Pāni Terms of Service
Last updated: 22 August 2026
Welcome to Pāni.
These Terms of Service apply to your use of the Pāni website at plantwithpani.co.nz and to purchases made through our website.
By using our website or placing an order with us, you agree to these terms.
Pāni is a New Zealand business and these terms are governed by New Zealand law.
1. About Pāni
Pāni is operated by The Crop Limited ("Pāni", "we", "us" or "our").
Our website provides information about Pāni products and allows customers to purchase products online.
If you have any questions, please contact us at:
Email: info@plantwithpani.co.nz
2. Products
We aim to ensure that product descriptions, photographs, dimensions, colours and other information on our website are accurate.
However, minor variations may occur, particularly because product colours and appearance can vary between photographs, screens and individual products.
We reserve the right to update product information, availability and pricing from time to time.
Nothing in these terms limits your rights under the New Zealand Consumer Guarantees Act 1993 ("CGA") or any other applicable New Zealand law.
3. Prices
All prices displayed on our website are in New Zealand dollars (NZD).
Any applicable taxes will be included in the price displayed at checkout unless clearly stated otherwise.
Delivery charges, where applicable, will be displayed before you complete your purchase.
We take reasonable care to ensure pricing information is accurate. If we discover a genuine pricing error, we will contact you before processing the order and give you the option to proceed at the correct price or cancel the order for a full refund.
4. Orders
When you place an order, you are making an offer to purchase the products selected by you.
Your order is accepted when we confirm the order and payment has been successfully processed, subject to availability.
We may need to cancel an order in limited circumstances, such as where a product is unavailable, there has been an obvious pricing or listing error, or we reasonably suspect fraudulent activity.
If we cancel an order after you have paid, we will provide a full refund of the amount paid for that order.
5. Payment
Payment is processed through the payment options made available at checkout.
We do not normally have access to or store your full payment card details.
You are responsible for providing accurate billing and delivery information when placing an order.
6. Delivery
We aim to dispatch orders within the timeframe stated on our website or at checkout.
Delivery timeframes are estimates and may be affected by circumstances outside our reasonable control, including courier delays, severe weather or other events affecting delivery networks.
We are responsible for ensuring that products are delivered in accordance with your rights under the Consumer Guarantees Act.
If your order does not arrive within a reasonable timeframe, please contact us so that we can investigate and work with you to resolve the issue.
Please check your delivery address carefully before completing your order.
7. Returns, refunds and faulty products
We want you to be happy with your Pāni purchase.
If your product is faulty, damaged, defective, unsafe, does not match its description, or otherwise does not meet the guarantees required under New Zealand consumer law, please contact us.
Depending on the circumstances, you may be entitled to a repair, replacement or refund under the Consumer Guarantees Act.
We will assess the issue and provide the remedy required by law.
Nothing in these Terms of Service, our Refund Policy, or any other information provided by Pāni is intended to exclude, restrict or modify your rights under the Consumer Guarantees Act or other applicable New Zealand legislation.
Change of mind
Our voluntary returns policy for change-of-mind purchases is set out in our Refund & Returns Policy.
A change-of-mind return is separate from your legal rights where a product is faulty or otherwise does not comply with the Consumer Guarantees Act.
8. Product use and safety
Pāni products are intended to be used for their stated purpose and in accordance with any instructions or guidance supplied with the product.
You are responsible for using the product appropriately and safely.
Do not use a product in a way that is inconsistent with its intended purpose or the instructions provided.
If you are unsure whether a Pāni product is suitable for a particular use, please contact us before purchasing.
Nothing in this section limits any rights or remedies you may have under New Zealand consumer law.
9. Website content
We make reasonable efforts to ensure that information on our website is accurate and current.
However, we do not guarantee that every piece of information will always be complete, current or free from error.
We may update, change or remove website content at any time.
Our website may occasionally be unavailable because of maintenance, technical issues or circumstances outside our reasonable control.
10. Intellectual property

Nothing in these Terms of Service excludes, restricts or modifies any right, remedy, guarantee or liability that cannot lawfully be excluded, restricted or modified under New Zealand law.
In particular, nothing in these terms limits your rights under the Consumer Guarantees Act 1993 or the Fair Trading Act 1986.
16. Events outside our control
We will not be responsible for delays or failures caused by circumstances reasonably outside our control, including natural disasters, extreme weather, transport disruptions, strikes, supply interruptions, telecommunications failures or other events beyond our reasonable control.

Your New Zealand consumer rights
Nothing in these Terms of Service removes or reduces your rights under New Zealand law.
The Consumer Guarantees Act 1993 provides guarantees for consumer products including acceptable quality, fitness for purpose, matching descriptions and reasonable durability. Where those guarantees are not met, consumers may have rights to a repair, replacement or refund depending on the circumstances.
The Fair Trading Act 1986 also applies to our advertising, product descriptions, pricing and sales practices.
If there is any inconsistency between these Terms of Service and a mandatory right you have under New Zealand law, the mandatory legal right will apply.
