1. Order
How does the ordering process work?
You can choose whether to register at knuspr.de or shop as a guest for your first order (this is only possible for the first order). As soon as you place an item in the cart, a window will appear asking for your delivery address to check whether it is within our delivery area. You can also close this window without entering an address and continue shopping. In the navigation bar, you can select different categories and browse through various submenus to your desired product. You can also enter the desired product in the search bar to go directly to it. Once you select a product, it appears on the right in your shopping cart. Using the plus and minus signs, you can adjust the quantity. By clicking the green “To cart” button, you will go to the order overview. At the bottom of the screen, the “Proceed to checkout” button turns from grey to green as soon as your order reaches the minimum order value. By clicking this button, the checkout process begins. First, enter your address (if not already done). Then enter your name and phone number, which we need so your Knuspr courier can contact you if necessary. Then choose whether you prefer to pay online or upon delivery. More on payment is explained below. You can decide whether you’d like to give your Knuspr courier a tip and select your preferred 1-hour delivery window. You may also give the tip in person at your door. Finally, select your payment method. If you chose online payment, options include credit card (Mastercard, Visa, AMEX), instant transfer (Klarna), Apple Pay, and Google Pay. By clicking the “Order with obligation to pay” button, you complete the purchase contract.
Is it true that my order will be delivered directly to my apartment door?
Yes, our Knuspr couriers deliver to your apartment door. This service is included by default. You can note in the courier comments if you prefer contactless delivery.
Can I add items to an already completed order?
Yes, up to five hours before your order is prepared. Simply log into your account and add the desired items to your cart as if placing a new order. Then, in the order overview, click on “Add to existing order” and complete the process. The confirmation email you received also contains a deadline for adding items.
How can I cancel my order?
Only our customer service is responsible for cancellations. If you wish to cancel your order, please call customer service at +49 89 88 99 75 00 or contact us via the webshop chat. Alternatively, we can leave your order with a neighbor or at your doorstep with your permission.
Items or even a whole bag are missing.
If items or bags are missing and you no longer need them, you can report them directly via the app or website. Go to “My Account” and select the relevant order. Then click “Report item” to file your complaint. You can choose to receive credits or not (see section 6 “How do credits work?”). Reporting is possible up to 72 hours after delivery.
If essential items are missing, do not report them online. Instead, call +49 89 88 99 75 00 (Mon–Sat, 06:00–22:30), use the chat, or email kunden@knuspr.de.
Can I change my delivery time?
Yes. In the app or on the website, go to “My Account” → “View order details” → “Adjust order” → and select a new available delivery window.
Why am I suddenly paying more?
This may be due to weighed items. See Section 2 “How are my weighed products charged?”
Want to provide or change delivery instructions for the courier?
You can adjust your note for the courier via “My Account” → “Order details” → “Edit note.”

Munich, Frankfurt: Minimum Order Value & Free Delivery

2. Payment
Can I pay directly upon delivery?
Yes. You can pay online or upon delivery using an NFC-enabled debit/EC/credit card (Mastercard or Visa). Online options include credit card (Mastercard, Visa), American Express (AMEX), instant transfer (Klarna), purchase on invoice (Klarna), Apple Pay, PayPal, and Google Pay.
Do I have to pay more when paying online by card?
No. However, for weighed goods (e.g. certain fruits, vegetables, meat), you may initially be charged a slightly higher amount based on estimated weights. The actual weight (and price) is confirmed post-delivery. If unclear, contact customer service.
How are my weighed products charged?
Prices for some products depend on weight. Since the final weight is only known at delivery, you only pay for what is delivered.
– For online payment (credit card, Google/Apple Pay): 30% of the expected value is reserved. The actual amount is charged after delivery.
– For Klarna: 30% overcharge is debited and the difference refunded post-delivery.
– For card payment upon delivery: the actual weight is charged on site.
I paid but didn’t receive an order confirmation.
If payment went through but no confirmation was received, something went wrong. Please reorder and ensure no item in your cart is sold out. The reserved payment will usually be refunded automatically. If needed, contact customer service.
I was charged twice.
If Klarna was used and a double charge occurred, we automatically cancel one of the charges. For all other online payments, the amount is only charged after delivery. If an overcharge occurred, it will be canceled automatically.
How does the payment link work?
Open the link in the email and select your payment method. You can pay via credit card (Mastercard, Visa), AMEX, Klarna, Apple Pay, PayPal, or Google Pay.
Where can I find my invoice?
After delivery, go to “My Account” → “My Documents” to download your invoice and deposit return credit as a PDF.
I received a voucher. Where can I redeem it?
Vouchers are credited as “Credits” to your customer account and can be redeemed on your next order.
Valid vouchers can be entered at knuspr.de/gutschein. Enter the code, and credits are automatically added to your account. You must be logged in or create an account.

Can I pay by invoice on knuspr.de?
