Most orders are shipped with UPS. We also use FedEx, and Canada Post may be used for certain destinations or packages. We select the carrier based on the destination, service availability and the most suitable delivery option for the order.

How much does shipping cost?

Most eligible orders use flat-rate shipping. Your final shipping charge and currency are clearly displayed in the cart or at checkout before payment.

When will my order be shipped?

In-stock orders are usually dispatched within one business day. Orders placed on weekends or British Columbia statutory holidays are normally processed on the next business day.

How long does delivery take?

Please allow up to seven business days within Canada and up to 14 business days outside Canada after dispatch. Remote destinations, customs processing, severe weather and carrier delays may add time. Your tracking page provides the latest carrier estimate.

Checkout, account access, invoices and order communication.

Which payment methods do you accept?

All currently available payment methods are displayed securely at checkout. Options can vary by country, currency and device.

Is online checkout secure?

PlantMate uses an encrypted connection, and payments are handled through the payment providers offered at checkout. Please review our Privacy Policy for details about how personal information is handled.

Do I need an account to place an order?

No. You can check out as a guest. Creating an account is optional, but it makes it easier to review previous orders, access eligible downloads and find tracking information in one place.

Can I get a pro forma invoice?

Customers with an account can open My Account → Orders to view available order documents. Guest customers, or anyone who needs a pro forma invoice, can email plantmateinfo@gmail.com with their name and purchasing details.

Why have I not received an order or account email?

Check your spam or junk folder and confirm that the email address entered at checkout is correct. If the message is still missing, contact us with your name and order number, if available.

Can I change or cancel my order?

Choosing a system, finding the right instructions and keeping electronics protected.

Which PlantMate watering system should I choose?

PlantMate G1 is designed for soil-moisture-controlled watering of one indoor potted plant. PlantMate G2 supports two independent sensor-controlled watering zones, Timer Mode and a local web dashboard. Review the product pages, or tell us about your plants and setup for personal guidance.

Where can I find setup and troubleshooting instructions?

Visit the User Guides page for setup, calibration, reset and troubleshooting information. Match the model number on your product to the guide before changing settings.

Where can I find downloadable files?

Visit Downloads for available files. Purchased digital products can also appear under My Account → Downloads. A product labelled as a file download does not include a physical item unless its product page says otherwise.

What should I check before requesting troubleshooting help?

Confirm the model number, follow the matching guide, check that the reservoir has water, keep the pump submerged as instructed, remove tubing kinks and keep controllers and electrical connections dry. If the problem continues, send us the model, settings and a short description of what happens.

Can PlantMate controllers get wet?

Keep controllers, power connections and other electronic components dry unless the product instructions explicitly state otherwise. Always follow the placement and safety guidance for your model.

Can I buy replacement parts and project components?

Yes. The PlantMate shop includes pumps, sensors, tubing, watering rings, fittings and DIY components. Check each product description for dimensions and compatibility, or ask us before ordering if you are unsure.
