**GO Thyme · Gut Optimization**
_Last updated: July 2026_
At GO Thyme, we stand behind every product we make. If you're not satisfied with your purchase, we're here to make it right.
## 30-Day Satisfaction Guarantee
We offer a **30-day satisfaction guarantee** on all GO Thyme products. If you are not happy with your purchase for any reason, contact us within **30 days of delivery** and we will work with you on a refund or replacement — even if the product has been opened and tried. We genuinely want you to feel the difference.
## How to Start a Return or Refund
Email us at **info@gothyme.com** with:
1. Your **order number**
2. The **product(s)** you'd like to return or be refunded for
3. A brief **reason** (this helps us improve our formulas)
We typically respond within **1 business day** and will guide you through the next steps.
## Refunds
Once your return request is approved:
- Refunds are issued to your **original payment method**.
- Please allow **5–10 business days** for the refund to appear, depending on your bank or card issuer.
- Original shipping charges are non-refundable, except where an order arrived damaged, defective, or incorrect (see below).
## Damaged, Defective, or Incorrect Items
If your order arrives **damaged, defective, or incorrect**, contact us within **7 days of delivery** at info@gothyme.com with your order number and a photo of the issue. We will send a **free replacement** or issue a **full refund, including shipping** — no return shipping required on your end.
## Return Shipping
- For standard satisfaction-guarantee returns, the customer is responsible for return shipping costs (if a physical return is requested). In many cases, we may not require the product to be shipped back — we'll let you know when you contact us.
- For damaged, defective, or incorrect items, GO Thyme covers all shipping costs.
## Subscriptions (Subscribe & Save)
- You can **pause, skip, or cancel** your subscription anytime through your account portal or by emailing info@gothyme.com — no commitment required.
- To avoid being charged for an upcoming shipment, please make changes at least **2 business days before** your next scheduled order date.
- Individual subscription orders are covered by the same 30-day satisfaction guarantee above.
## Non-Returnable Situations

- Requests made **more than 30 days after delivery**.
- Products purchased from **third-party retailers** (please contact the original place of purchase).
- Free gifts or promotional items.
## Order Cancellations
If you need to cancel an order, email info@gothyme.com as soon as possible. We process orders quickly — if your order has already shipped, it will fall under our standard return process above.
