Young Adult Subscriptions

All readers age 14+ will enjoy our Young Adult Crate. In fact, most customers who purchase our Young Adult Crates are between 20 and 30.

Magical Subscriptions

We curate this crate to be appropriate for people as young as eight, but you're never too old for magic!

For customers who purchase our MAIN PRODUCTS, Subscription Crates and Classic Books, LitJoy offers a 7-day period in which customers of that main product can add extra product to their order for no additional shipping! These products are called Add-Ons.

Add-Ons are available each month from the 4th to the 10th. Add-On weeks are specific to the main product of that month. Only customers of that month's main product can access that month's Add-Ons.

For example, a customer who purchases a February Young Adult Crate will have access to the February Add-Ons from February 4th-10th.

All reward points earned and coupon codes can be found by clicking "Rewards History" on the Rewards Page. You must be logged into your account to view them. Note, once reward points have been exchanged for a coupon code they can no longer be tallied with your other reward points. Your unused coupon codes will never expire and can be used toward any future purchase.

No, only one coupon code can be applied per order.

Add a product to your cart and go to your cart page. On the cart page click "Redeem Points". Select to exchange your points for a coupon code. Note that you must have enough reward points to qualify for the corresponding coupon code amount. A pop-up window will appear with your new coupon code.

You can choose to use the coupon code now or later. It never expires and can only be used once. The coupon is saved on your account page under "Rewards History" where you can find it anytime.

Coupons cannot be applied to any order that has already been processed. The coupon is saved on your account page under "Rewards History" where you can find it anytime and apply it to a future order.

Not every LitJoy item qualifies to receive reviews. If you purchase an item that does not qualify for reviews, you will not be sent a review email.

LitJoy does not resend review emails.

If it is a product that you have purchased in the past, including monthly subscriptions, a review email will not be prompted.

We cannot combine all information from two account into one account.

If you accidentally created and checked out with a second account, please contact help@litjoycrate.com with both emails from both accounts and indicate which account was an accident.

We can transfer the points from your purchase and apply it to your normal account. We will then delete the accidental account.

Once reward points have been exchanged for a coupon code they can not be put back into points, even if you have not completed the checkout process. Your unused coupon codes will not expire and can be used toward any future purchase. Coupon codes are saved for you in the "Rewards History" section of your LitJoy account page.

Please note, coupon codes never apply towards shipping cost. Some coupon codes are only eligible for certain products.

LitJoy does not offer returns and refunds on orders. 

In the rare circumstance where we offer a refund or return, the payment processing fees will not be refunded and any discount code applied is then forfeited. Returns can not be issued on shipped products.
