3. Conclusion of contract

You may select products from Arket's range, in particular clothing and homeware, and collect them in a so-called shopping basket by clicking on the "add to basket" button. By completing the order by clicking on the button "Jetzt kaufen" respectively “jetzt zahlen” when you are using PayPal as a payment method, you submit a binding offer to purchase the goods in the shopping basket. Before sending the order, you can change and view it at any time.

Arket will then send you an automatic confirmation of receipt by e-mail, in which your order will be listed again and which you can print out by clicking on the "Print" function. The automatic acknowledgement of receipt merely documents that your order has been received by Arket and does not constitute acceptance of the offer. The contract is not concluded until Arket delivers the goods or has submitted the declaration of acceptance, which is sent by a separate e-mail (shipping confirmation). The text of the contract will not be stored by Arket and is after conclusion of the contract no more accessible for the customer on the Arket website.

The contract is concluded in English or German.

If for any reason we are unable to fulfill your order, we will let you know at the earliest opportunity. If we have already received payment for such order, we will attempt to refund the applicable amount using the same method used to make the payment.
