Ordering and paying

In the NILE online store, you can pay using various credit cards, and via Twint (Switzerland only) and KLARNA (on account). 

You can redeem your promo code on the shopping cart or on the checkout page in the "Enter a promo code" field. The discount will then be deducted directly from your order. It is important that you are logged in with your NILE customer account.

 

To redeem a gift card, select the payment method "Pay by gift card" in the checkout and enter the corresponding number of your gift card.

Please check that you are logged into your NILE customer account. If you are logged in and your promotional code is still not being accepted, please contact our Customer Service

If your discount code is valid for one favorite item, it will be applied to the most expensive one.
If two items have the same price, the discount will be applied to the item that was added to the cart first.

If you return the reduced item, the discount will not be automatically transferred to a retained item and deducted.

Customer account

You can register for a NILE customer account in a NILE store or in the online shop via the account page

When you set up a customer account with NILE, you will immediately receive the Nilecard. As a member of this loyalty program, you can collect points with each purchase and redeem them against future purchases. 

When you buy non-discounted items, one point per CHF/EUR will be credited to your Nilecard. When you buy reduced-price items or use discounts, you will receive 0.5 points per CHF/EUR. Once you have collected a minimum of 1,000 points on your Nilecard, you can redeem them in any NILE store and online at nile.ch. Ten points correspond to a value of CHF/EUR 1, meaning you will have points credit equivalent to 10% off your favorite items when purchasing at full price and 5% off your favorite items when purchasing at a discount. You must redeem a minimum of 1,000 points (equivalent to CHF 100/EUR 100) each time. Click here to find out more about the benefits of the Nilecard.

 

As a NILE customer, you’ll also receive a small surprise on your birthday, various discount promotions and invitations to events. 

You can change certain account information, such as the delivery address, yourself in your personal customer account on the website. Please contact our Customer Service if you need any help with changing your personal account information.
