five U.S. Dollars).
- If the owner cannot be determined (e.g., due to grossly insufficient information) and a claim with verifiable tracking information is not provided by a User within thirty (30) days of the package's arrival at our facility, the package will be deemed unclaimed and will be disposed of at the sole discretion of ForwardMe, without any liability or compensation to any party.
7.9. Storage of Packages
-
Free Storage Periods:
- Free Accounts receive up to fifteen (15) days of free storage per package, calculated from the date the package is processed into Your Account.
- Premium Memberships receive up to forty-five (45) days of free storage per package.
- VIP Memberships receive up to one hundred twenty (120) days of free storage per package.
- Paid Storage: If a package needs to be stored longer than the allotted free storage time, You may purchase up to an additional twenty-eight (28) days of storage, subject to applicable fees which will be specified on this Website or in Your Account. This option must be exercised before the free storage period expires.
- Expiration of Storage and Abandonment: If You do not arrange for shipment or purchase additional storage for Your package(s) before the applicable free or paid storage period expires, the package(s) will be considered abandoned. Abandoned packages will be disposed of immediately at ForwardMe's sole discretion (which may include sale, donation, or destruction) without further notice and without any liability or compensation to You.
- Consolidated Packages and Storage Time: If a package is consolidated or combined with other package(s), the storage time limit for the resulting consolidated package will be based on the arrival date of the first/oldest package included in that consolidation. Adding a newer package to an existing consolidation or a package already in storage will not reset the storage clock for the older items or the consolidated package.
7.10. Abandoned Packages (General)
In addition to packages abandoned due to storage expiration (as per Section 7.9), if we receive a package for Your Account but do not receive the required fees (e.g., for shipping, customs pre-payment if applicable), necessary documentation (e.g., completed customs forms, proof of purchase if requested for verification), or shipment instructions from You within thirty (30) days of notifying You of its arrival or the need for such information/payment, we will deem the package to be abandoned. ForwardMe will dispose of such abandoned packages at its sole discretion, without liability or compensation.
7.11. Oversized Packages
Oversized packages are defined as any package exceeding the size or weight limits set forth in the ForwardMe shipping calculator available on this Website or those imposed by the User's specified carrier for the selected destination and service. Oversized packages may require special handling and may incur additional fees. If a package is too large or heavy to be shipped via available carriers or Your chosen method, or if it exceeds ForwardMe's operational limits, You may be required to:
- Authorize ForwardMe to divide the contents into smaller packages (subject to repackaging fees).
- Authorize ForwardMe to reduce the package size/weight if feasible (e.g., by removing excess packaging, subject to fees).
- Arrange for an alternative shipping method suitable for oversized goods, at Your own expense.
- Have the package returned to the original sender (if permissible by the sender and subject to return shipping costs and handling fees).
- Authorize disposal of the package.
7.12. Photographs of Packages
Upon Your request and subject to applicable fees (if any, as specified on this Website), ForwardMe will open a package received for Your Account and photograph its contents. This service is offered to allow You to confirm that the merchandise received is correct and appears to be in good condition before You request international mailout. Photo quality and scope will be as per ForwardMe's standard procedures. ForwardMe is not responsible for assessing the authenticity or operational condition of items, only their visual appearance.
7.13. Consolidation of Packages
ForwardMe offers package consolidation services, primarily for Premium and VIP members, allowing multiple packages to be combined into fewer outgoing shipments to potentially save on shipping costs.
- Responsibility for Missing Items: ForwardMe is not responsible for items alleged to be missing from a consolidated package unless there is clear proof (e.g., through our photographic records, if requested by You) that the specific missing item was indeed received by us from the original sender and was meant to be included in that specific consolidated shipment. Accordingly, we strongly urge You to submit a special request for ForwardMe to check and photograph the contents of each individual package upon its arrival at our facility and, if desired, again during the consolidation process to allow You to confirm that all expected items are accounted for. All such photo requests must be submitted prior to the consolidation process being initiated and are subject to applicable fees.
- Storage Time for Consolidated Packages: As stated in Section 7.9, consolidation of packages will not reset the storage time. Storage will be calculated based on the arrival date of the first/oldest package included in the consolidation.
- Removal of Catalogs/Promotional Material: Unless You explicitly request otherwise (which may incur additional fees or affect shipping weight), ForwardMe will, by default, remove all unsolicited catalogs, bulk advertising, and excessive retail packaging during consolidation to help reduce shipping weight and volume.

The User may read the privacy policy of Stripe and this Website to learn more about the data processing and User rights regarding their data.
- Within the Stripe checkout view, Users may be requested to also specify their billing and shipping address.
- Within the Stripe checkout view, Users will be given the possibility to choose the express checkout. The express checkout allows Users to finalize the purchase directly, making use of payment and contact information stored by common online payment processing services (such as “ApplePay”, “Google Pay”, “Microsoft Pay”).
To submit the order, Users must accept these Terms and use the respective button or mechanism on this Website, hereby committing to pay the agreed-upon price.
Order submission
When the User submits an order, the following applies:
- The submission of an order determines contract conclusion and therefore creates for the User the obligation to pay the price, taxes and possible further fees and expenses, as specified on the order page.
- In case the purchased Product requires an action from the User, such as the provision of personal information or data, specifications or special wishes, the order submission creates an obligation for the User to cooperate accordingly.
- Upon submission of the order, Users will receive a receipt confirming that the order has been received.
All notifications related to the described purchasing process shall be sent to the email address provided by the User for such purposes.
Prices
Users are informed during the purchasing process and before order submission, about any fees, taxes and costs (including, if any, delivery costs) that they will be charged.
Prices on this Website are displayed:
- either exclusive or inclusive of any applicable fees, taxes and costs, depending on the section the User is browsing.
Methods of payment
Information related to accepted payment methods is made available during the purchasing process.
Some payment methods may only be available subject to additional conditions or fees. In such cases related information can be found in the dedicated section of this Website.
All payments are independently processed through third-party services. Therefore, this Website does not collect any payment information – such as credit card details – but only receives a notification once the payment has been successfully completed. The User may read the privacy policy of this Website to learn more about the data processing and Users’ rights regarding their data.
If a payment through the available methods fails or is refused by the payment service provider, the Owner shall be under no obligation to fulfill the purchase order. If a payment fails or is refused, the Owner reserves the right to claim any related expenses or damages from the User.
Authorization for future PayPal payment
If Users authorize the PayPal feature which allows future purchases, this Website will store an identification code linked to the Users’ PayPal account. This will authorize this Website to automatically process payments for future purchases or recurring installments of past purchases.
This authorization can be revoked at any time, either by contacting the Owner or by changing the user settings offered by PayPal.
Retention of usage rights
Users do not acquire any rights to use the purchased Product until the total purchase price is received by the Owner.
Delivery
Performance of services
The purchased service shall be performed or made available within the timeframe specified on this Website or as communicated before the order submission.
Contract duration
Subscriptions
Subscriptions allow Users to receive a Product continuously or regularly over time. Details regarding the type of subscription and termination are outlined below.
Fixed-term subscriptions
Paid fixed-term subscriptions start on the day the payment is received by the Owner and last for the subscription period chosen by the User or otherwise specified during the purchasing process.
Once the subscription period expires, the Product shall no longer be accessible.
Automatic renewal of fixed-term subscriptions
Subscriptions are automatically renewed through the payment method that the User chose during purchase.
The renewed subscription will last for a period equal to the original term.
The User shall receive a reminder of the upcoming renewal with reasonable advance, outlining the procedure to be followed in order to cancel the automatic renewal.
Termination
Subscriptions may be terminated by sending a clear and unambiguous termination notice to the Owner using the contact details provided in this document, or — if applicable — by using the corresponding controls inside this Website.
If the notice of termination is received by the Owner before the subscription renews, the termination shall take effect as soon as the current period is completed.
Exception for Consumers based in Germany
However, regardless of the above, if the User is based in Germany and qualifies as a Consumer, the following applies:
At the end of the initial term, subscriptions are automatically extended for an unlimited period, unless the User terminates before the end of such term.
The fee due upon extension will be charged on the payment method that the User chose during purchase.
After extension, the subscription will last for an indefinite period and may be terminated monthly.
The User shall receive a reminder of the upcoming unlimited extension with reasonable advance, outlining the procedure to be followed in order to prevent the extension or terminate the subscription thereafter.
Termination
Extended subscriptions may be terminated at any time by sending a clear and unambiguous termination notice to the Owner using the contact details provided in this document, or — if applicable — by using the corresponding controls inside this Website.
If the notice of termination is received by the Owner by the end of the current month, the subscription shall expire at the end of such month.
User rights
Right of withdrawal
Unless exceptions apply, the User may be eligible to withdraw from the contract within the period specified below (generally 14 days), for any reason and without justification. Users can learn more about the withdrawal conditions within this section.
Who the right of withdrawal applies to
Unless any applicable exception is mentioned below, Users who are European Consumers are granted a statutory withdrawal right under EU rules, to withdraw from contracts entered into online (distance contracts) within the specified period applicable to their case, for any reason and without justification.
Users that do not fit this qualification, cannot benefit from the rights described in this section. The Consumer shall only be liable to the Seller for any diminution in the value of the goods resulting from handling the goods in a manner other than that necessary to acquaint him with the nature, characteristics and functionality of the goods.
Exercising the right of withdrawal
To exercise their right of withdrawal, Users must send to the Owner an unequivocal statement of their intention to withdraw from the contract.
To this end, Users may use the model withdrawal form available from within the “definitions” section of this document. Users are, however, free to express their intention to withdraw from the contract by making an unequivocal statement in any other suitable way. In order to meet the deadline within which they can exercise such right, Users must send the withdrawal notice before the withdrawal period expires.
When does the withdrawal period expire?
- Regarding the purchase of a service, the withdrawal period expires 14 days after the day that the contract is entered into, unless the User has waived the withdrawal right.
Effects of withdrawal
Users who correctly withdraw from a contract will be reimbursed by the Owner for all payments made to the Owner, including, if any, those covering the costs of delivery.
However, any additional costs resulting from the choice of a particular delivery method other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by the Owner, will not be reimbursed.
Such reimbursement shall be made without undue delay and, in any event, no later than 14 days from the day on which the Owner is informed of the User’s decision to withdraw from the contract. Unless otherwise agreed with the User, reimbursements will be made using the same means of payment as used to process the initial transaction. In any event, the User shall not incur any costs or fees as a result of such reimbursement.
…on the purchase of services
Where a User exercises the right of withdrawal after having requested that the service be performed before the withdrawal period expires, the User shall pay to the Owner an amount which is in proportion to the part of service provided.
Such payment shall be calculated based on the economic value of the service and be proportional to the part of service provided until the time the User withdraws compared to the full coverage of the contract.
UK User rights
Right to cancel
Unless exceptions apply, Users who are Consumers in the United Kingdom have a legal right of cancellation under UK law and may be eligible to withdraw from contracts made online (distance contracts) within the period specified below (generally 14 days), for any reason and without justification.

To this end, Users may use the model withdrawal form available from within the “definitions” section of this document. Users are, however, free to express their intention to withdraw from the contract by making an unequivocal statement in any other suitable way. In order to meet the deadline within which they can exercise such right, Users must send the withdrawal notice before the cancellation period expires.
When does the cancellation period expire?
- Regarding the purchase of goods, the cancellation period expires 14 days after the day on which the User or a third party – other than the carrier and designated by the User – takes physical possession of the goods.
- Regarding the purchase of several goods ordered together but delivered separately or in case of purchase of a single good consisting of multiple lots or pieces delivered separately, the cancellation period expires 14 days after the day on which the User or a third party – other than the carrier and designated by the User – acquires physical possession of the last good, lot or piece.
Effects of cancellation

However, any additional costs resulting from the choice of a particular delivery method other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by the Owner, will not be reimbursed.
Such reimbursement shall be made without undue delay and, in any event, no later than 14 days from the day on which the Owner is informed of the User’s decision to withdraw from the contract. Unless otherwise agreed with the User, reimbursements will be made using the same means of payment as used to process the initial transaction. In any event, the User shall not incur any costs or fees as a result of such reimbursement.
…on the purchase of physical goods
Unless the Owner has offered to collect the goods, Users shall send back the goods or hand them over to the Owner, or to a person authorized by the latter to receive the goods, without undue delay and in any event within 14 days from the day on which they communicated their decision to withdraw from the contract.
The deadline is met if the goods are handed to the carrier, or otherwise returned as indicated above, before the expiration of the 14-days-period for returning the goods. The reimbursement may be withheld until reception of the goods, or until Users have supplied evidence of having returned the goods, whichever is the earliest.
Users shall only be liable for any diminished value of the goods resulting from the handling of the goods outside of that which is necessary to establish their nature, characteristics and functioning.
The costs of returning the goods are borne by the User.

To the fullest extent permitted by law, our liability to the User, including liability for a breach of a non-excludable right and liability which is not otherwise excluded under these Terms, is limited, at the Owner’s sole discretion, to the re-performance of the services or the payment of the cost of having the services supplied again.
US Users
Disclaimer of Warranties
This Website is provided strictly on an “as is” and “as available” basis. Use of the Service is at Users’ own risk. To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, the Owner expressly disclaims all conditions, representations, and warranties — whether express, implied, statutory or otherwise, including, but not limited to, any implied warranty of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, or non-infringement of third-party rights. No advice or information, whether oral or written, obtained by the User from the Owner or through the Service will create any warranty not expressly stated herein.

The Owner does not warrant, endorse, guarantee, or assume responsibility for any product or service advertised or offered by a third party through the Service or any hyperlinked website or service, and the Owner shall not be a party to or in any way monitor any transaction between Users and third-party providers of products or services.
The Service may become inaccessible or it may not function properly with Users’ web browser, mobile device, and/or operating system. The owner cannot be held liable for any perceived or actual damages arising from Service content, operation, or use of this Service.
Federal law, some states, and other jurisdictions, do not allow the exclusion and limitations of certain implied warranties. The above exclusions may not apply to Users. This Agreement gives Users specific legal rights, and Users may also have other rights which vary from state to state. The disclaimers and exclusions under this agreement shall not apply to the extent prohibited by applicable law.
Limitations of liability
To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, in no event shall the Owner, and its subsidiaries, affiliates, officers, directors, agents, co-branders, partners, suppliers and employees be liable for:
- any indirect, punitive, incidental, special, consequential or exemplary damages, including without limitation damages for loss of profits, goodwill, use, data or other intangible losses, arising out of or relating to the use of, or inability to use, the Service; and

This limitation of liability section shall apply to the fullest extent permitted by law in the applicable jurisdiction whether the alleged liability is based on contract, tort, negligence, strict liability, or any other basis, even if the User has been advised of the possibility of such damage.
Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential damages, therefore the above limitations or exclusions may not apply to the User.

US Users

Governing law
These Terms are governed by the law of the place where the Owner is based, as disclosed in the relevant section of this document, without regard to conflict of laws principles.
