If your tracking shows “Delivered” but you cannot locate your package:
If the package is still missing, contact us here promptly. We will initiate a USPS search request on your behalf. USPS investigations typically take up to one week.
If USPS confirms the package was lost, misdelivered, or damaged in transit, we will gladly issue a replacement and file a carrier claim.
PLEASE NOTE: Once a package is marked as “Delivered,” ShopZoo and USPS are not responsible for theft. We strongly encourage secure delivery arrangements.
If you’re not completely satisfied with your purchase—whether you changed your mind or prefer a different color—you’re welcome to return or exchange it.
To begin a return or exchange, please contact us here with your order number, the item(s) you’d like to return or exchange, and the reason for your request. We’ll follow up with detailed instructions to complete the process.
We provide Size Guides for all apparel items, but if you need a different size or would prefer another style, we’re happy to offer complimentary exchanges. To start an exchange, please contact us here.
You can view our full Returns & Exchanges Policy here.
We want to make it right. Please contact us here with your order number and a description of the issue, and we’ll guide you through the next steps. Photos of the item (and, in some cases, the packaging) may be required to help us resolve the matter quickly and, if needed, support a carrier investigation.
We carefully pack and verify every order before shipment. If you believe an item is missing or incorrect, please notify us here within 48 hours of delivery confirmation so we can assist you promptly.
If a packing error occurred during fulfillment, we’ll work quickly to make it right.
Yes! To inquire about a bulk order, please contact us here with the item(s) you’re interested in and the quantity you’d like to purchase. Our team will follow up with next steps.

Gift cards cannot be redeemed or purchased at ShopZoo. If you do not live locally and would like to redeem a gift card for merchandise, please contact us here and we will forward your inquiry to our on-grounds Zoostore so they may assist you with a mail order.
Yes! ShopZoo uses PCI level 1 compliance for credit card processing. This means we have adhered to the highest standards of server compliance and secure payment processing. Industry-standard Secure Socket Layer (SSL) encryption technology encodes your personal information, including credit card number, name, and address, as it travels over the internet so that all transactions are secure. We, nor anyone else, has access to your credit information after your order has been placed.
At this time, we’re only able to accept one payment method per order. Your payment is processed in a single transaction and can’t exceed the total authorized amount for the order.
If you’re running into any issues at checkout, contact us here — we’re hear to help!
If you notice 2 charges for your order, please be assured that you were "authorized" twice, but not charged twice. The original authorization will disappear from your card very soon. When the checkout process is complete, an estimated tax is calculated, and your credit card is only authorized for a brief period of time. After the final tax is calculated, the payment is captured, and your card is charged for the final amount.
In most cases, yes! However, please note that while multiple discount codes can be applied to the same order, they cannot be applied to the same item. Each item in your cart can only be subject to one discount code. Our system will automatically apply the discount that offers you the best deal.
The only exception is “But X, Get Y” discount codes, which cannot be combined with other discounts. Please refer to each discount’s posted disclaimers for full terms and conditions.
Membership discounts are currently available for in-store purchases only at our on-grounds retail locations, as outlined on the Membership Wild Perks disclaimer page.
For online shoppers, we offer Free Shipping on orders over $60, which often provides comparable — or greater — savings.
We also encourage you to sign up for our e-newsletter to receive weekly updates on special offers and new arrivals. You’ll find the sign-up form at the bottom of our website.
If you spotted an item in one of our stores that isn’t available online, we may be able to help. Please contact us here with a detailed description of the item, and in many cases we can arrange a special order for you.
Gift cards are valid for on-grounds purchases at the San Diego Zoo and Safari Park retail locations. At this time, gift cards cannot be used for purchases on ShopZoo.com.
If you’re unable to visit in person, please contact us here and our on-grounds retail team can assist you with placing a mail order so you can use your gift card.
We offer a Shopper’s Pass, which allows you to enter the Zoo or the Safari Park and shop. Visit any ticket booth for details.
At the Zoo, purchase a 1-Day Pass at the regular price and shop for 30 minutes. Once shopping, if you desire more time, you can extend your pass up to 60 minutes total.

At the Safari Park, purchase a 1-Day Pass at the regular price and shop for 45 minutes. Return before your time is up and your 1-Day Pass purchase price will be refunded (within 3-4 business days). Please note that there is a parking fee at the Safari Park.
