Orders & Payment

3.1 ₹99 Advance Booking Model

All orders require a ₹99 advance booking payment to confirm your order. This advance helps us procure fresh ingredients and schedule your batch for cooking. The remaining amount is collected at the time of delivery (COD) or can be paid upfront for a 5% discount.

3.2 Order Confirmation

Your order is confirmed only after the ₹99 advance payment is received. Once confirmed, your batch enters our 24–48 hour fresh preparation cycle.

3.3 Cancellation

You may cancel your order within 2 hours of placing it (before cooking begins) for a full refund of the ₹99 advance. Once food preparation has started, the advance is non-refundable.

3.4 Right to Cancel Orders

Apna Swad reserves the right to cancel any order due to:

  • Incorrect information provided by the customer
  • Unavailability of ingredients or stock
  • Suspected fraudulent activity
  • Operational issues beyond our control

If we cancel your order, the full ₹99 advance will be refunded within 5–7 business days.

3.5 Payment Methods

We accept UPI (Google Pay, PhonePe, Paytm), credit and debit cards (Visa, Mastercard, RuPay), net banking, and Cash on Delivery (COD). All online payments are processed securely through Razorpay / Shopify Payments.
