Shopping for marijuana online can be stressful yet interesting at the same time. If you’ve never considered buying weed online, you may be impressed or even overwhelmed by all the variety that there is offered: bud, vape pens, edibles, distillate, and the list goes on.
With that in mind, we’d like to present you the complete guide on how to legally buy weed online in 2021. Making things easy, we will dissect each step of the process, from finding your favourite product to placing your order and having it delivered.
Knowing Which Type Of Product You Want
Cannabis has evolved to unthinkable heights in today’s industry, coming out with products that pioneers could never even imagine to exist. Practically anything edible can be infused with THC or CBD nowadays, opening the door for new and exciting experiences. With that said, take time to explore your options and narrow down 3-5 products from your favourite site that you’d like to try. Keep in mind, different intake methods can yield different effects to your body so do a little homework before you rush to the checkout.
Placing Your Order
Add the products you want into your cart and fill in the shipping details. It’s important to pay attention as some sites offer free shipping if you meet a certain spending minimum. Double-check to ensure everything looks proper and accurate on the checkout page before completing your order.
At this point, depending on the site you’re shopping from, the next step can vary. Some online dispensaries may offer Credit Card payment via encrypted plugins or Cryptocurrency. However, 95% of online MOM’s accept payment via Interac e-Transfer, which is safer for both the seller and buyer. If your dispensary is the latter, check your email inbox for the next step to your ordering process.
Sending Your Payment (Interac e-Transfer)
At this point in the process, you should be receiving an order confirmation email in your inbox after placing your order. The email will ask you to send your payment via Interac e-Transfer and will then provide the information you need to complete the transaction.
Here is a brief guide on how to properly send dispensaries your e-Transfers: Head over to your online banking page, select the option resembling the nature of “send a payment”, then enter the dispensary’s email address in the “recipient” field. BE SURE not to include any mentions of marijuana or the name of the website in this step, or your payment may get flagged by the bank!
After you’ve successfully sent the e-Transfer, you should receive another email confirming that your payment has been received and that your order has shipped out. A tracking code will then be provided for you shortly after.
Tracking Your Product Shipment
If your dispensary ships via Canada Post like WeedHub, you can track your shipment on the Canada Post website. Other dispensaries may ship through DHL or FedEx, or even offer local delivery. Orders are typically shipped out within 1 business day of a dispensary receiving the order and posted via Express Post. The delivery time for Express Post is quoted 1-2 days, though may differ based on areas and delivery volumes. A Calgary package shipped to Edmonton will be much faster than a Toronto package shipped to Vancouver.
