Return Policy
Please read the following carefully to understand our returns and refund policy applicable to all eBikes, components, and accessories sold by Wallke. By purchasing from our website, you agree to these terms.
1. Scope of Application
This Return & Refund Policy applies strictly and exclusively to purchases made directly through the official Wallke website (wallkeebike.com). If you purchased a Wallke product through an authorized dealer, third-party platform (such as Amazon, eBay), or a second-hand market, your purchase is subject to the respective seller's return and refund policies. Wallke cannot process returns or refunds for items not purchased directly from our official website.
2. Order Cancellation & Modification
Upon placing an order, you will receive an Order Confirmation Email. We prioritize processing orders for customers who reply with "Confirm" to the order details. For orders without a reply ("low-risk orders"), we will automatically consider the order confirmed and arrange shipment within 3 business days of order placement.
| Order Status | Cancellation Policy & Fees |
|---|---|
| Pre-Shipment (Before tracking number is generated) | Orders can be modified or canceled free of charge. You will receive a full refund. Please contact our support team immediately to request a cancellation before your order is processed. |
| Post-Shipment (Tracking number generated) | Under the circumstance that you have confirmed the email and a tracking number has been generated, the order cannot be modified or canceled. If you wish to cancel after this point, it will be treated as a standard "Return," and you will be responsible for the round-trip shipping fees (the original shipping fee is non-refundable). |
3. E-Bike Return Policy
In principle, our return policy is valid for 14 days from the date of delivery. However, depending on the specific circumstances, we may extend the processing window up to 30 days. Because eBikes are heavy freight, our return policy and associated fees are strictly categorized based on whether the return is due to a quality issue or a non-quality issue.
A. Non-Quality Issues (Buyer's Remorse, Height/Size Not Fitting, etc.)
| Timeframe & Condition | Requirements | Deducted Fees |
|---|---|---|
| New & Unopened (Within 14 Days) |

| Open-Box / Test Ridden (Within 14 Days) |
|
Round-trip shipping costs+ 10% Restocking Fees |
| Open-Box / Test Ridden (15 to 30 Days) |
|
Round-trip shipping costs + 20% Restocking Fees |
| Over 30 Days |

|
B. Quality Issues (Defective Products)
| Timeframe & Issue | Resolution Policy & Fees |
|---|---|
| Open-Box (Minor Cosmetic Flaws) | For minor flaws that do not affect riding safety (e.g., peeling stickers, minor paint chips), buyers can contact our customer service team to receive appropriate compensation without returning the bike. Our team will determine the compensation/refund plan based on the specific situation. |
| Open-Box (Major Defect / Do not want to keep) | Full Refund. We will cover all return shipping costs and handling fees. The eBike must be packed in its original box. |
| Within 14 Days (Defects or Missing Parts) | If any defects or missing parts are discovered, we will send replacement parts free of charge based on the specific situation to resolve the issue. If the buyer insists on returning the eBike instead of accepting replacement parts, we may charge a certain amount for return shipping based on the specific circumstances. Please contact our customer service team, who will determine the exact fee. |
| Over 30 Days | Returns Not Accepted. We will provide corresponding Warranty Services (sending replacement parts and technical support) according to our standard warranty policy. |
Please remember that the Wallke technical team will carefully investigate all claims of quality issues. If it is determined that no manufacturing defect exists, but rather the damage was intentionally caused by human factors or misuse, we reserve the right to reject the free return and will charge the applicable return shipping and restocking fees.
All returns (whether for quality or non-quality reasons) MUST be shipped in the original Wallke bike box. Please retain your bike box even if it was slightly damaged in shipping. If you have discarded the original box, you will need to purchase a replacement box (approx. $50-$100) from a shipping carrier (e.g., FedEx, UPS) or a local eBike store before a return can be authorized.
4. Exchange Policy
Exchanges are only allowed within 14 days of delivery. The item must be unused, free from dirt or dust, and in the original packaging.
- Same model, different color: You are responsible for the round-trip shipping costs.
- Different model: You must pay the price difference (if applicable) plus the round-trip shipping costs.
5. Non-Returnable Items
For safety, hygiene, and logistical reasons, the following items are strictly non-returnable and non-refundable:
| Batteries | Due to federal shipping regulations (Hazmat Class 9) regarding high-capacity lithium-ion batteries, standalone batteries cannot be returned once shipped. |
| Accessories & Parts | All accessories, replacement parts, and upgrades are final sale. |
| Special Sales & Promotions | Special promotional items, clearance items, and "Full-new Open Box" eBikes are sold "as is". Depending on the specific terms of the promotion, these items may not be eligible for return or standard warranty rights. |
| Unauthorized Resellers | Products purchased from unauthorized third-party dealers or second-hand markets. |
6. Refused Deliveries & Gift Policy
Refused Deliveries
If a product is refused upon delivery (for reasons other than severe, documented shipping damage), the customer is responsible for all shipping charges. Refused shipments may take 2–3 weeks to return to our warehouse. An extra $200 refused delivery fee will be deducted from your refund to cover carrier penalties.
Gifts / Giveaways Policy
Free gifts or promotional items cannot be used as a reason for return or refund. If you are returning an eBike, all free gifts must be returned in brand-new condition. If a gift is missing or damaged, Wallke will deduct its full retail value from your final refund.
7. Price Match & Fraud Policy
Price Match Guarantee
Price match rules may vary depending on different holiday promotions (e.g., Black Friday, Cyber Monday, Flash Sales). Therefore, we do not make an absolute commitment to price matching here. Please refer to the specific rules and terms announced during each promotional event.
Orders Flagged as Fraud
Our system automatically screens for fraudulent transactions. We reserve the right to refuse, cancel, and refund any orders flagged as high-risk. If you believe your order was canceled by mistake, please contact our support team to verify your identity.
8. How to Request a Return
Returns without prior consultation and authorization from Wallke Support will be rejected. The customer will forfeit the item or bear the cost of having it shipped back to them.
| Step | Action Required |
|---|---|
| Step 1 | Gather your Order Number, the Reason for return, and Photos/Videos showing the condition of the bike (including the odometer reading and the original packaging). |
| Step 2 | Fill out our official return form: 👉Submit Return Request Form |
| Step 3 | Our team will review your request within 1–2 business days. If approved, we will provide you with a Return Merchandise Authorization (RMA ) number and the return shipping address. Do not send purchases back until authorized. |
| Step 4 | Once the returned item is received and inspected at our warehouse, we will notify you of the refund approval. Approved refunds (minus applicable shipping and restocking fees) will be applied to your original payment method within 5-7 business days. |
9. General Terms & Conditions
- Inspection Responsibility: Customers are responsible for inspecting the product immediately upon delivery. Any visible shipping damage must be reported to the carrier and Wallke within 7 days.
- Refund Processing Time: Once a refund is issued by Wallke, it may take your bank or credit card company additional time (usually 3-7 business days) to process and post the funds to your account.
- Policy Modifications: Wallke reserves the right to update, modify, or change this Return & Refund Policy at any time without prior notice. The policy in effect at the time of your purchase will apply to your order.
- Final Interpretation: Wallke reserves the right of final interpretation for all terms and conditions stated within this policy.
