Assisted Purchase completion times vary due to several factors. If this is your first Assisted Purchase with Shipito, you will need to verify your ID and method of payment before we can process your request. The ID and payment verification process can take up to 2 weeks to complete, so plan ahead. Assisted Purchase requests around busy shopping times such as Black Friday and Cyber Monday may take longer due to higher demand. Additionally, not all merchants send items the same day it is purchased nor by express shipping. Planning ahead provides the greatest chance that your item will arrive in time for a special event or holiday!
First Time Customer ID Verification
You don't like fraud and neither do we, so first time Assisted Purchase requests require identify and payment verification method before we can get started. The verification process is simple:
Select Assisted Purchase and follow the prompts
Provide 2 types of requested ID's and documents
Passport
Identity Card
Drivers License
Verify your method of payment
Credit Card(Preferred)
BitPay
Wire Transfer
Once you've followed these steps our security team will perform a few checks to confirm that you are. . . well,... you! The verification progress can usually be done within a few days, but may take up to 2 weeks during busier times of the year. Once your account has been approved for Assisted Purchase, you don't need to go through the ID verification process again. Plan ahead if you would like Shipito to purchase an item for a sale or holiday!
If you are unable to add a verified credit card we will require additional documentation such as bank statements and receipts to prove ownership of the payment method.
Tell us what you want and we'll shop for you!
