STRAIGHT TO THE POINT

How can we help you?

All your questions, by topic.

01

Personalising my gift

Photos, text, designs and help with the personaliser.

How do I personalise my gift?

You can personalise your gift with photos and text in our personaliser, which you can access before, during or after your purchase. You can also apply effects and try out the options available for each product. Think of that photo that always makes you both laugh, or a phrase only the two of you understand: that's where the magic begins. ✨

The options change depending on the product, because you don't personalise a mug the same way as a cushion or a calendar. With each gift you'll find the tools that go with it. Have a play with the possibilities and, if you need a hand shaping your idea, we're here.

Can I see my personalised gift before I pay?

Yes! Most of our products let you see a preview during the buying process, before you pay. That way you can get an idea of how your gift will look with the photo, text and design you've chosen. 😊

Use that moment to check the names, dates and the framing of the image at your leisure. Preview options depend on the product; if you have any doubts about what you're seeing, write to us or give us a ring and we'll help you check it.

How to personalise your gift
What quality does a photo need to be for a personalised gift?

The quality needed to print a photo depends on the product and the print size. Whenever you can, upload the original photo: images sent via WhatsApp or downloaded from the internet may have lost resolution and detail.

As a guide, an image larger than 1 MB is usually fine for printing on most products, although file size alone doesn't guarantee quality: resolution and print size matter too. If you're unsure about a particular photo, tell us which gift you'd like to use it on and we'll advise you.

Accepted image formats
What if I don't know how to personalise my gift?

Our personaliser is easy to use, but we know that choosing a photo, placing some text or getting the design you have in mind can sometimes feel like an uphill struggle. If you get stuck, give us a call or write to us: we'll be delighted to help. 😊

Tell us which product you want to personalise and which step you need help with. You don't need to know anything about design or have the perfect idea all worked out; we can guide you so you end up with a gift you're really happy with.

Contact the team
What image formats can I upload to the personaliser?

You can use JPG, PNG and GIF images to personalise your gift. If you have a photo saved on your phone or computer, check that it's in one of these formats before uploading it to the personaliser.

As well as the format, quality matters: whenever you can, use the original file. Images forwarded on WhatsApp or downloaded from the internet may have lost detail, and it shows when they're printed. If you're not sure whether your photo will work for the product you've chosen, ask us and we'll advise you. 📷

What quality your photo needs to be
Can I remove a gift from my basket?

Yes! If you've added a gift and decided you'd rather have another, you can remove it from your basket. You'll find an X next to each product: click the one next to the item you no longer want and it will be removed from your selection.

Before confirming your purchase, take a moment to check that all the products you want to give are there. And if you're still choosing, no worries: putting together a good surprise sometimes means changing your mind a couple of times. 😉

Can I ask for a custom design that isn't on the website?

Do you have an idea that isn't among our options? Tell us all about it. 😊 You can get in touch so we can look at the design you have in mind and check whether it can be done on the product you like.

Every gift has its own personalisation possibilities, so we'll look at your idea and advise you on how to make it happen. We'd love to hear it!

Shipping and delivery

Delivery costs, dates, time slots and pick-up points.

How much does it cost to send a gift?

The delivery cost depends on the destination and the service you choose. Receiving your gift in a specific time slot isn't the same as choosing economy delivery or a pick-up point, so you can pick the option that best suits your surprise.

In our delivery times and costs section you'll find the rates and the different options. Remember that delivery to pick-up points is free for orders of €35 or more in mainland Spain. 📦

See delivery times and costs
Can I choose the delivery date and time?

Yes, during checkout you can choose the date and one of the time slots available for the delivery address. For us, the when is just as important as the who: a birthday, a surprise breakfast, or that moment when you know the other person will be at home. 🎁

Depending on the destination, different days and time slots will be available. During checkout you'll be able to see the options and choose the one that best fits your idea. That way you'll know what's possible for that address before you confirm the order.

Check delivery times and rates
Do you deliver gifts on Saturdays and Sundays?

Yes! On Saturdays we deliver across Spain, and on Sundays in Madrid and the surrounding area. Because a birthday or a special date doesn't always fall between Monday and Friday, and we like being part of those weekend surprises too. 😊

The days and time slots available for your destination appear during the buying process. Enter the delivery address and check the options so you can plan your gift in good time; if you need help choosing, just ask us.

See weekend deliveries and rates
Do you deliver on public holidays?

On public holidays we only deliver in Madrid and the surrounding area. If you're planning a surprise for a special date, bear this in mind from the start so you can organise the order and pick a day when we can get it to its destination.

Local holidays count too: it's the customer's responsibility to find out about those in the delivery area and keep them in mind when choosing the date. A holiday there may be a working day in another city, so it's worth checking before you place your order.

How is my gift presented and sent?

Presentation is part of the surprise too. We prepare every gift with care so that receiving and opening it is a special moment, from the minute the box arrives until the person discovers what you've chosen for them. 🎁

In “How your gift arrives” you can see our boxes and different examples of presentation, and find out a little more about how we prepare orders. It's the best way to get an idea of what that special person is going to receive.

Find out how your gift arrives
Can I send my gift to a pick-up point?

During checkout, enter the destination postcode to see the delivery options. If the gift can be collected from a pick-up point, you'll be able to select that option and choose one of the available points. It's a handy alternative if you'd rather arrange to collect it than wait for the parcel at home. 📦

Delivery to pick-up points is also free for orders of €35 or more in mainland Spain. You can see the options and their conditions in our delivery times and costs section.

Check the delivery options
Do you gift-wrap?

We don't offer additional gift wrapping. That said, we take care over the presentation and prepare our products with love: we know that opening the box is part of what you want to give. 🎁

If you'd like to see how we present and send our products, pop over to “How your gift arrives”. There you'll find different examples of our boxes and how we prepare the surprises, so you can get an idea before you buy.

See how your gift arrives
When is delivery to a pick-up point free?

Yes! Delivery to pick-up points is free for orders of €35 or more in mainland Spain. A great option for collecting your gift whenever suits you best. 📦

If you prefer another delivery option, you can see the services and their rates in our delivery times and costs section.

See delivery times and costs
Do you deliver to the Canary Islands, the Balearic Islands, Ceuta and Melilla?

Yes, we also send gifts to the Canary Islands, the Balearic Islands, Ceuta and Melilla. Surprises travel that far too! 😊

The cost of these deliveries is different from deliveries within mainland Spain. Check the rates and delivery options so you can prepare your order with all the information.

Placing an order

How to buy, when to order and how to send a surprise.

How do I place an order with Regalo Original?

To place an order with Regalo Original, choose your products on the website, personalise them, fill in the delivery details and confirm your purchase. 99.9% of our orders are placed independently this way. Depending on the gift, the destination and availability, you can receive it in as little as 24 hours. 🎁

Would you rather we gave you a hand? You can also write or call us and we'll take your order ourselves. We'll help with whatever you need so that preparing the surprise is easy.

Contact us
How far in advance do I need to order my gift?

In general, ordering 24 hours before the delivery date is usually enough, although it depends on the product, the destination and availability. Our advice is to order with as much time to spare as you can: that way you'll prepare your surprise with more peace of mind. 😊

In campaigns like Valentine's Day we receive a huge number of orders and can reach the limit of our capacity. That's why we may not be able to fulfil yours from one day to the next. If you already know what you want to give and when, best not to leave it to the last minute!

Check delivery options and times
Can I send a gift to someone else?

Of course! The details of the person placing the order and those of the person receiving the gift can be different. You can send it to yourself to hand it over in person, or have it arrive directly with that special person. 💝

During checkout, enter the sender's details and the recipient's address in the relevant sections. That way we'll know who to deliver the surprise to.

The website isn't working properly, what can I do?

Try reloading the page and check that your internet connection is stable. It may also help to update your browser, try a different one or restart your device.

  • If the problem continues, try clearing your browser's cache and cookies. Bear in mind that you could lose the items in your basket or your session data.
  • If you still need help, tell us what's happening and let us know which device and browser you're using.
Contact the team
Will the price or the invoice be inside the parcel?

The surprise is safe! 🎁 Since our orders are gifts, we don't include any price information or invoices inside the package. The person who receives it can enjoy the gift without finding the amount you paid when they open the box.

Price and billing details are sent by email only. That way, the person placing the order keeps that information and the recipient is left with what matters: the gift and the affection behind it.

My order in progress

Order details, changes and delivery tracking.

Where can I find my order details?

We send you a first email with all the order details before you pay and a second message once you've confirmed it. In them you'll find the information to check what you've ordered and the delivery details. 📩

If you can't find them, have a look in your spam or junk folders. And if you need help locating your order, write to us or give us a call and we'll check it with you.

Contact us How to receive delivery tracking
Can I change the details or the design of my order?

You can change the personalisation of your order if the product hasn't been made yet, and the delivery address if the parcel hasn't been dispatched yet. Once the gift has been made or the parcel dispatched, respectively, we won't be able to make those changes.

Write to us or call us as soon as possible, giving your order number and what you need to change. Our process is automated and we have production shifts running 24 hours a day: if you write to us late in the afternoon, we may not see your message until the next day, by which time the gift may already have been made. Receiving your message doesn't automatically stop production.

Contact us
What happens if nobody is home to receive the gift?

If the courier arrives and finds nobody in, a new delivery can be arranged or the parcel can be collected from the courier's depot. The surprise will have to wait a little, but we can help you find the best option. 📦

Check the tracking information to coordinate with the courier. If you have any questions or need help, contact us and we'll look into your case.

Contact us
How do I get the tracking link for my order?

You'll automatically receive an email with the tracking link when we hand your order over to the courier. This normally happens the afternoon before delivery, so you'll be able to follow your gift's journey from that message. 🚚

From that link you can see how the delivery is progressing. If you haven't received the message yet, check your junk mail too; if you need help, we're here.

After it arrives

Problems, changes, returns and refunds.

What do I do if my gift arrives broken, damaged or with a mistake?

If your gift arrives broken, damaged or with a mistake, write to [email protected] with your order number and an explanation of what happened. We want to help you put it right, and we need those details to find your purchase and look into your case.

If possible, attach photos showing the problem and tell us which product is affected. That way our team can look into what happened with all the information to hand and help you more quickly.

[email protected]
Can I return or exchange a product?

Personalised products are made especially for you, with your photos, names or designs, and can't be returned under the right of withdrawal. If the product isn't personalised, you can request a return or ask about an exchange, as long as it isn't subject to another legal exception, such as products that expire or deteriorate quickly.

In a return under the right of withdrawal, the direct costs of sending the item back are borne by the consumer. Write to us with your order number so we can tell you how to process it, and check the terms and conditions of purchase for the deadlines and requirements.

If the product arrives damaged, has a defect or isn't what you ordered, it's different: your rights remain in place for personalised products too. Tell us what happened and we'll help you sort it out.

[email protected] Check the terms and conditions of purchase
How do I check the status of a refund?

Write to us with your order number and we'll tell you where the refund stands. We'll look into it with you so you know how it's going. 😊

Bear in mind that, even though we've already issued the refund, the bank may take between 2 and 7 working days to show the amount in your account.

Meet the Regalo Original team
Do you have a physical shop in Alcobendas, or can I collect my order?

At our premises in Alcobendas we're waiting to answer your questions and hand over your orders. It's not a shop in the usual sense, with shelves and a till for popping in to buy: it's the place where we make gifts a reality. 😊

Breakfast deliveries

Destinations, presentation, ingredients and delivery times.

Where do you deliver breakfasts?

We deliver our breakfasts all over Europe! 🥐 You can surprise someone close by, or brighten the morning of that person you wish you had a little closer.

When preparing your order, enter the destination to see the dates, delivery options and delivery costs available for that address. That way you can plan the surprise with all the details.

See breakfast deliveries
How does my breakfast arrive?

We prepare every breakfast with lots of love, taking care over both what's inside and how it's presented. We want the person who receives it to open the box and think: “Wow, how amazing!” 🥐🎁

In “How your gift arrives” you can see different examples of our boxes and presentations. Pop over and have a look to get an idea of the moment waiting for that special person.

How your gift arrives
Do you have gluten-free, lactose-free or nut-free breakfasts?

Yes, we have gluten-free, lactose-free and nut-free breakfast options. Check the ingredients and allergens of the breakfast you're interested in to see what it includes and whether it suits what you need. We want to help you choose with all the information. 😊

Check the information for the breakfast you're interested in and, if you have any allergy, intolerance or question about its ingredients, write to us before placing your order. Tell us your situation and we'll help you go through the options.

[email protected]
Can I change the contents of a breakfast?

Our breakfast packs have fixed contents, so their products can't be changed individually. Each pack brings together a specific selection: you can check what it includes to choose the one that best suits that person's tastes. 🥐

If you'd rather decide what goes in the surprise yourself, we have a build-your-own breakfast where you can choose whatever you want to include. It's a good option for putting together a combination to your liking and paying a little more attention to the little details you know they'll love.

See the available breakfasts
How are breakfast deliveries prepared and stored?

Yes! We prepare the products in our bakery the day before delivery and vacuum-pack them to keep them in good condition. Behind every breakfast there's a lot of preparation and a lot of love. 🥐

We have laboratory tests showing good preservation even a week later, under the storage conditions tested. Always follow the storage instructions for each product to enjoy it at its best.

What time do you deliver breakfasts?

You can choose from several time slots during checkout: from the crack of dawn to different times throughout the morning. ☀️

The available options depend on the destination. When you enter the address you'll see the time slots you can choose from and pick the one that best suits your surprise.

Check delivery times and costs
Do you also deliver breakfasts in the afternoon?

Yes! A delicious surprise doesn't have to stop at breakfast: we can also deliver it in the afternoon, as a teatime treat. A coffee, something tasty and an unexpected gift can brighten a morning just as much as the end of a day. ☕

During checkout you'll be able to see the time slots available for the delivery address and choose the moment that suits you best. Think about when that person will be able to enjoy it and prepare the surprise for that occasion.

Payments and invoices

Payment methods, problems paying and invoice requests.

What payment methods can I use?

I can't pay by card, what can I do?

Check that the card number, expiry date and security code have been entered correctly. Also check that the card is active, hasn't expired and allows online purchases.

If your bank asks you to confirm the payment from its app or with a code, complete that step to continue.

  • Check your connection and try again with an up-to-date browser or from another device.
  • If you're using a company network, its restrictions might be interfering with the payment.
  • You can also choose one of our other payment methods: transfer, Bizum or PayPal.

[email protected]
Can I pay cash on delivery?

We don't offer cash on delivery, so it isn't possible to pay for your order when you receive it. You can use a card, bank transfer, Bizum or PayPal and choose whichever you prefer during checkout.

If you're not sure how to complete the payment with any of these options, call or write to us. We'll explain how to go about it so you can prepare your gift in peace and not get stuck at that last step. 😊
