While it is very uncommon, it has happened. Email us your order number so we can confirm the authenticity of your deck before sending out a replacement guide or card.
If you purchased your deck from another retailer, please reach out to them for assistance.
If your deck includes a QR code in place of a physical guide, you purchased a counterfeit.

Route Package Protection is a package protection solution that helps cover your order in the event that your order gets lost, stolen, or damaged while in transit while also protecting the planet. We know how frustrating it is to have something happen to your order, so we’ve partnered with Route to offer added assurance that you’re supported, no matter what. Peace of mind is yours at a low cost when you add Route Package Protection at checkout.
Plus, every time you add Route to your order, Route donates to support an agroforestry initiative that removes CO₂ from the air and promotes a flourishing ecosystem.
If your order value is $200 or more, we've covered the cost of Route package protection for you.
If your Route-protected order ends up lost, damaged, or stolen, Route’s expert support team helps ensure that your order gets replaced or refunded as preferred. Claims will be reviewed for approval within 1-2 business days from filing.
How Does Route Process Refunds or Reorders?
Refunds: When refunding an item, Route covers the subtotal, shipping, and taxes if the merchant has Automatic Issue Resolution enabled.
In both cases, the Route Premium cost will not be refunded.
Reorders: Route will reorder the items, depending on in-stock availability. Unavailable items will be refunded. Route will cover the cost of any reorders including shipping, taxes, and Route Shipping Protection.
If you experienced an issue with your order, please file a claim with Route’s team here.
If you purchased Route Package Protection and you believe your order was lost, damaged or stolen, you can file a claim for a replacement or refund.
You can file a shipping issue on Route’s app or via the web here. To file a claim, you will need your store order number OR Route ID number and the email address that was attached to the order.
Ensure you report an issue within the respective deadlines:
Damaged:
- Claims for damaged items require photos of the packaging and item(s) and must be filed no later than 30 calendar days from when it was marked delivered.
Stuck In Transit (Lost):
- For domestic orders, claims will be reviewed no earlier than 2 calendar days and no later than 30 calendar days from the last update. The maximum filing time is 365 days from the order date.
- For international orders, claims will be reviewed no earlier than 20 calendar days and no later than 30 calendar days from the last update. The maximum filing time is 365 days from the order date.

If your order did not include Route Package Protection, reach out to our team at hello@prismavisions.com to see how we can help.
If your shipment is lost:
Order issues for packages presumed to be lost by the carrier (where the status is not "delivered") must be filed no sooner than 7 days after the last tracking update for United States domestic shipments (20 days for international shipments) and within 30 days from the last checkpoint.
Estimated Delivery Date
- After 48 hours has passed from an estimated delivery date given from the carrier, and no delivery or update has been made, we will consider the order to be "lost" and assist with next steps.
Invalid address or delivery barriers
- Sometimes carriers cannot deliver the customer’s package due to an invalid address or other unexpected delivery barriers. At this point, the carrier might return the package to the sender/retailer. Additional shipping fees to attempt the delivery again will be required.
Packages labeled "return to sender"
- Typically, orders are sent back when a customer provides an invalid or undeliverable address or refuses a delivery. We do not offer refunds or replacements for this situation. The customer is responsible for entering their correct address at the time of placing the order and refunds will not be provided for orders that are returned due to an insufficient address.
- If the package was returned to sender due to a carrier error* an exception can be made.
*above timeframes for filing apply.
Order stuck in customs
- Customers are responsible for paying any necessary duties, taxes and/or brokerage fees related to their order. We are not able to quote these fees at checkout. We will not process refunds for packages that are returned/refused due to unpaid customs fees.
- Often a shipment will be held by customs until the customer can complete the payment of the required fees. The contact information submitted by the customer when the order was placed will be used by customs agents to contact the customer. If you are not notified about the customs fees due to incorrect contact information being entered with your order details, the package will be returned or destroyed and you will not be eligible for a refund for your order.
- If Route was purchased with your order (or your order's subtotal was over $200 USD), and there is an issue with your order that is covered by Route's insurance policy, they may replace something the customer has already paid customs on, under Route’s discretion, Route can approve and pay customs the second time.
Order marked as unfulfilled or unshipped
- If your order is marked as unfulfilled or unshipped, the order hasn’t been fulfilled (we could be low on inventory of the items, an item in the order could be a pre-order item that is not ready to ship, or their may be internal delays with the fulfillment center, etc.).
- If your order included Route, please note that coverage does not go into effect until a tracking number has been created for your order.
Order issue filed too soon
- If you are reporting an order issue the same day that the package was marked as delivered, we will require that you wait 5 days before notifying us again about the issue so that we may file a claim on your behalf. Carriers (FedEx, USPS, UPS, DHL, etc.) sometimes prematurely mark the package as delivered when it’s still in transit.
Please note, if it has been over 30 days since your tracking showed a "delivered" status, we are not able to offer you a replacement or refund.
Damaged Item Arrived
- Order Issues for damaged orders must be filed within 30 days of the delivery date.
Broken or damaged items
- If you received a damaged item please be sure to photograph the damaged item(s) and the package it came in and file a claim with Route or email us at hello@prismavisions.com
If the item is out of stock
- In the case of the item no longer being in stock, a replacement will not be possible and a refund for the item or order will be processed.
Delivered but Missing Package
- Order issues for packages marked "delivered" yet not received are considered stolen, and must be filed 5 days after “delivery date” but no longer than 30 days to ensure it was not mis-delivered or easily found around the premises.
*We require these wait-to-file periods for stolen and lost orders as packages are sometimes delayed in transit or prematurely marked as delivered.
Delivered to wrong address
- If the correct address was entered at checkout and the package was delivered to the wrong address, your order would be eligible for a reimbursement or replacement.
Most of the time a package will be scanned as delivered when it is accidentally dropped off at a nearby neighbor. Please check with your neighbors and any other areas on your property where it might have been delivered by mistake. If after one week, the package is still nowhere to be found, email us at hello@prismavisions.com and we will see what we can do.
Please note, if it has been over 30 days since your tracking showed a "delivered" status, we are not able to offer you a replacement or refund.
Sometimes carriers cannot deliver the customer’s package due to an invalid address or other unexpected delivery barriers. At this point, the carrier might return the package to us. If the package is returned to us because of an incorrect address, if duties were unpaid or because it was never claimed, we will need to charge you for shipping it a second time.
For international shipments:
Please check that the shipping address you’ve used is verifiable by our shipping carrier and that the phone number is correct so that customs can contact you if there are fees that need to be paid.
No, your order does not include customs, duties or brokerage fees. Orders returned or refused due to unpaid customs fees are not eligible for a refund.
