Frequently Asked Questions
General
Pushkart.ph is an online grocery service, developed by young Filipino millenials, that aims to ensure convenient, and satisfaction-guaranteed delivery of groceries right at your doorstep.
We’ve got all your grocery needs covered - canned goods, snacks, beverages, or fresh selections. Got a product type that we don’t offer? Let us know!
Just like you, sometimes things get in the way and we have no time and energy for a quick run to the grocery. And so we thought, what if someone else can buy these things for me, right? A few clicks online and I’m all set.
So we created Pushkart.ph to help you out! To give you back some of those previous hours, and avoid the typical 3 hour chore of braving the traffic and carrying heavy bags for your grocery shopping.
We are partnered with Fisher Supermarket, to provide the best quality seafood, meat, and other necessities.
Supporting other green, organic and local businesses is important to us. We aim to inspire and encourage the community to adopt a healthier and sustainable lifestyle through home-cooked food and more active activities. We are passionate about home-made quality food and we wish to share the joys of our cooking experiences with you.
With the refer friends or “refer a friend” program, users can get PHP 50.00 for every new user referred. The referring user will share his/her referral code to the new user, wherein the new user will receive PHP 50.00 in his MyKredits immediately upon registering using the said referral code. The referring user will then receive PHP 50.00 in his MyKredits once the new user successfully performs his/her first order through Pushkart.ph.
The MyKredits credited can be used for purchases in Pushkart.ph, and are not transferrable or convertible to cash.

Billings and Payment
We believe that online shopping shouldn’t be expensive, which is why we do our best to keep our pricing close to that of our partner stores.
To maintain the quality of our service, we charge a fixed service fee, called a “Grocer’s fee”. This might appear as “Shipping fee” in your receipts and confirmations. Grocer’s fee is a convenience fee that we charge for the services provided by our specially screened and trained Grocers in selecting items purchased, and delivering this to your selected address. This lets us helps the families of our grocers as well!
The applicable Grocer’s Fee will apply for the ff. order subtotals:
- 8 KM or less = PHP 120 Grocer`s fee
- Plus PHP 10 Grocer`s fee for every 1 KM
- Multiply Grocer`s fee by 2 every PHP 5000
Absolutely not. Although much of our industry engages in "upcharging" via hidden fees, we strive to be fully transparent. Our price list is front and center on our homepage, and shortly after you receive your delivery, we will send you an itemized receipt so you know exactly what you were charged. If you ever have any questions on billing, please e-mail us at [email protected] and we'll take care of you.
At this point, we only accept payment via all cards from Visa and Mastercard - credit, debit, and prepaid cards through PayMaya, and over-the-counter via DragonPay.
Ordered goods are brought to the buyer’s place and customer will then receive an e-receipt called “order invoice” with our system generated order #. A VAT registered Invoice will be issued upon customer’s request.
However, If you don’t have a Visa or Mastercard credit card, you could still purchase from us once you get your virtual Visa card from the *PayMaya App.
*PayMaya Philippines Inc. is the first prepaid online payment app that enables the unbanked and the uncarded to pay online without a credit card; PayMaya is the digital financial unit of PLDT and Smart Communications, Inc.
You will receive a Pushkart.ph Order Invoice via the email address you used to register.
Discounts for Senior Citizens or Persons with disabilities are not applicable for any on-line transaction.
Currently we do not support the collection of membership points or other savings from stores. Be sure to keep an eye on email and our social media accounts for updates on how we’re expanding to improve this functionality.

Hey! It’s all about luck, so we cannot promise. Also, it depends whether you have been a very good customer. Kidding aside, what we can always promise is a genuine smile.
We get it, sometimes we all enjoy life too much and forget about some things. But if you must know ahead of time that you will be missing our delivery, kindly contact us 4 hours before the confirmed delivery time via e-mail at [email protected] so we can reschedule your delivery as soon as possible.
But if you forget about the delivery, the grocer will leave a notification with the information regarding your groceries and what to do next. And remember that we will have to charge a cancellation/re-delivery fee.
Please refrain from doing so! :) We have a strict "No Tipping" policy at Pushkart.ph. The act of tipping (or even thinking about how much to tip or whether you tipped enough) is a subtle form of friction that we want to remove from your customer experience! We compensate our Grocers well and have instructed them not to accept any tips. If you have positive feedback for them, please feel free to e-mail us at [email protected] and we will make sure to pass it on to your Grocer.
