1 YEAR HARDWARE WARRANTY
Barking Labs Corp (trading as Fi) (“Fi”, “us”, “our”, and “we”) provides this hardware warranty for any Fi pet collar and associated physical accessories (including a Fi Band, Fi Device, and Fi Charging Base, as applicable) purchased on or after 29 September 2025 from Fi or one of our authorised distributors or resellers (each, an “Authorised Reseller”), for which the original purchaser (or, for a gifted collar, the original possessor of the box of materials) has an active membership (“Covered Product”).
Under this warranty (the “1 Year Warranty”), we warrant to the original purchaser of the Covered Product (or, for a gifted Covered Product, the original possessor of the Covered Product) only that the Covered Product shall be free from defects in materials and workmanship under normal use for as long as the original purchaser or possessor has an active membership for such Covered Product (“Warranty Period”), as documented by a valid proof of purchase—e.g. receipt or invoice. This 1 Year Hardware Warranty is subject to certain exclusions and limitations, as set forth herein.
Fi’s sole obligations under this 1 Year Hardware Warranty are as specified in the WHAT ARE YOUR REMEDIES? section, below.
This 1 Year Hardware Warranty:
- Applies only against defects discovered within the applicable Warranty Period and only so long as the Covered Product remains in the possession of the original purchaser, or, for a gifted Covered Product, the original possessor of that Covered Product.
- Is valid only in the jurisdictions where the Covered Product is sold by Fi itself or by an Authorised Reseller, and is valid to the extent permitted by the applicable laws of such jurisdictions.
WHAT ARE YOUR REMEDIES UNDER THIS 1 YEAR HARDWARE WARRANTY?
If a defect in the Covered Product arises and a valid claim is received by Fi within the Warranty Period, Fi will, at its option and to the extent permitted by law, either (1) repair the defective Covered Product at no charge, using new or refurbished replacement parts, or (2) exchange the defective Covered Product with a new or refurbished Covered Product or a product that is reasonably equivalent to the Covered Product. In the event of a defect, to the extent permitted by law, these are your sole and exclusive remedies. You may be responsible for payment of shipping and handling charges for the delivery of a repaired or replacement Covered Product, except where prohibited by applicable law. Any replacement of a defective Covered Product or parts under this 1 Year Hardware Warranty will be warranted for the remainder of the Warranty Period of the returned Covered Product.
HOW DO YOU OBTAIN WARRANTY SERVICE?
If you believe you need warranty service under this 1 Year Hardware Warranty, please chat with us here. To obtain warranty service, you first will need to obtain a Return Merchandise Authorisation (RMA), which you can request from our support team. In your request, you must include the serial number of the Covered Product, a brief explanation for why you are requesting a return as well as photographs of the damage or defect (to the extent visible) and a description of the steps you have taken to troubleshoot the problem. We may also require that you provide proof of purchase details to obtain the RMA.
Once you receive an RMA, you will need to deliver the defective Covered Product, in either its original packaging or packaging providing an equal degree of protection, together with proof of purchase indicating the date purchased, to the address specified by Fi. By sending the Covered Product, you hereby acknowledge that ownership of the Covered Product is transferred to us upon Fi’s receipt of the defective Covered Product. If Fi determines that the claim is justified based on this 1 Year Hardware Warranty, Fi shall bear the cost of shipping the repaired or replacement Covered Product to you. Any Covered Product returned to Fi without a valid warranty claim or without a RMA may be rejected, returned at your cost (subject to prepayment), or disposed of at Fi’s sole discretion with no further liability or obligation to you.

Claims must be made within the Warranty Period.
WHAT ARE THE EXCLUSIONS AND LIMITATIONS?
This 1 Year Hardware Warranty applies only to Covered Products manufactured by or for Fi that can be identified by the Fi trademark, trade name, or logo affixed to it. The 1 Year Hardware Warranty does not apply to, and the term “Covered Product” shall not include, any (1) Fi products and services other than the Covered Products, (2) consumable parts of a Covered Product (e.g. batteries), or (3) software, even if packaged or sold with the Covered Product or embedded in the Covered Product (e.g. firmware and/or system software), and including our Fi app mobile application. Please refer to the applicable licensing agreement that covers such software for details of your rights with respect to its use.
This 1 Year Hardware Warranty does not apply to any: (1) damage to the Covered Product caused by use with non-Fi products; (2) damage to the Covered Product caused by accident, abuse, misuse (e.g., having been chewed), spillage of food or liquid or other external causes; (3) damage to the Covered Product caused by operating the Covered Product outside the permitted or intended uses described by us in the applicable product specifications and usage manuals; (4) damage to the Covered Product caused by failure to follow instructions relating to the Covered Product’s use, or use of improper voltage or power supply; (5) damage to the Covered Product caused by service performed by anyone who is not a representative of Fi; (6) cosmetic damage to the Covered Product, including but not limited to scratches or dents; or (7) defects or parts requiring replacement due to ordinary wear and tear, corrosion, rust or stains, scratches, dents on the casing or paintwork of the Covered Product; (8) lost Covered Product.
Fi does not warrant that the operations of the Covered Product will be uninterrupted or error-free.
No Fi employee or Authorised Reseller is authorised to make any modification, extension, or addition to this 1 Year Hardware Warranty. If any term of this 1 Year Hardware Warranty is held to be illegal or unenforceable, the legality or enforceability of the remaining terms shall not be affected or impaired.
