Galaxus: Online shop, community, magazine

The Galaxus online shop offers customers quality products by top brands at consistently low prices. The range currently spans the categories IT + Multimedia, Office, Home + Kitchen, Interior, Toys, DIY + Garden, Health + Beauty and Love + Play. Galaxus is more than an online shop. It’s also an active community and a journal. The editorial team at Galaxus is independent, tests products with a critical eye and is honest about the result – good or not. Whenever Galaxus customers have questions, they’re answered by the Community within a few hours.

Delivery and returns
Galaxus offers free delivery for all orders above 30 Euro. A shipping cost of 3 Euro is charged for orders under 30 Euro. A 100-day return policy applies to all orders.
Galaxus and the tortoise
Galaxus stands for our complete range and a whole new shopping experience – a department store universe that’s just a click away. So it’s no coincidence that the tortoise is our logo. In many ancient cultures, the animal is said to carry the whole world and even the universe on its back. It is also regarded as sturdy, reliable and clever. These are precisely the characteristics that describe Galaxus’ objective: To bring together a compact and competent universe of products in one place and to allow customers to enjoy a shopping experience that’s efficient and tailored to their needs.
