Products & Stock

What is your current size range?

Sizing differs depending on the product and brand. Verbe Activ styles are available across a range of sizes, while footwear and products from brands such as On, HOKA, Birkenstock and Adidas follow their own sizing systems. Available sizes are shown on each product page.

What size should I order? 

We recommend checking the size guide on the individual product page before ordering, as sizing can differ between brands and styles. Where applicable, measurements and size conversions are provided to help you find the best fit.

Are the sizes shown on the website currently available?

Products and sizes displayed as available can be ordered through the website. Stock can move quickly, particularly on popular footwear and limited products, so availability can change.

Will sold-out items be restocked?

Selected products and sizes are restocked depending on supplier availability and demand. Keep an eye on Verbe.co.za and our social channels for restocks and new arrivals.

Can you source a size or product that is not currently listed?

You’re welcome to contact us at info@verbe.co.za with the product, colour and size you’re looking for. While we can’t guarantee availability, our team can advise whether additional stock may be arriving.

Is Verbe Activ suitable for intense workouts?

Many Verbe Activ products are designed specifically for training and movement, with features such as four-way stretch, breathable fabrics, moisture-wicking properties and quick-drying materials. As each style is different, we recommend checking the individual product description for its intended use and features. 

How do I care for my Verbe Activ clothing?

For most Verbe Activ garments, we recommend washing at 30°C, washing inside out and avoiding bleach, tumble drying, dry cleaning and ironing over prints or trims. Always check the individual product's care instructions before washing. 

Are product colours exactly the same as they appear online?

We do our best to represent product colours as accurately as possible. However, colours can appear slightly different depending on lighting, photography and your device or screen settings.

Returns & Exchanges

How can I submit a return or exchange?

Please visit our Returns Policy for the full step-by-step return and exchange process. If you need assistance, contact info@verbe.co.za with your order number and the item you would like to return or exchange.

Can I exchange an item for another size?

Where an item qualifies for return and the replacement size is available, an exchange may be possible in accordance with our Returns Policy. Because stock can move quickly, replacement sizes cannot always be guaranteed.

Can all products be returned?

Return eligibility can differ depending on the type of product. Certain products may have specific hygiene, safety or supplier-related return restrictions. Please check the Returns Policy section and any return information displayed on the relevant product page before purchasing.

Do I need to keep the product box and packaging? 

Yes. We recommend keeping the original shoe box, packaging, tags and accessories until you are certain you are keeping the product. Please do not damage, tape or place courier labels directly onto branded product packaging when returning an item.

What if I receive the wrong item?

Please contact us as soon as possible at info@verbe.co.za, including your order number and photographs of the item received. Our team will assist in resolving the issue.

What if my item arrives damaged or faulty?

Please contact our customer service team as soon as possible with your order number, photographs and a description of the issue. We’ll assess the matter and assist you with the appropriate next steps.

What is considered a manufacturing fault? 

Manufacturing faults generally relate to defects in materials or workmanship rather than damage caused by normal wear and tear, misuse, accidental damage or failure to follow the product's care instructions. Each case may need to be assessed individually.

What if an appliance or electronic product isn't working correctly?

Please contact us before attempting to repair, modify or open the product yourself. Depending on the product and warranty terms, the item may need to be assessed by the relevant supplier or manufacturer.


Payments

What payment methods do you accept?

Verbe accepts major payment methods including Visa, Mastercard, American Express and PayFlex. Available payment options will also be displayed securely at checkout. 

Do you offer PayFlex?

Yes. PayFlex is available on Verbe.co.za, allowing eligible customers to split their purchase into instalments according to PayFlex's applicable terms and approval requirements. 

Is it safe to shop on Verbe.co.za?

Yes. Payments are processed through secure payment systems, and Verbe does not require customers to send card details directly to us by email or message.

Where do I enter my discount code?

You can enter your promotional or discount code during checkout. Once successfully applied, the applicable discount will be reflected before you complete payment.

Can I use more than one discount code?

Promotional and discount-code conditions may differ between campaigns. Unless specifically stated otherwise, promotional codes may not be combined with other offers or discounts.

Why isn't my discount code working? 

Check that the code has been entered correctly and that your order meets the promotion's requirements. Certain brands, categories or products may be excluded from particular promotions. If you’re still having trouble, contact our team before completing checkout.

Why has the price of a product changed?
Product pricing may change due to promotions, supplier pricing or other commercial factors. The price displayed at the time an order is successfully placed is the price applicable to that order, subject to our Terms & Conditions.

Brands & Authenticity

Does Verbe sell genuine On, HOKA, WHOOP, Birkenstock, Adidas and other branded products?

Yes. Products sold through Verbe are genuine branded products. We take product authenticity seriously and do not sell replicas or counterfeit merchandise.

Why do some products have different delivery times?

Verbe carries products across a wide range of brands and categories, and fulfilment times can differ depending on the product and supplier.

Do branded products come with a warranty?

Warranty coverage varies depending on the brand and type of product. If you experience a potential manufacturing fault, contact us with your order number, photographs and details of the issue and our team will advise you on the relevant process.

Can Verbe help me choose between products? 

Absolutely. If you’re unsure about sizing, footwear, activewear, padel equipment, technology or another product, contact our team and we’ll do our best to help you choose the most suitable option.

Fragrances

Are the fragrances sold on Verbe authentic?

Yes. We only sell genuine fragrances and do not sell counterfeit or replica perfumes.

Why can fragrance returns be restricted?

For hygiene, safety and product-integrity reasons, fragrance return conditions may differ from those of clothing or footwear. Please review the Returns Policy before opening or using a fragrance product.

Can I return a fragrance if I don't like the scent?

Eligibility will depend on the condition of the product and the applicable Returns Policy. We recommend checking fragrance notes and product information carefully before purchasing, as opened or used fragrance products may not qualify for return.

How can I choose a fragrance without smelling it first?

Our product descriptions include fragrance notes and information to help you understand the scent profile. You can also contact our team if you would like help comparing fragrances before purchasing.

Why does my fragrance smell slightly different from one I've owned before?

A fragrance can sometimes appear slightly different because of reformulations, batch variations, storage conditions or how the fragrance develops on your skin. Packaging may also be updated by manufacturers over time.

Why does the packaging of my product look different from images I've seen online?

Brands periodically update packaging, labels and product presentation. As a result, genuine products may sometimes arrive in packaging that differs slightly from older photographs or previous versions.


Orders

I placed an order but haven't received my confirmation email. What should I do?

First check your spam or junk folder and confirm that the email address used at checkout is correct. If you still cannot locate your confirmation, contact info@verbe.co.za with your name and payment information so that we can assist.

Can I cancel my order?

Please contact us as soon as possible after ordering. If your order has not yet been processed or dispatched, we will do our best to assist. We cannot guarantee cancellations once fulfilment has begun.

Can I add another product to an order I've already placed?

Contact us as soon as possible. Depending on the status of your order, we may be able to assist, although an additional order may sometimes need to be placed and might take a little longer.

Does adding an item to my cart reserve it?
Adding an item to your cart does not necessarily reserve stock. Products remain subject to availability until checkout and payment have been successfully completed.
