About Fitbit purchases and shipping
This article provides everything you need to know about purchasing a Fitbit device and tracking your order.
Due to high volumes and issues caused by COVID-19, many shipping carriers are delayed in delivering packages. Check your tracking information to see the delivery status of your new Fitbit device.
For a complete list of regions where we sell Fitbit products, visit fitbit.com/countries.
How can I track my Fitbit order?
When you place an order through fitbit.com, you receive an email with your confirmation number and order summary. When your order ships, you receive a second email with your tracking number. Click the tracking number in the email to see additional information regarding your order, such as estimated arrival date and shipping progress, and sign up for delivery notifications.
It can take 24-48 hours for your tracking information to update. If it’s not updating, your carrier may have an issue with its shipping status system or may be experiencing service disruptions causing a delay, like bad weather. Additionally, if your package was recently shipped or was sent to an address outside the United States, tracking may not be available.
Occasionally, a carrier will mark a package as delivered before it arrives at the final destination. When this happens, the package is usually delivered within the next few business days. Contact the carrier for additional information about your package's location.

When can I expect my Fitbit order?
Fitbit.com orders typically ship within 24-48 hours from the time you place the order, pending product availability and credit card verification. Delivery time is based on your location and the shipping type you chose. When you place your order, you’ll see an estimated ship date if an item is on back order.
Note: If you pre-order a Fitbit device, we charge your credit card when we ship your device.
If your package doesn't arrive by the estimated delivery date, please allow an additional 2 days before contacting Customer Support. Carriers may deliver packages until 8 p.m.
Additionally, check with anyone who may have accepted your delivery, like other household members, neighbors, or anyone who accepts mail in your building. Keep in mind that carriers sometimes leave packages in safe, hidden places like on a side porch, around your garage, or behind bushes.
If an item is missing from your package, check the packing slip to verify that all the items in your order were in the same shipment. We occasionally split your order into multiple shipments (at no additional cost to you).

Why do I see a duplicate or pending charge on my credit or debit card?
When you order a Fitbit device, we charge your card when we ship your device. However, you might notice a pre-authorization of funds immediately after purchase. Pre-authorizations are typically removed when the full transaction processes; however, some pre-authorizations may take up to 10 days to be removed. If you have questions about a pre-authorization or pending charge, contact your bank. If you still have questions after speaking with your bank, contact Fitbit Customer Support with the following information:
- Screenshot or photo of the charges as they appear on your credit or debit card statement
- Card brand
- Billing address
- Order number
- Date and time of charges
