Ground Up Customer FAQ
Placing an Order
Can I get a discount on my first order?
This isn't my first order. Is there still a way to get a discount?
Check out our Promotions page for all current discounts. If you're a big Ground Up fan, consider joining our Butterbassador ambassador program for special discounts and free nut butters.
Can I add a gift note to my order?
You can! After you add an item to your cart, there is an empty text box that says “leave a note with your order”. In that box, you can add your gift note. And if you forget, no worries! Just send an email to customercare@grounduppdx.com with your order number and the note you’d like added.
This order is a gift. Will you leave out price information?
We don't include invoices or receipts with orders, so you're all set.
Can I cancel or modify my order?
As long as your package hasn’t been shipped out yet, we can cancel or modify the order. Just send an email to customercare@grounduppdx.com with your order number and the changes you’d like us to make.
Can I change my shipping address?
Yes, as long as the package has not been shipped out yet, we can change it. Email customercare@grounduppdx.com with your order number and the correct address.
Can I change my billing address?
If you entered the wrong billing address, as long as the payment was processed, it’s not an issue.
What is your policy around fraud?
Orders flagged with a high fraud risk in our Shopify storefront will not be fulfilled. If your order is flagged, we will cancel it, send you an email notification, and work with you to place a new order if you'd like.
I'm having trouble checking out. Help!
We're sorry! Please email us at customercare@grounduppdx.com or call us at 503-477-8892 and we'd be happy to help.
Shipping
Do you ship internationally?
We currently ship within the U.S. only. We hope to offer international shipping in the future!
How long will my order take to ship?
Your order should ship within 3-5 business days. Our team operates on a 4-day work week and is closed on Fridays, so orders will not ship on that day. Find more information on our Shipping and Returns page.
Can I place my order and delay shipping?
Unfortunately, we are unable to do this. If you have a special request, email customercare@grounduppdx.com and we will do our best to help.
Order Issues
Can I return my order?
All sales are final and we cannot accept returns or exchanges. If you're unhappy, please email customercare@grounduppdx.com and we'll do what we can to help.
My jars arrived broken! What do I do?
We're so sorry! Email customercare@grounduppdx.com with your order number and a photo and we'll take care of you.
I received the wrong item/my order is missing an item! What do I do?
We're sorry about that! Email customercare@grounduppdx.com with your order number and we'll get the correct products shipped out to you.
Subscriptions: Flavor of the Month Club
Do you offer a monthly nut butter subscription?
Yes! Our Flavor of the Month Club is a monthly subscription where you get first access to our seasonal flavors before they're released to the public! Every month, you'll get 2 jars of nut butter delivered straight to your door: one seasonal flavor (always a surprise!) and one flavor from our classic lineup (of your choosing).
Can I purchase the Flavor of the Month Club subscription as a gift?
Can I change or cancel my subscription?
If you have a Monthly Subscription, yes. You can cancel or pause at any time by logging into your subscription portal. You can also change your classic flavor or add items to your order. If you have a Prepaid Subscription, we are unable to make changes.
Is shipping included?
Shipping is included in prepaid subscriptions. For the monthly subscription, shipping is an additional $8 per month.
What if I have an allergy? Will you accommodate special requests?
- All limited-edition flavors are dairy-free and gluten-free, but we cannot accommodate individual allergen requests beyond that.
When will my order ship?
All Flavor of the Month orders ship on the 5th of the month, before we release the limited-edition flavor to the public. Your card is charged on the 1st, and new subscribers must join by the 3rd to be included that month.
Other
I have a question that is not listed. Who should I contact?
When can I expect a response to my email?
Our customer care team is available by email or phone during business hours, 9 am - 5 pm PST from Monday through Thursday. We do our best to get back to you as soon as possible, but certainly within 1-2 business days.
What is the best way to support your mission?
Buying our products is truly the best way to support! The more jars that we sell, the more hours we are able to provide for our team, and ultimately the more women we are able to employ. If you're looking for a way to make an ongoing contribution, consider joining our Flavor of the Month Club! Thank you for supporting our mission of providing job skills to women overcoming adversity.
