Shipping policy
Order Processing and Production
All physical products sold by Bestis are custom-made and produced on demand following customer approval of a design preview.
Once approval is received:
-
Orders are transmitted for manufacturing
-
Production typically begins immediately
-
Production time varies depending on product type and network capacity
Estimated production time is generally 2–3 business days, although timelines may vary depending on order complexity or operational factors.
Fulfilment time forms part of the delivery estimate shown at checkout and is combined with shipping time to provide an indicative delivery date.
Production cannot begin until preview approval has been granted, and orders cannot be modified once manufacturing starts.
Production Network
Bestis uses Gelato to coordinate production and logistics through a distributed global network of printing partners.
This infrastructure includes:
-
Production facilities in 32 countries
-
Partnerships with 140+ print providers
-
Delivery coverage in 200+ countries
Orders are automatically routed to the optimal facility based on:
-
Delivery address
-
Product availability
-
Real-time production capacity
Most products are manufactured as close as possible to the delivery destination, which helps:
-
Reduce delivery times
-
Lower shipping costs
-
Minimise customs risk
Over 85–90% of orders are produced locally, although some orders may be fulfilled in another country where required for operational reasons.
Shipping and Delivery Times
Delivery times depend on destination, shipping method, and production location.
Typical ranges include:
-
Domestic standard delivery: 2–4 business days
-
Local-region delivery after production: 2–4 days
-
Cross-border delivery: 5–10 days
Standard shipping timelines are indicative only and not guaranteed. Delivery estimates may vary due to:
-
Carrier performance
-
Customs processing
-
Network conditions
-
Seasonal demand
-
Unforeseen operational factors
Customers receive available shipping options and estimated delivery windows at checkout before completing payment.
Shipping Methods
Depending on destination, the following shipping options may be available:
-
Economy / Standard
-
Express
-
Pallet freight for large orders
Shipping methods and pricing are determined dynamically based on location and order characteristics.
Sustainability and Local Production
Products are manufactured locally whenever possible through on-demand production. This model reduces transportation distances, waste, and carbon emissions compared to centralized manufacturing.
