Return Policy

Tennis Express believes in providing our customers with the best selection of tennis products and innovative game improvement gear. If the products are not to your liking, please take comfort in knowing you can return or exchange unused products within 30 days of the delivery date.

Used or worn product is ineligible for a Refund. However, Tennis Express may issue a partial store credit for product returned in a used or worn condition. Credit is at the discretion of Tennis Express based on the amount of wear and use on the product. Store credits expire after 90 days.

How to Return

Submit a return request by visiting our Return Portal.

1. Log in with your order number and email.
2. If your order has more than one item, select the items that you want to return.
3. Select the item condition and reason for return. Optionally add any comments.
4. Save and continue to return options.

Once your return request is approved, you will receive an email containing either a prepaid return label or a QR code, along with instructions for returning your item. Once we receive the returned product, we will inspect and process the return. If the return meets our policy requirements, a refund will be issued to your original method of payment.

To qualify for a FREE prepaid FedEx Ground return label:

  • Your order must be over $50 (before tax and any shipping fees).
  • After your return, the value of what you keep must still be over $50 (before tax and any shipping fees).*
  • Limit 1 free return label per order.
  • Valid only for the continental United States.

*Example: Order 1234567 is $75 before tax and any shipping fees. If a $30 item is returned, the remaining order total becomes $45, which is below $50; therefore, the order does not qualify for free return shipping.

If your order does not qualify for free return shipping, you may still use our return portal. A $6.95 return shipping fee will be deducted from your refund. Otherwise, you are responsible for returning the item using your preferred carrier at your own expense. Please retain your tracking information for your records.

Please note:

  • If you use one of our prepaid labels, you may drop the shipment off at the authorized FedEx or USPS Service Station, depending on the carrier listed on your return label.
  • Refunds will be processed within 3-5 business days from the day we receive the return.
  • Any original shipping fees are non-refundable.
  • Any store credit issued will expire within 90 days.
