How do I place order and how does registration work?
There are two options for you to register if you would like to order something from the FC-Moto online shop. You can register a new account first and come back later to order or you can create an account while you are ordering.
Click the “Account” button (in the top right corner) if you want to start by creating an account.
- Click “Login” at the bottom left and you will see the section “Registration”. Clicking that field will open the first registration page.
- Please fill out all relevant fields.
- All fields with an * must be filled out, otherwise the registration cannot be completed.
You can, of course, register at a later time if you prefer – when you place your first order.
- Click the shopping cart and then “Checkout”, then you will see
- Login for existing customers
- Order and new customer registration
Why do I have to register at all?
- We want to offer you the best possible service!
- We keep our customers informed about latest developments via email during the entire order process: you will receive an order confirmation and you will also be notified when your order is shipped.
- It goes without saying that we will treat your personal information with utmost respect and will not forward it to any third parties (please read our privacy policy).
The order process did not complete successfully – there was some problem with my login information?
- Did you change anything about your customer account lately – maybe your address?
- Please contact customer service in that case, we will be happy to check your account and get you logged in again.
I forgot or lost my password.
- Please click “Forgotten password”.
- You will then be forwarded to another page via a link, where you can create a new password.
How do I enter my address correctly?
- Please fill out each field with the requested information.
- A little pop-up with information on how to fill out the field correctly will appear if you skip anything by accident.
How can I see if a product is in stock and why are there products I cannot select?
- You can see at a glance, which products are available and which are not.
- Once you select a particular size or model, you will see if it is in stock (e.g. “ships in 2-3 days”).
- A crossed out size or model means that the item is out of stock. It can no longer be selected and you can’t click the shopping cart either. A crossed out item means that we will unfortunately not be stocking the product any more in future.
How do I find the right size for me?
- Sizes can differ from one manufacturer to the next, which is why we recommend using our size guides for orientation.
- Please note that we receive these size guides from the relevant manufacturer and should be regarded as a rough guide only.
- In the end, clothing will always have to be tried on to make sure it fits.
- We offer an exchange/returns service in case you do order something that doesn’t fit.
What is the phone number for customer service and at what times can I reach them?
- You can reach us by phone from Monday to Friday 9 am to 6 pm and on Saturdays between 10 am and 4 pm (CET). The number is +49 (0) 2405 / 49 500 50
To which email address should I send a written request?
- Please use our contact form to send us any written messages.
Can I contact a store person directly by phone?
- Our store personnel is dealing with walk-in customers all day long and are always quite busy. Therefore we can unfortunately not offers phone advice at our store.
- Our customer service team is, however, very knowledgeable and will be able to answer all your questions.
Can I reserve specific items?
- We can unfortunately not reserve items by phone or email.
- We do, however, offer our customers a “Pickup at the store” service: You can reserve up to 10 items at our store for you to come and look at or try out.
- This service is completely free and you will only pay at the store for those items you actually buy.
- There is no pressure to buy any of the reserved items if none of them suit.
- “Pickup at the store” is recommended particularly if you are unsure about which size to order, as you can try on various sizes to find the one that fits.
- We also recommend “Pickup at the store” if you are travelling far to get to us – just imagine you come all that way and then the item you want is not in stock!
How does “Pickup at the store” actually work?
- Log in with your customer account.
- Place up to 10 items into your shopping cart.
- Continue with the order process until you get to the shipping type selection: You can choose DHL, UPS and “Pickup at the store”.
- Select “Pickup at the store” and the payment type “Pickup at the store” will be automatically selected. You will not be charged and it will not cost anything.
- You will receive an email notification from us, once all your selected items are available at the store. Please wait for this notification before visiting thee store to avoid disappointment! Some of the items may not be available at the store and will have to be ordered from outlying warehouses or may have to be reordered from the manufacturer. We would therefore appreciate a few days of your patience.
- The products will be reserved for you for 14 days at the store, once you have received your email notification. The reservation will be automatically lifted, once the 14 days have passed.
- Please notify our customer service in good time if for some reason you won’t be able to visit the store within those 14 days, but are still interested in the items.
Which parcel service are you using for shipments?
- We use DHL and UPS as our shipping partners.
- DHL will hand over the parcel to the national mail service of the destination country, who will then be responsible for the final delivery.
- UPS will deliver to the front door in the destination country.
How high is the cash on delivery surcharge?
- The CoD surcharge is €7.90
- DHL will not charge the additional standard delivery fee of €2.00.
Can I get an express delivery?
- We unfortunately cannot offer express deliveries as a general rule.
Can I have a delivery sent to another address than my own?
- Yes, that can be done. This may, however, cause some difficulties if the payment option “credit card” is selected. Whether or not you will be able to enter a delivery address other than your own depends on the security criteria you have registered with your credit card provider.
Can I also get part deliveries?
- Yes, that can be done. To countries outside of Europe, however, we will only do part deliveries for order values of €100 or more.
- Part deliveries will not cost you extra.
What happens if a parcel gets lost while it is on its way to me?
- We will in that case place a search enquiry for you with the relevant carrier.
- Please note that it can take around 8 weeks for us to receive a result for that search enquiry.
- You can choose to have your money refunded or have the items shipped again, once we have confirmation that the parcel was lost.
Where can I view the status of my order?
- We will keep you up to date on the progress of your order via email.
- For more information about your order, please log in to your customer account.
When will I receive my delivery and when will my order be shipped?
- Your order will be made ready to ship as soon as we have received your payment and we have all items for your order in stock.
- We can also offer part deliveries if one or more items are delaying the dispatch ( see also Can I also get part deliveries?). We will notify you by email as soon as your parcel is shipped.
- The overall delivery time depends on the relevant destination country.
- Any items ordered with the payment options cash on delivery, PayPal or credit card will be shipped as soon as possible.
- Shipping time is generally 2-5 days (8-10 days during high season). We will most of the time be faster than that, but there are some factors that we have no influence over, e.g. delivery difficulties of the supplier or once your order is in the hands of the carrier.
How can I track my order?
- You will receive a shipping confirmation from us as soon as we have received your payment and the shipment was sent off.
- This email will contain a tracking code with which you can track your order (DHL: http://www.dhl.de/de.html; UPS: https://www.ups.com/content/de/de/index.jsx).
- Please note that it may take a few hours for your tracking code to be registered, as it will only just have been transmitted to the logistics provider when your shipping confirmation email was sent.
Where do I find the tracking number?
- You will find the tracking code in your shipping confirmation email.
- You can also call up your tracking number in your customer account, as soon as it is available.
What do I do if the parcel I receive is damaged?
- Please refuse the delivery and contact us right away of the issue.
- If you already accepted the delivery, you will have to notify the delivery service of the issue right away.
- You will have to report the damage in any case yourself first, before we can act on your behalf. Please send an email with details of the damage to Kontakt@fc-moto.de.
- With that information, we will be able to initiate an investigation request for you.
- We will notify you about how we will proceed in terms of compensation or the dispatch of new goods, once the investigation is completed.
What happens if I refuse delivery of the parcel?
- We will charge you 5% of the order total + shipping costs for any delivery you refuse to accept.
- Additional fees may be incurred by DHL (around €10-€15), which will also be charged to you.

Can I exchange products I bought at the online shop at the FC-Noto store?
- Unfortunately, such an exchange will not be possible, as our online sales and store sales are managed separately.
- You can, on the other hand, drop the returns parcel complete with the returns slip at the store in person to save shipping costs. Our colleagues at the store will forward the parcel for you.

- We have no influence over claims processing times of our manufacturers, which means that it may take some time until we receive a reply.
How long is the warranty period?
- The statutory warranty period is 2 years.
- Some manufacturers offer extended warranty beyond the legal requirements. Complaints are handled directly through us.
What can I do if I receive a damaged or wrong item?
- Please send a photograph of the item by email to kontakt@fc-moto.de.

- In case of an incorrect delivery, please also add a photograph of the barcode and the label on the item.
