Terms of Service

Last updated: 1 July 2026

These Terms of Service (“Terms”) govern your access to and use of the NICOTAWINES website, products, and services operated by NICOTAWINES Limited (“NICOTAWINES”, “we”, “our”, or “us”). By accessing our website or placing an order, you agree to be bound by these Terms. If you do not agree, please do not use our services.

1. Eligibility

By using our services, you confirm that:

  • You are at least 18 years of age or the legal drinking age in your country of residence, whichever is higher
  • You have the legal capacity to enter into a binding contract
  • You are not prohibited by any applicable law from purchasing, receiving, or consuming alcoholic beverages
  • All information you provide to us is accurate, current, and complete

NICOTAWINES reserves the right to verify age and identity at any time and to refuse service where eligibility cannot be confirmed.

2. Products and Pricing

All products listed on our website are subject to availability. We reserve the right to discontinue any product at any time without notice.

Prices are displayed in Nigerian Naira (NGN) and are inclusive of applicable taxes unless otherwise stated. Prices are subject to change without prior notice. The price applicable to your order is the price displayed at the time of checkout.

Product images are for illustrative purposes only. The actual product, including vintage, label design, or packaging, may differ slightly from that shown.

3. Orders and Payment

Placing an order constitutes an offer to purchase the selected products at the stated price. We reserve the right to accept or decline any order at our discretion.

Order confirmation does not constitute acceptance. A binding contract is formed when we dispatch your order and send a dispatch confirmation.

Payment must be made in full at the time of ordering. We accept payment via bank transfer, card payment, and other methods displayed at checkout. All transactions are processed securely through our payment partners.

In the event of a pricing error, we will notify you and offer the option to proceed at the correct price or cancel your order with a full refund.

4. Delivery

We deliver to addresses within Nigeria. Delivery timelines are estimates and may vary based on location, carrier availability, and circumstances beyond our control.

Risk of loss and title to products pass to you upon delivery to the address provided. You are responsible for ensuring someone of legal drinking age is available to receive the delivery.

We are not liable for delays caused by third-party logistics providers, customs procedures, weather events, or other circumstances beyond our reasonable control.

If delivery fails due to an incorrect address provided by you, or because no authorised person was available to receive the order, additional delivery charges may apply for re-delivery.

5. Returns and Refunds

Due to the nature of alcohol products, we generally do not accept returns once goods have been delivered and accepted. Exceptions apply where:

  • Products are delivered damaged or defective
  • You received incorrect items
  • Products are corked or otherwise unfit for consumption upon first opening

Claims for damaged, defective, or incorrect products must be made within 48 hours of delivery with photographic evidence. Where a valid claim is accepted, we will offer a replacement or refund at our discretion.

Refunds, where applicable, will be processed within 7-14 business days to the original payment method.

6. Wine Club Membership

Wine Club membership is subject to separate terms communicated at registration. Membership benefits, pricing, and allocation schedules are at NICOTAWINES' discretion and may be modified with reasonable notice.

Membership is personal and non-transferable. NICOTAWINES reserves the right to suspend or terminate membership where these Terms or Wine Club rules are breached.

7. Intellectual Property

All content on the NICOTAWINES website, including but not limited to text, images, logos, product descriptions, graphics, and software, is the intellectual property of NICOTAWINES Limited or its licensors and is protected by Nigerian and international intellectual property laws.

You may not reproduce, distribute, modify, or create derivative works from any content without our prior written consent. You may not use our brand name, logos, or trademarks in any manner that suggests endorsement or affiliation without our express written permission.

8. User Accounts

You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account credentials and for all activity that occurs under your account. You agree to notify us immediately of any unauthorised access or suspected security breach.

We reserve the right to suspend or terminate accounts where there is evidence of fraudulent activity, breach of these Terms, or conduct that is harmful to other users or to NICOTAWINES.

9. Prohibited Conduct

When using our website and services, you agree not to:

  • Purchase products on behalf of a minor or provide alcohol to anyone under the legal drinking age
  • Use our services for any unlawful purpose or in violation of any applicable regulation
  • Attempt to gain unauthorised access to our systems, data, or accounts

10. Limitation of Liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, NICOTAWINES shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages arising from your use of our website, products, or services, including but not limited to loss of profits, data, or goodwill.

Our total liability to you for any claim arising from these Terms or your use of our services shall not exceed the total amount paid by you for the specific order giving rise to the claim.

Nothing in these Terms limits our liability for death or personal injury caused by our negligence, fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation, or any other liability that cannot be excluded by law.

11. Indemnification

You agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless NICOTAWINES Limited and its officers, directors, employees, and agents from and against any claims, liabilities, damages, losses, and expenses (including reasonable legal fees) arising from your breach of these Terms, your use of our services, or your violation of any applicable law or third-party right.

13. Governing Law and Disputes

These Terms are governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the Federal Republic of Nigeria. Any dispute arising from or in connection with these Terms shall be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of Lagos State, Nigeria.

Before initiating formal legal proceedings, we encourage you to contact us to resolve any dispute informally. We are committed to resolving complaints fairly and promptly.

14. Changes to These Terms

We reserve the right to update these Terms at any time. Changes will be effective upon posting to our website. Your continued use of our services after any changes constitutes your acceptance of the updated Terms. We encourage you to review these Terms periodically.
