RMIT Store F.A.Q.

You have questions...we have answers

Orders

How do I change or cancel my order?

For RMIT Store merchandise and course equipment, email rmitstore@rmit.edu.au or call us 03 9925 9878 with your order number immediately. However, once the order has been sent, we are unable to make any changes and you will need to follow the return procedure below.

For RMIT Club cancellations, please contact your club directly via their email or contact form on their club page. All orders are the responsibility of the respective club.

What payment methods do you accept?

We accept VISA, Mastercard, UnionPay, American Express, Apple pay and Google Pay online.

In-store we accept VISA, Mastercard, Eftpos, Apple Pay and Google Pay. Please note, we do not accept cash in store.

How can I track my package?

Every online order is given a tracking ID number which you receive via email once we have shipped your item.

For domestic and international orders, you can visit the Australia Post website to track your order.

I placed an order but didn’t receive a confirmation.

Please check your junk and spam mail and confirm if payment has been processed by your financial institution. Please contact us for further assistance.

I placed an order for collection, when can I come and collect it?

Once your RMIT Store merchandise or course equipment online order is ready for collection you will receive an email notifying you of this. It is the buyer's responsibility to collect their goods and after 1 month your order will be cancelled and refunded.

RMIT Club's orders are the sole responsibility of your club. If your club has not contacted you about your order, please contact them via their email directly or via their contact form on their Club page.

I placed an order online and selected Standard Shipping, however I need this urgently, can I change my order to Express, or can I collect it in-store?

Please contact us immediately to discuss your options, as we can either offer you:

  • collection and refund of your postage costs if the order has not yet been sent.
  • express shipping if the order has not yet been sent. This requires an additional payment to upgrade to express shipping which will need to be paid prior to a refund for standard shipping being issued and your order being sent. The RMIT Store staff will direct you on how to make this payment upon notification.

Do you do partial delivery?

We will never send orders out until all item’s purchased are accounted for. This includes special / custom orders which may take 4-6 weeks. Therefore, if you purchase other items, such as a hoodie or tee, you will not receive your order until all items can be sent or collected, despite paying for Standard or Express shipping.

We suggest making separate orders in instances where you’d like certain items while waiting for your special / custom order to arrive.

Do I get a student discount?

We try to keep our prices as competitive as possible to suit all student budgets. If you’re after a good deal, stay tuned for our sales which we attempt to run monthly specials and promotions.

Why don’t you have PayPal or BNPL?

The RMIT Store is owned and operated through RMIT University. Therefore, we follow the financial process and system the University has in place; PayPal is not one of these services and RMIT does not offer BNPL payment.

How can I keep up to date with news and offers the RMIT Store offers?

Easy, during checkout make sure you check the box under your email address to accept our email marketing. You can also check us out on Instagram.
