My Account & Store Credit
How do I use Store Credit?
Log in to your account and proceed to checkout. Your available Store Credit can be selected during checkout. You can view your balance from My Account.
How does Store Credit work?
Store Credit may be added to your account as part of a promotion or, with your agreement, instead of a refund. You must be logged in to view and use Store Credit. Store Credit does not expire, is non-transferable, cannot be redeemed for cash, cannot be combined across multiple accounts and is forfeited if your account is closed.
Payments & Checkout
What currency are your prices in?
All prices on VetShopMax are in US dollars (USD).
Why was my card declined?
Some card providers block international transactions unless they have been approved in advance. If your card is declined, contact your card provider and ask them to make sure transactions with VetShopMax are not being blocked.
Why did my card charge a foreign transaction fee?
Some card providers may charge a foreign transaction fee because VetShopMax is based outside the United States. These fees are charged by your card provider, not VetShopMax. Contact your card provider if you're unsure whether a fee applies.
How does Apple Pay or Google Pay work at checkout?
When you select Apple Pay or Google Pay at checkout, only your saved payment card details are used to process your payment. Your name, email address, shipping address and shipping method will remain as entered or selected during checkout on our website.
Please ensure your details are correct before placing your order.
How do I use a coupon code?
Enter your valid coupon code in the discount code box at checkout and select Apply Discount. If the code is accepted, the discount will appear in your Order Summary.
My coupon code isn't working. What should I do?
Check that the code has been entered correctly, is still valid and that your order meets the offer conditions. If it still doesn't work, contact Customer Care at info@vetshopmax.com.

Products & Ordering
Do you sell pet food?
No, we don't currently sell pet food but we are looking at options. If you'd like us to let you know when we can sell pet food, please contact us via email info@vetshopmax.com.
What do the different pack sizes mean?
Pack size refers to the number of chews, tablets or pipettes included. For example, a 3 pack contains 3 individual doses and a 6 pack contains 6 individual doses. Always check the product page for the exact contents and dosing information.
Are your products genuine?
Yes. All products sold by VetShopMax are genuine and sourced from reputable manufacturers and authorised suppliers in Australia. As our products are sourced from Australia, packaging may differ from what you typically see in US stores. This may include metric measurements or different packaging designs, but all instructions for use and safety information are provided in English.
Why is the packaging different?
Products may be sourced from outside the USA, so packaging can differ from what you see in US stores. This may include metric measurements or different packaging designs, but all instructions for use and safety information are provided in English.
Why are your prices lower than many US retailers?
VetShopMax sources products internationally, which allows us to take advantage of different pricing between markets and pass those savings on to our customers. All products we sell are genuine and sourced from reputable manufacturers and authorised suppliers.
Can I change or cancel my order?
Please contact us as soon as possible if you need to change or cancel an order. We dispatch orders quickly, so we may not be able to make changes once your order has been processed or shipped. Call 1-866-560-6346 or email info@vetshopmax.com.
Do I need a prescription to order?
No. The products we sell are available over the counter in Australia and do not require a prescription to order.
Do you price match?
Yes. If you find the same products advertised for less by an eligible USA or Canadian online pet pharmacy, contact our Customer Care team before placing your order and we'll do our best to match the advertised total price. Price matching is based on the total basket price, including taxes, shipping and other applicable charges. The competitor must be a USA or Canadian online retailer of genuine animal health products selling in-date products in normal retail quantities. Price matching excludes clearance sales, coupon or promotional offers, cashback offers, member discounts, marketplace websites including eBay, auction websites and group buying sites. We may decline a price match if it would result in selling below cost or an unreasonable financial loss.
How do I know how to use a product?
Always follow the instructions provided on the product label or by the manufacturer. Product information, including ingredients and dosage instructions, may change, so please refer to the packaging supplied with your product for the most current information.
How should I store my products?
Always follow the storage instructions provided on the product packaging or by the manufacturer.

Can I return a Clearance item?

What if my order arrives damaged or incorrect?
Please contact our Customer Care team if your order arrives damaged or you receive an incorrect product.

Where do you ship?

Do you ship to Canada?
We’re currently unable to ship orders to Canadian addresses due to ongoing restrictions and regulations from Canadian authorities, which mean we can't guarantee that deliveries will arrive safely or without unexpected fees. We’re actively working on a solution and hope to resume shipping to Canada in the future. We currently ship to Australia, the United States, Hong Kong, Malaysia and Singapore.
What courier do you ship with?
We ship via international couriers such as DHL, Australia Post and Asendia, with final delivery usually completed by USPS.

What should I do if I entered the wrong delivery address?
Contact Customer Service as soon as possible. If your order hasn't yet been handed to the courier, we may be able to update the address, but we can't guarantee changes will be possible. Customers are responsible for providing a complete and correct delivery address.
I haven't received my order confirmation or tracking email. What should I do?
Check the spam or junk folder of the email address used when placing your order. If you still can't find your order confirmation or tracking email, contact Customer Service and we can check your order details.
