What is Instant Exchange?
If wanting to exchange for a different size or style, we offer instant exchanges to ensure the item(s) do not go out-of-stock. Instant exchanges require a $1 authorization to place the exchange order immediately. You will only be charged for the exchange order if you do not return the original order within 14 days.
If you would like to refrain from using the Instant Exchange feature, you can submit a normal exchange without the $1 authorization and your new order will be placed once your return is in-transit to our warehouse.
What is Shop Now?
Not wanting to wait for your refund before you keep shopping at Matisse? Shop Now lets you shop your favorite styles with the credit from your return with a 10% bonus!
What happens to the remaining funds if I spent less using my Shop Now credit than I did on the original order?
If you spent less than you did on your original order, the Shop Now bonus is removed from the new order and any remaining funds are refunded to the original payment method.
Why doesn't my Shop Now credit match the price of the item I am returning?
If you used a discount on your order, your credit will reflect the price you paid rather than the value of the item. In order to keep your discount in place, please move through our exchange process rather than selecting a new item through the Shop Now feature.
What is Shop Later?
After submitting a return for a refund and if your return is eligible, you will be presented the Shop Later + Bonus Credit offer on the return status page. By accepting this offer, you will convert your full refund to store credit + a 10% bonus to use later, or exchange for a new product via Shop Now.
If exchanging for a new product via Shop Now and you spent less than you did on your original order, the Shop Now bonus will be removed from the new order and any remaining funds will be refunded to the original payment method.
How long is my store credit food for?
Forever! Store credit in the form of gift cards never expire.
What happens if my exchange order was cancelled because the item(s) were out-of-stock?
If your exchange order cannot be fulfilled due to an out-of-stock item, you will receive an email notification and a refund will be issued to the original method of payment.
