Questions? We've Got Answers.

Everything you need to know about ordering custom branded merchandise, our process, timelines, and our mission to give back.

Orders & Timelines

What is the minimum order quantity?

Our minimum order quantity depends on the package:

  • Relationship Builder Package: 25 units
  • Brand Ambassador Package: 50 units
  • Enterprise/Community Partner Package: 100+ units (custom pricing available)

For smaller quantities or one-off orders, please contact us at info@cayascorner.com and we’ll do our best to accommodate your needs.

How long does it take to complete a custom order?

Standard turnaround times are:

  • Relationship Builder Package: 7–10 business days from order approval
  • Brand Ambassador Package: 5–7 business days (priority production)
  • Enterprise Package: Custom timeline based on project scope

Please note: These timelines begin after you approve your digital proof. The design consultation and proof approval process typically takes 2–3 business days.

Need it faster? We offer rush production for an additional fee. Contact us to discuss expedited options.

What counts as "order approval"? When does my production timeline start?

Your production timeline begins once you:

  1. Review and approve your digital proof (design mockup)
  2. Confirm your final order details (quantity, shipping address, etc.)
  3. Complete payment

We never begin production without your explicit approval of the design.

Customization & Design

Can you match our brand colors and incorporate our logo?

 Absolutely! This is what we specialize in. We can:

  • Match your exact brand colors (provide Pantone, HEX, or RGB codes if you have them)
  • Incorporate your logo through engraving, printing, or embossing (depending on the product)
  • Add custom text, quotes, or messages
  • Create designs that align with your brand identity

Just provide your logo files and brand guidelines, and we’ll make sure everything is on-brand.

What file formats do you need for our logo?

We prefer:

  • Vector files: .AI, .EPS, or .SVG (these give the cleanest results)
  • High-resolution images: PNG files with transparent backgrounds (at least 300 DPI)

Don’t have these? No problem. Send us what you have (even a JPG or PDF), and our design team can often work with it or help you create a production-ready version.

How does the design process work for custom orders?

Here’s our step-by-step process:

Step 1: Consultation
We discuss your vision, needs, timeline, and budget. This can happen via email, phone, or video call.

Step 2: Design & Proof Creation
Our team creates a digital mockup/proof showing exactly what your final product will look like. This typically takes 2–3 business days.

Step 3: Your Approval
We send you the proof for review. You can request changes, tweaks, or adjustments at this stage — no limit on revisions until you’re 100% happy.

Step 4: Production Begins
Once you approve the proof, we begin production. Your order ships according to your package timeline (5–10 business days depending on package level).

Step 5: Delivery
Your custom branded merchandise arrives ready to wow your clients!

Can I see a physical sample before placing a large order?

For Enterprise and Community Partner packages (100+ units), we can provide a physical sample for an additional fee. The sample cost will be credited toward your final order if you proceed.

For smaller orders, we provide highly detailed digital proofs that show exactly what your product will look like.

Pricing & Payments

Do you offer bulk discounts for larger orders?

Yes! Pricing becomes more favorable as order quantities increase:

  • 25–49 units: Standard pricing
  • 50–99 units: Tier 2 pricing (Brand Ambassador package)
  • 100+ units: Custom enterprise pricing with volume discounts

Contact us at info@cayascorner.com with your desired quantity and product type for a custom quote.

What forms of payment do you accept?

We accept:

  • All major credit cards (Visa, Mastercard, American Express, Discover)
  • Debit cards
  • Bank transfers/ACH (for orders over $500)
  • Business checks (with approved credit terms)

For Enterprise packages, we can discuss payment terms and invoicing options.

Do you require a deposit?

Yes. We require a 50% deposit to begin production, with the balance due before shipping. For established clients with recurring orders, we can discuss alternative payment arrangements.

Are there any hidden fees?

No hidden fees, ever. Your quote will include:

  • Product cost (per unit)
  • Customization/setup fees (if applicable)
  • Shipping costs
  • Any applicable taxes

What you see in the quote is what you pay. If any changes arise during the process that would affect pricing, we’ll notify you immediately for approval before proceeding.

Returns & Policies

Can I return or exchange custom products if I'm not satisfied?

Because all our products are made to order and customized specifically for you, custom orders are final sale and cannot be returned or exchanged except in the following cases:

Manufacturing defect
Damage during shipping
Error on our part (wrong design, incorrect personalization, etc.)

Why we have an approval process:
To ensure your complete satisfaction, we provide detailed digital proofs before production begins. You can request unlimited revisions during the approval phase. Once you approve the proof and production starts, the order becomes final.

If you receive defective or incorrect items:
Contact us immediately at cornercayas@gmail.com within 7 days of delivery. We will replace the items at no cost or issue a full refund.

What about non-custom items? Can those be returned?

Yes. Standard (non-customized) products can be returned within 30 days of delivery if:

  • Items are unused and in original condition
  • Original packaging is intact
  • You have proof of purchase

See our full Returns & Refunds Policy for details.

What if there's an error in my order?

If we made a mistake — wrong design, incorrect engraving, quality issue — we will:

  1. Replace your entire order at no charge, OR
  2. Issue a full refund including shipping costs

Your satisfaction is non-negotiable. If we messed up, we’ll make it right immediately.

Product Quality

What materials do you use, and are your products durable?

We use premium, high-quality materials for all our products:

  • Bracelets: Semi-precious stones, durable elastic or cord, quality metal accents
  • Keychains: Stainless steel, durable zinc alloy, quality engraving
  • Bottle Openers: Food-grade stainless steel, rust-resistant materials
  • Other Products: Quality materials selected for durability and longevity

All items are built to last and withstand daily use. We stand behind the quality of everything we produce.

Will the engraving or printing fade over time?

Our engraving and printing methods are designed for longevity:

  • Laser engraving: Permanent and will not fade
  • Printing: UV-resistant, water-resistant inks that hold up to regular use

With normal use, your branded items should look great for years.

Giving Back & Our Mission

How does the "giving back" portion work?

A portion of every order supports underprivileged communities through vetted organizations focused on:

  • Education and youth empowerment
  • Nutrition and essential resources
  • Family support programs
  • Care for vulnerable children

Carissa personally vets every partner organization to ensure contributions reach those who need them most.

Can you tell me exactly where my contribution goes?

Absolutely. We believe in full transparency. If you’d like specific details about which organizations receive support from your order, just ask. Carissa is happy to share information about our community partners, their programs, and the impact being made.

For Enterprise/Community Partner clients, we can also provide impact reporting showing how your partnership has contributed to community programs.

Can our company be recognized for the contribution?

Yes! Enterprise and Community Partner clients can be featured in:

  • Our community impact updates
  • Social media recognition (with your permission)
  • Co-branded impact stories you can share with your own clients

This allows you to show your clients and team that your branded merchandise program also supports meaningful causes.

Is Caya's Corner a nonprofit?

No, we are a for-profit social enterprise. This means we operate as a business, but giving back is built into our business model — not an afterthought. A portion of every sale goes toward community support, and transparency about our impact is core to who we are.

Shipping & Delivery

Do you ship internationally?

Yes! We ship to the United States, Philippines, and many international destinations. Shipping costs and delivery times vary by location. Contact us for an international shipping quote.
