When you place an order, you are making an offer to purchase. Askelo reserves the right to accept or decline your order for any reason. Your order is not accepted until Askelo confirms acceptance and payment is processed.

We offer a 90-day money-back guarantee. If the Askelo isn't right for you, contact us within 90 days of delivery for a full refund, even if you've used it. We want you to actually try it.

There is no restocking fee, and you do not have to give us a reason. We just ask that all parts come back, meaning the gel separator and the fabric sleeve, and that you cover the return shipping cost. Original shipping costs are not refunded. If you ordered a multi-pack, return the whole order for a full refund, or return any unopened packs for a partial refund on those.

Please inspect your order when it arrives. If anything is defective, damaged, or incorrect, contact us right away at care@getaskelo.com. We will replace it or refund it, and you will not pay return shipping on an item that arrived faulty.

Once we receive your return, we'll inspect it and notify you. If approved, your refund will be processed to your original payment method within 10 business days. Your bank may take a few days longer to post it. If more than 15 business days have passed since we told you your refund was approved and it still hasn't arrived, please contact us at care@getaskelo.com.
