For most people in the UAE, the hesitation about ordering adult products is not the product — it is two questions. Will anyone know what is in the box? And will this show up on a statement? Cash on delivery answers both. Here is exactly how it works.

What the courier does at the door and how the window runs is covered in more detail in the delivery walkthrough

Why cash on delivery matters here

Paying on arrival means the purchase never touches a bank or card statement — the privacy worry we hear most. It also means you are not paying for something sight-unseen, which is one more reason cash on delivery is a popular choice for orders here.

Delivery times and payment

  • Across the UAE — Dubai, Abu Dhabi, Sharjah, Ajman and the northern emirates — delivery usually takes one to five days.
  • The minimum order is AED 150, with free delivery.
  • You hand cash to the courier when the parcel arrives — no card details at checkout.

What the parcel looks like

Discretion starts at the box. No branding, no product photo, no description of the contents anywhere on the outside. If a neighbour or housemate signs for it, nothing on the parcel says what is inside.

  • Plain, unbranded outer box or mailer.
  • No product name or intimate wording on the label or invoice.
  • Discreet inner wrapping around the product.
  • No store name or product category visible from outside.

What to check when it arrives

  1. 1 Confirm the parcel is addressed to you and was not opened in transit.
  2. 2 Check the outer packaging is intact before you hand over cash.
  3. 3 Open it in private and confirm the contents match your order.
  4. 4 Keep the packaging until you are sure you are keeping it — returns are easier with it.

Cash versus card

Card is convenient, but it leaves a line on a statement that anyone with access to that account can read. Cash on delivery avoids that entirely, and it is the option most customers here pick for intimate purchases. The only trade-off is having the right amount ready when the courier knocks.

Returns and hygiene

Because these are personal items, our returns policy is hygiene-first: an opened intimate product may not be returnable. Contact us on WhatsApp about anything damaged, incorrect or still sealed, and we will look at your case individually — which is why it pays to check sizing and material before you break the seal.

Good first orders

Trying cash on delivery for the first time? A smaller order is a low-risk way to see the packaging and the process before you commit to anything larger.

Frequently asked questions

Do I pay anything online to place a COD order?
No. You place the order and pay the courier in cash when the parcel arrives.
Can someone else collect the parcel?
Yes. The packaging is completely unbranded, so nothing on the box indicates what is inside.
How long does delivery take?
Usually one to five days across the UAE, including Dubai, Abu Dhabi, Sharjah and Ajman, depending on the emirate.
What if I am not home when delivery is attempted?
The courier will normally rearrange. You only pay once the parcel is actually in your hands.

The short version

  • Cash on delivery means the purchase never touches a card or bank statement — the privacy worry we hear most.
  • You pay after the parcel is in your hands, not before, so you are not paying sight-unseen.
  • The outer box carries no branding, no product photo and no description of the contents.
  • Because these are personal items, returns are handled case by case and an opened intimate product may not be returnable.
