Can I change or cancel my order once it's been placed?
Order preparation begins promptly after you place your order, so changes or cancellations—including address modifications—cannot be guaranteed. To explore the possibilities, please contact us at care@goodeeworld.com as soon as possible.

How do I use the promo code I received when I subscribed to your newsletter?
The promo code you received can be used on your first order only. It cannot be combined with other offers, promotions, or already marked-down merchandise. Please note that the code has no cash value and cannot be applied to previous purchases or gift cards.
If you have further questions or need assistance, please contact us at care@goodeeworld.com.
Why can't I apply my one-time 10% discount code?
If your one-time 10% discount code isn't working at checkout, it might be due to one of the following reasons:
Not your first order: The one-time discount is only valid for first-time purchases.
Sale items: The code doesn't apply to items already on sale.
Another discount applied: Only one discount code can be used per order, so the 10% code won't work if you've already used another code.
If none of these apply, feel free to contact us for assistance at care@goodeeworld.com.

Impact
What materials are used in your products?
While the products we select are made from a variety of materials, we prioritize sourcing products made from natural materials, recycled materials, or with other sustainable characteristics. We continuously ensure that our materials are sourced responsibly to minimize harmful environmental and social impact. Read more about our materials here.
What measures do you take to reduce packaging waste?
As part of our sustainability efforts, we actively engage in reusing packaging whenever feasible, whether from our maker partners or from previous shipments. When this option isn't available, we turn to our own thoughtfully sourced packaging solutions, carefully chosen to minimize our environmental footprint. To learn about the specifics of our packaging materials, read more here.
How do you minimize your carbon footprint?
We minimize our carbon footprint by using several energy-efficient practices in our operations and in our day-to-day activities. We continuously strive to optimize our supply chain to reduce transportation emissions, we prioritize ocean shipments over air shipments whenever possible, we offset the carbon emissions from every customer shipment, and we partner with carbon offset programs every year to offset the remainder of our unavoidable emissions. Our team continuously sets goals as it relates to these areas and our impact manager ensures accountability and monitors progress. To learn more about our carbon offsetting efforts you can read this article.
Do you offer carbon-offset shipping?
Yes, all of our customer orders are shipped with carbon-neutral shipping. By partnering with logistics companies that offset their emissions, we ensure that our shipping processes are as environmentally friendly as possible.
How do you ensure the ethical sourcing of your products?
Before we work with any maker, we have them complete a comprehensive assessment questionnaire to thoroughly evaluate their business practices. We work closely with every one of them to ensure that all materials are ethically sourced, that fair labor practices are adhered to, and that their ethics align with ours. This includes verifying that raw materials are obtained in a manner that respects both the environment and the rights of workers, that the maker follows all regulations as it relates to fair wages, safe working conditions, no child or forced labor, and evaluating what supplemental initiatives these makers take to empower and uplift their workers.
Do you support any social causes or initiatives?
Yes, we support various social causes and initiatives. We are officially signed onto lobbying for the implementation of the 21st Century Business act.
What makes your products different from conventional home decor items?
The products we select are crafted with sustainability and ethics in mind. Unlike conventional home decor items, we prioritize working with makers that champion eco-friendly materials, ethical labor practices, and social impact, on top of designing quality products intended to last a lifetime.
Why are some of your products so expensive?
Our products reflect a commitment to sustainability, ethical sourcing, and high-quality craftsmanship.
Here's why some items may come at a higher price:
- Sustainable Materials: We prioritize eco-friendly materials that are gentler on the planet. While these materials may be more expensive than conventional options, their lower environmental impact aligns with our commitment to sustainability.
- Fair Wages: We partner with makers that ensure all workers receive fair wages and work in safe conditions. This ethical practice might increase costs, but it supports the livelihoods and well-being of the artisans who create our products.
- Artisanal Craftsmanship: Many of our products are handcrafted by skilled artisans. The time, effort, and expertise they invest in crafting these unique items contribute to their value and distinctiveness.
- Global Access: We carefully curate unique products from talented artisans around the world, making them available in one convenient marketplace for our North American clients. This global reach not only involves additional costs for duties, shipping, and logistics but also offers the luxury of discovering and owning exceptional pieces from diverse cultures and traditions without the need to travel. By bringing these treasures to your doorstep, we provide you with access to a world of craftsmanship and creativity, all in one place.
- Quality and Longevity: Our high-quality products are designed to last, reducing the need for frequent replacements. This long-term investment not only saves you money over time but also helps minimize waste.
How can I be sure that your company is truly committed to sustainability?
Our commitment to sustainability is reflected in our rigorous partner assessment process, transparent supply chain, and ongoing efforts to improve our environmental and social impact. We publish a yearly impact report to keep our customers informed about our progress. You can read the full report here.
How does Goodee commit to justice, equity, diversity, and inclusion?
Goodee's Commitment to Justice, Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion (JEDI)
Goodee exists to build a better world through meaningful commerce — a mission that is deeply aligned with the principles of justice, equity, diversity, and inclusion (JEDI). We believe that to serve our community, operate ethically, and contribute to a more regenerative economy, these principles must guide how we work, who we partner with, and how we show up in the world.
Founded with a commitment to social impact and conscious design, Goodee recognizes that traditional systems of commerce have too often excluded, exploited, or undervalued marginalized voices — particularly BIPOC, Indigenous, and historically underserved communities. Our work aims to challenge and reimagine those systems.
Justice at Goodee means ensuring that dignity, fair treatment, and opportunity are built into every layer of our operations — from the makers in our marketplace to the people on our team. We seek transparency and fairness across our supply chain, and we advocate for equitable access to the global market for artisans, designers, and social enterprises.
Equity means more than access — it means acknowledging systemic barriers and actively working to remove them. We are committed to policies and practices that promote equity in hiring, compensation, leadership, and supplier relationships. We aim to reflect a range of experiences, perspectives, and identities across our team and curated platform.
Diversity is a strength we celebrate. Our partners represent a wide spectrum of cultures, regions, and lived experiences. We seek out and uplift creators whose work reflects the richness of the global community — including women-led brands, Indigenous makers, and BIPOC-owned businesses.
Inclusion is at the heart of how we build relationships — within our team, with our customers, and through our storytelling. We strive to create a culture of belonging where all individuals feel respected, represented, and heard. We also work to ensure that our digital and physical platforms are accessible, welcoming, and responsive to a variety of needs.
We value and sustain relationships with communities and organizations that share our vision for an inclusive economy. Through our partnerships and collaborations — including those with refugee makers, Indigenous makers, and 2SLGBTQIA+* creators — we aim to amplify voices that have too often been excluded.
We apply these principles across our operations, our customer experience, and our broader community partnerships — because inclusion must be embedded in how we work, how we serve, and how we show up in the world.
As a B Corp and a mission-driven company, we are committed to ongoing learning, self-reflection, and accountability. We regularly review our practices and policies to ensure they align with our values and contribute to the collective movement toward justice and inclusion.
Goodee is not just a marketplace — it is a platform for change. And we are proud to continue building that platform with care, intention, and community.
