How your gift reaches them
Local gift delivery
Many cakes and flowers are prepared or arranged by a delivery partner serving the recipientโs area. Delivery updates are different from parcel tracking.
Courier shipping
Selected hampers, cake jars, soft toys and custom photo gifts travel by courier. Allow for preparation and the transit schedule listed for that product.
Postal delivery
Greeting cards use postal services. Arrival estimates are longer than local cake delivery, and some postal services do not include tracking.
The details that help delivery
- Recipientโs full name and local phone number.
- Complete delivery address, including apartment, unit or suite.
- Correct postal code and useful access instructions.
- For hotels, hospitals and offices: venue name, room or floor, and reception contact.
- A reachable recipient or reception team for perishable gifts.
Dates, time zones & occasions
Plan around the recipientโs destination and the timeline for that gift. Business days and calendar days are different; use the schedule shown for the selected category. Australia hamper cutoffs use Melbourne time.
A requested date is different from a guaranteed hour of arrival. During festivals, severe weather or courier disruption, delivery arrangements may change.
Selected India locations offer midnight options. Other destinations follow their daytime delivery services.
Tracking & order updates
Courier tracking is provided where the selected service includes it. Local hand delivery may use order updates instead of a parcel-tracking number.
USA greeting cards sent by USPS Regular Mail do not include tracking. Keep the delivery address complete, including the apartment or suite.
Track your order โIf someone is not at home
Delivery arrangements depend on the gift and carrier. Perishable gifts may have only one attempt. Courier parcels may follow a calling-card, collection or safe-location process.
Include gate codes and reception instructions when needed. Leave-at-door requests depend on the recipientโs instructions and the delivery service.
Delivery terms โDelivery charges, clearly explained
The cost depends on the gift, delivery address and service. Some product listings include shipping; others have delivery charges. Use the order total for the selected destination. Remote or suburban delivery may attract an additional charge.
We do not apply a single delivery price to every country or gift type. Our team can help with a specific address or delivery question.
Your delivery questions, answered
Can I order from one country for delivery in another?
Yes. Start with the recipientโs delivery country, then choose a gift intended for that destination. The country you are buying from and the country receiving the gift can be different.
How long do Canada and USA gift hampers, custom photo gifts and greeting cards take?
Allow 3โ4 business days for Canada and USA gift hampers and custom photo gifts. Greeting cards take 4โ5 business days. Plan around these delivery schedules when choosing a gift for a particular occasion.
How far ahead should I order cakes and flowers?
For Canada, the USA and UAE, place your cake or flower order 1โ2 days before delivery. India offers next-day delivery and same-day delivery in major cities for eligible cakes and flowers.
Will my gift have a tracking number?
Tracking depends on the delivery method. Courier products may include a tracking link, while local hand deliveries may use order updates instead. USA greeting cards sent by USPS Regular Mail do not include tracking.
Can I choose the recipientโs birthday as the delivery date?
Use an available date offered for the selected gift. Locally delivered gifts and courier or postal gifts follow different schedules. Postal and courier estimates should not be treated as an exact arrival-time guarantee.
Can my gift be delivered to an apartment, hotel or office?
Provide the full address, apartment or suite number, recipient phone number and access instructions. For a hotel, hospital or office, include the venue name, relevant room or floor and reception contact details.
What happens if the recipient is unavailable?
The outcome depends on the gift and delivery method. Perishable gifts may have only one delivery attempt, while courier parcels follow the carrierโs instructions. Help the recipient remain reachable and provide entry or reception details.
Can I request midnight delivery?
Selected India locations offer midnight delivery options. Expressluvโs published terms do not offer midnight delivery in the USA, Canada, UK, UAE, Germany or Australia. Ask our team about an India surprise using WhatsApp.
Can I change the delivery address after ordering?
Message our team promptly with the order number and corrected details. Address changes are only possible before dispatch where the order can still be amended. An address cannot be redirected once dispatched under the published policy.
Will delivery charges be the same in every country?
No. Charges depend on the gift, destination and delivery service. Review the total shown for your order. Selected products may include shipping; remote or suburban addresses may have an additional charge.
