Shipping

Shipping Rates & Fees

  • Standard Delivery: IG Sports typically uses third-party couriers for nationwide delivery.
  • Calculated at Checkout: Shipping costs are not fixed for all items; they are calculated at the checkout stage based on your delivery address and the total weight/volume of the order.
  • Free Shipping: Many South African sports retailers offer free shipping on orders over a certain threshold (often R1,000+), but you should verify the “Special Offers” section on their site for current promotions.

2. Delivery Timelines

  • Processing Time: Orders are generally processed within 1–2 business days after payment confirmation.
  • Main Centers: Delivery to major hubs (Johannesburg, Cape Town, Durban, Pretoria, etc.) typically takes 2–4 business days.
  • Regional/Outlying Areas: Delivery to smaller towns or rural areas can take 5–7 business days.
  • Business Hours: Deliveries are made during standard business hours (Monday to Friday, 08:00 – 17:00). No deliveries are made on weekends or public holidays.

3. Shipping Methods

  • Door-to-Door Courier: Standard delivery is via courier to a physical street address.
  • No P.O. Boxes: Like most local couriers, they cannot deliver to P.O. Boxes or PostNet Suites; a physical address where someone can sign for the parcel is required.
  • Click & Collect: Depending on stock location, collection from their physical premises in Durban (indicated by their 031 area code) may be an option at checkout.

4. Tracking Your Order

  • Once your order is dispatched, you will receive an email containing a tracking number and a link to the courier’s tracking portal.

5. Important Considerations

  • Stock Availability: In the event that an item is out of stock after an order is placed, IG Sports will contact you to offer a replacement, a revised lead time, or a full refund.
  • Damaged Goods: Upon delivery, ensure the package is intact. If the parcel is visibly damaged, you should note this on the waybill before signing or contact their support immediately at info@igsports.co.za.
  • Large Equipment: For bulky items (like goalposts, heavy gym equipment, or astro-turf), specialized shipping rates and longer lead times may apply.
