What is SnackCrate?

SnackCrate is for those of us who like trying new things. Every month we have a team scour a new country looking for the most popular snacks. They eat a LOT, gain a few pounds and pass on the wisdom of that country’s snack food culture. We take everything we like (even the weird stuff) and send it off to you in a shiny blue box.

SnackCrate is a great place to work too. We live on the sugar white beaches of Pensacola, Florida. When we’re not out on the beach we are coding, packing boxes, emailing, traveling, tasting, and playing with our office dogs Willow and Oliver.

How do I join SnackCrate?

Click on the “Get Started” button on SnackCrate.com. Select your first country and which SnackCrate size you’d like to receive. Once you fill in the billing information we’ll ask you for your shipping info and email address. Then, you’re all set!

How many snacks do I get?

Good question! Each monthly crate contains either 4-6, 8-10, or 16-18 snacks. We split that into half candy, half snackfood (chips, crackers, cookies, ect.). We seek out the most popular snacks from each country to include in your crate. Since every month is a different country, you’ll never see the same item twice.

We spend a great deal of time considering what goes into a country’s crate. We interview locals, scour the internet, visit the countries, and finally, taste them ourselves. If you’d like to see some of our happy members with their crates, simply search #SnackCrate on your favorite social media site.

Can I choose which snacks I receive?

Nope, and that’s kind of the point. We want to surprise you every month with things you’ve never seen before. However, if you have ideas for what we should put in a particular crate please let us know.

When will I get my snack crate?

For new customers, your crate will ship soon after you sign up (usually within a week).

For current customers, your account will renew on the 5th of each month and your crate will ship by the end of that month. Delivery dates are not guaranteed and may vary from month to month.

You can always check the status of your order (and see when it will ship) in the Snack Tracker on your account page.

Why does it take until the end of the month for my SnackCrate to ship?

Everything in your SnackCrate is made and imported just for you. After your order is confirmed on the 5th, the order for your snacks is submitted to the manufacturer. After your snacks are freshly made, they are flown to the United States and submitted to U.S. Customs. After they are inspected and approved for safety, they are boxed up and shipped out to you. This process takes about 3 weeks from the day your order is confirmed.

This is the real deal. Your snacks are coming directly from the country of the month and that takes a little time.

What are my shipping options?

We are happy to offer free shipping to all orders in the United States. We ship primarily with USPS. SnackCrates typically arrive within 3 business days after shipping. Each month, subscribers will receive an email containing a tracking number.

Where do you ship to?

We ship to any address in the United States and territories.
