89 answers across all topics
Getting started & accounts
Explore getting started & accounts →Where should I start?
Browse the Store for physical products or STL downloads. The account menu brings together your profile, orders, downloads, friends and preferences. Product pages explain the available options before you add an item to your basket.
How do I sign in or create an account?
Open My Account and follow the sign-in or registration options shown there. Use the email address associated with your orders so the site can connect your purchases and eligible features.
I have bought something. Why can I not see it in my account?
Check that you are signed in with the email address used for the purchase and that payment has completed. If it is still missing, contact us with your order number and purchase email. Do not send passwords or full card details.
Where can I change my details?
Use My Account for your account settings, saved addresses and preferences. Use Edit profile for your Club display name, biography and profile appearance.
What should I do if I cannot sign in?
Check the email address you entered and use the password recovery option on the sign-in screen. If you still need help, contact us using the email address linked to your account.
How do I change email preferences?
Open Preferences from your account menu to review the choices available to you. Keep your account contact details up to date so we can reach you about an order.
Shopping, favourites & payments
Explore shopping, favourites & payments →How do I choose a product option?
Select the available pair, size, design or other option on the product page before adding it to your basket. For configurable prints, choose each colour as well. Review your selection and quantity before checkout.
Does saving a favourite reserve the item?
No. Save to favourites helps you find a product again; it does not reserve stock or lock its price. Availability and the final price are checked when you shop.
Where are my saved favourites?
Use the heart icon or Favourites link to open your saved products. A saved item may become unavailable if it sells out.
Why has a price or available quantity changed?
Availability can change as other orders are placed. Configurable products may also have option or material price differences. Check the basket and checkout totals before paying.
How do I pay?
The online checkout uses Stripe. Choose from the payment methods offered during checkout and check the order summary before confirming payment.
What if payment appears to be processing?
Allow a short time for confirmation, then check My Orders and your email. If you are unsure whether a payment succeeded, contact us with the order details before trying to pay again.
How do payment plans work?
Apply for Forever Reserve at the top of Forever Loyal. Your application shows Pending until reviewed; once approved, the application panel disappears and Forever Reserve becomes available at checkout. Pay a minimum 10% deposit immediately, then at least 15% of the full total monthly, 3.5% weekly or 7% fortnightly. Choose larger payments if you prefer. Goods are dispatched or collected only after full payment. View the agreed dates and make payments in Payment Plans in your account. Existing agreed plans keep their recorded schedules.
Forever Reserve
Explore forever reserve →How much must I pay on a new reservation?
The minimum deposit is 10% of the full reservation total, including delivery, paid immediately. Following payments are at least 15% monthly, 3.5% weekly or 7% fortnightly. Weekly and fortnightly rates work out approximately equivalent to 15% per month. Minimum amounts are rounded up to the next penny and are based on the original full total, not the remaining balance. Every card payment must be at least 30p. Checkout shows the deposit and following payment amounts before you agree.
Can I pay more or make a smaller final payment?
Yes. You can choose a larger deposit or larger scheduled payments to finish sooner. The final payment is limited to what remains. If a final balance would be below 30p, it is added to the preceding scheduled payment. Orders that cannot be split into two payments of at least 30p should use Pay in full.
What would a £40 reservation look like?
The minimum deposit is £4, followed by six monthly payments of £6. Alternatively, pay £1.40 weekly (25 payments plus a final £1), or £2.80 fortnightly (12 payments plus a final £2.40). The full total includes delivery where applicable.
Does applying approve me straight away?
No. Apply from the top of Forever Loyal after reading and accepting the terms. The application remains Pending until reviewed by the team. An approved account starts with a £75 allowance for unpaid reservations, subject to the scheme terms. Your unpaid remainder must fit within your available allowance. You can choose a larger deposit to reduce that remainder.
Are payments automatic, and when will I receive my items?
Use Payment Plans in your account to make payments on the agreed dates. Choosing a schedule does not set up automatic recurring card charges. We only dispatch or release an item for collection once its reservation is paid in full; normal preparation and delivery times then apply.
What happens if I need to cancel or cannot make a payment?
Contact us before your next payment date where possible. Missing a date does not automatically add a fee or cancel your reservation. Cancellation and refund requests follow the Returns & Refunds policy and your consumer rights. Your deposit is part payment toward your order, not an automatic non-refundable fee.
Orders, delivery & collection
Explore orders, delivery & collection →Where do you deliver?
We currently deliver within the United Kingdom. Enter your delivery details at checkout to see the services available for your order.
Why do different baskets show different delivery options?
Delivery eligibility depends on the packed size and weight of your order. Checkout uses the available packaging and carrier limits to show suitable services, so a larger item may have different options from jewellery.
How much will delivery cost?
Checkout shows the delivery charge for the service you select before payment. Check that total rather than assuming the rate from an earlier order will apply.
Is free delivery available?
Where your basket qualifies for a free-delivery offer, checkout applies the applicable offer. Check the current Delivery information page and the final checkout summary for eligibility.
Can I collect my order?
Choose collection if it is offered at checkout. Please wait for confirmation that the order is ready and follow the collection arrangements provided before travelling.
Where can I follow my order?
Open My Orders and select the order to see its recorded status and any delivery information available. A made-to-order item may need preparation before it is dispatched.
Can I change an order or delivery address after paying?
Contact us as soon as possible with the order number and requested change. We will check what is still possible; an order already in production or dispatched may not be changeable.
3D-printed products & colour choices
Explore 3d-printed products & colour choices →Am I buying a printed item or a file?
A physical product listing is for the item described. An STL download listing is for digital files, not a finished print. Where both versions are linked, use the link to view the other listing and check which one you are buying.
How do the colour dropdowns work?
Each recipe part has its own colour choice. Open a dropdown to see colour names and visual reference dots, then choose the combination you want. Your current selection summarises the choices saved with your order.
Why is a colour missing or unavailable?
Choices depend on the product material and available filament stock. A colour may be unavailable if there is not enough unreserved filament for the parts and quantity selected. Availability is checked again before payment.
Are the colour dots and 3D viewer exact colour samples?
No. Both are visual guides. Your screen, lighting, filament finish and printing process can affect the appearance. Do not make your final purchase colour choice from the viewer alone. Review the listing photos and colour names, and contact us if an exact match matters.
Can I rotate the preview?
Where a 3D viewer is available, drag the model or use its rotation, tilt, zoom and reset controls. It appears below the product images and any product video.
Will my print need assembly?
Check the product page for the Assembly required (parts provided) notice. Read the description for details of what is supplied and any assembly information before ordering.
Why can I see lines or small differences on a print?
Layer lines and small variations can be part of the 3D-printing process. The material and finish are described in the listing. Check the product photographs and description to decide whether the finish suits your project.
Can printed decorations hold food, heat or candles?
Use each product only as described in its listing. Do not assume a decorative print is suitable for food, hot liquids, candles or flames. Ask us before buying if you need it for a particular use.
Can you design or print something bespoke?
Contact us with the intended use, approximate dimensions, quantities and reference images. We will review what is possible and discuss the project before you commit.
STL downloads & licences
Explore stl downloads & licences →What is an STL download?
It is a digital design for 3D printing. You need a suitable printer, material and printing software, or access to a printing service. The purchase does not include a physical object.
Where do I get my purchased files?
Sign in and open My downloads. Once payment is confirmed, the download button provides the files and licence for the purchase.
Why is my download not ready?
Payment may still be awaiting confirmation. Refresh My downloads shortly and check the order status. If you have paid but the download remains unavailable, contact us with your order number rather than buying it again.
Which licence should I choose?
Read the personal and commercial licence terms linked on the design page before purchase. Choose the licence covering your intended use; a commercial licence does not automatically permit sharing or reselling the digital files.
Will the files work on every printer?
Check the listing for dimensions, material, supports, colour versions and printer requirements. Multicolour versions may need additional equipment. Final print quality depends on your printer, settings and material.
Can I buy the finished item instead?
Where a design is linked to a physical product, follow the product link on the STL listing. Availability and pricing for the printed item are shown on its own page.
Profiles, privacy & friends
Explore profiles, privacy & friends →How do I customise my profile?
Open Edit profile to change the information and appearance options available to you. You can use unlocked profile rewards and choose a profile companion from your collection.
Why can other members not see my profile?
Check your profile visibility setting in Edit profile. Member profiles are restricted to eligible signed-in Club members, and a private profile is not displayed as a public member profile.
Will making my profile visible reveal my orders or balance?
Your member profile is separate from private account pages. Orders and private reward balance history are not shown as part of your public member profile. Only add biography details you are happy for eligible members to read.
Where can I find my friends?
Choose My Friends from the account menu. That page shows your friendship controls and includes a search for members by name.
Why can I not find someone in the member search?
Check the name you searched for. Member visibility and Club eligibility affect who is available to find; a private profile may not appear.
How do I use a border or other profile reward?
Open your profile editor and select a reward you have unlocked. Locked items show the relevant progress or availability information. Save your changes and view your profile to check the result.
Community chat & clubs
Explore community chat & clubs →Who can use the SnS Club?
Club participation is for eligible signed-in customers. Your first qualifying fully paid order unlocks participation. Launch arrangements and any account restrictions can affect access; the community page explains your current access status.
I have an account. Why is chat still locked?
An account alone does not necessarily qualify for Club participation. Check that your qualifying order is fully paid and uses the same email address. Contact us if access still looks wrong.
Do posts wait for approval?
Chat posts and replies publish without a routine approval queue. Members can report problems, and administrators or moderators can take action against abusive behaviour.
What are the different clubs for?
The Club lounge is the main gathering place. Topic clubs cover crystals, jewellery, printing, laser engraving, pets and the Mythical Library. Choose the space that best fits what you want to share.
Can I create my own club?
Eligible members can use the club creation controls to create a public or private space. A public club is discoverable within the eligible community; private clubs use membership and invitations.
How do invitations to private clubs work?
The club owner can invite eligible members using the available invitation controls. Accept an invitation to join. Private club content is limited by the club membership rules.
Can I share pictures and products?
Use the attachment and product-sharing tools offered in chat. Share images you have permission to use, and avoid posting private information. Ordinary member posts cannot contain external website links; use the product picker to share shop items.
What should I do about an abusive post?
Open the post menu and choose Report post. Explain the concern so the moderation team can review it. Avoid escalating the argument; abusive accounts may lose community access.
Why are some words shown with stars?
Chat applies a swear filter that masks the middle of recognised words while keeping their first and last letters. This does not replace reporting abusive or inappropriate content.
Where have the older posts gone?
The feed shows 25 posts at a time. Use Load more at the bottom to show the next set when older posts are available.
What is the Mythical Library?
It is the site’s collection of mythical stories and related reading. Open the library to explore what is available, and use the Mythical Book Club to discuss it with other eligible members.
Profile pets & collectibles
Explore profile pets & collectibles →What is a profile pet?
It is a collectible digital companion for your Forever SnS profile. It is different from the real-pet profiles and tags found under My Pets.
How do I unlock profile pets?
Your reward pages show the pets you own and the requirements for locked companions. Some are earned through collection challenges, while certain companions are exclusive to pre-launch members.
How do I name or select my companion?
Open Edit profile and find Profile Pets. Open an owned companion’s card, enter its name and choose Name & select. For an equipped companion, use Save name to update its name.
Can I switch to a different pet?
Yes. Choose another companion you own in Profile Pets. The equipped status identifies the currently selected companion; switching does not remove the others from your collection.
What are borders and Pixels?
They are collectible profile rewards. Your Forever Loyal page shows owned items and progress towards upcoming rewards; the profile editor contains the appearance options available to you.
Real pets & pet tags
Explore real pets & pet tags →What is My Pets for?
My Pets manages profiles for your real pets and their purchased tags. It is separate from your collectible profile companion.
When will my pet tag appear?
Pet Tag purchases appear in My Pets after payment. A tag that has not been linked yet shows a setup option so you can create or link the pet profile.
Do I have to complete the pet profile immediately?
No. Profile setup is optional and you can return to it later. My Pets shows whether a basic profile still needs completing.
Can I update what someone sees when they scan a tag?
Use the pet’s Edit profile page to review the information and visibility choices. Keep any finder-facing details up to date and only share information you want a finder to see.
Where can I find the tag’s QR code?
For a QR-enabled tag, open the pet profile or use View QR code in My Pets. Plain tags do not provide the same QR option.
Can I temporarily disable a pet profile?
Review the pet profile controls in My Pets. The list shows whether the pet tag is active or temporarily disabled, so you can check its current status.
Forever Loyal, rewards & referrals
Explore forever loyal, rewards & referrals →What is Forever Loyal?
It is your account area for rank progress, challenges, collectible rewards, Forever Crystal Coins and referrals. Open it to see your current progress and available rewards.
What is the difference between FR and FCC?
Forever Rank (FR) measures non-spendable progress and prestige. Forever Crystal Coins (FCC) are promotional store credit. They are separate balances: 1 FCC equals 1 penny of store credit, not cash.
How do I see what to unlock next?
Your Forever Loyal page shows rank progress, challenge requirements and upcoming rewards. Check each challenge’s requirements and recorded progress rather than assuming every site action earns the same reward.
How do referrals work?
Share your personal referral link from Forever Loyal. Qualifying referred purchases can earn FCC after full payment is confirmed. Your referral panel shows qualified customers, your current reward rate and earned FCC.
How much can I earn from referrals?
The earned referral rate increases through qualifying-customer milestones up to 10%. Moderators receive an additional two percentage points, taking the maximum to 12%. The current rate shown in your account is the rate to check.
Is referral reward based on delivery too?
No. Referral rewards apply to eligible product spend after discounts, excluding delivery. Other exclusions can apply, and a purchase must qualify before a reward is recorded.
What benefits do moderators receive?
Appointed moderators receive an extra 2% shopping discount and two additional percentage points on their referral reward rate while they hold that role. Moderators help keep the community welcoming and review reported content.
Jewellery & crystals
Explore jewellery & crystals →Will a natural stone look exactly like another one?
Natural stones vary in colour, markings, shape and formation. Read the description and look at the photographs for the individual product or option you are choosing.
Can I choose a particular pair of earrings?
Where individually photographed pairs are offered as options, select the available pair you want before adding it to your basket. Your chosen option is shown with the order.
Where can I check materials and dimensions?
Use the product description and details for the item. Do not assume all jewellery uses the same metal or that every stone has the same dimensions.
How should I look after my purchase?
Follow the care information supplied for the specific item. Different stones, metals and finishes need different care. If you are unsure about water, cleaning products or storage, ask us before using a cleaning method.
Personalisation & bespoke work
Explore personalisation & bespoke work →Can you personalise an item?
Where personalisation is offered, use the options and fields on the product page. Check names, dates, spelling and your selected design carefully before adding the item to your basket.
Can I send my own design or request something new?
Contact us with your idea, artwork, dimensions, quantity and intended use. We will check the material and production requirements before confirming what is possible.
Can I correct a personalisation mistake after ordering?
Contact us promptly with the order number and exact correction. We will check whether production has started before confirming if the change can be made.
How long will a bespoke item take?
Timing depends on the design, material and work involved. Check the listing or the timing agreed for your project rather than assuming the delivery estimate includes design and production time.
Returns, problems & getting help
Explore returns, problems & getting help →How do I ask for a return?
Read Returns & Refunds for the current process and conditions, then open the order in My Orders to use any available return controls or contact us with your order number. Check the instructions before sending anything back.
What if something arrives damaged or incorrect?
Contact us with your order number, a description of the problem and clear photographs of the item and packaging where possible. We will review it and explain the next step.
What about personalised products or digital downloads?
These have specific conditions. Read the product information, download licence and applicable Returns & Refunds terms before purchase. Contact us if there is a problem with what you received.
How can I report a website problem?
Tell us the page, what you were trying to do, what happened and the device or browser you used. A screenshot can help, but hide private payment information and passwords.
How do I contact a real person?
Use the Contact page. Include your order number if relevant and enough detail for us to investigate. You will be speaking to the family behind Forever SnS.
