You order on ivape.ch, and the next morning the parcel is in your letterbox. Quite a lot happens in between. Here is who packs your parcel, where the products come from and why it all moves so fast.
Who handles shipping
iVape is an online shop. We take care of the assortment, the website and customer service. Warehousing, packing and shipping are not done by us. Our logistics partner handles them: Flowline AG in Rümlang, right next to Zurich Airport.
That is why Flowline, not iVape, appears as the sender on your parcel. And that is also why returns go to iVape Retouren, c/o Flowline AG, Riedmattstrasse 5, 8153 Rümlang.
Ten years in the market
Flowline is not a young start-up renting its first warehouse. The company has been in the Swiss market for e-cigarettes, pods, e-liquids and nicotine pouches since 2016. Today Flowline supplies more than 1,000 points of sale across Switzerland: kiosks, petrol stations, tobacconists and specialist shops. The range covers more than 1,500 products.
For you, this means your order is backed by a business that moves stock for the whole Swiss retail trade every day. Your order runs through the same processes.
Straight from the manufacturer
The question that matters most with vapes: is it genuine? With us, yes, and that is down to Flowline.
- Straight from the source: Flowline mostly buys premium products directly from the manufacturer or the official supplier, with no middlemen.
- Own imports: Flowline imports many brands into Switzerland itself, so the origin of every batch is clear.
- General distribution: For LOST MARY, Flowline is the official general distributor for all of Switzerland, and for Ripple+ the exclusive Swiss distributor.
A short supply chain, a clear origin, no grey market. That is why we can promise you genuine products and follow Swiss rules: 20 mg/ml nicotine at most, warnings on every pack, sales only to adults 18 and over.
This is how fast it goes
Flowline ships more than 1,000 orders a week, with an error rate below 0.3 %. That is routine, not luck. For your iVape order:
- 5 pm cutoff: Order on a working day before 5 pm and your parcel leaves the Rümlang warehouse the same day.
- Swiss A Mail: It usually arrives the next working day, two working days at the latest.
- From a Swiss warehouse: No customs, no import charges, no weeks of waiting.
- Free shipping from CHF 29: Below that, shipping is a flat CHF 4.90.
You will find the details in the FAQ on delivery time and shipping.
Discreet packaging
What you order is nobody else's business. That is why every parcel arrives discreetly packed in a plain, neutral box. From the outside, nobody can see what is inside, not the postman and not the neighbours. Only when you open the parcel do you see the original packaging with the legal warnings.
One point of contact for quality
If a device is faulty, something is missing or a delivery is not right, we sort it out together with Flowline. Flowline knows every batch and every supplier. That keeps complaints short: we know where a product comes from and can check or replace it properly. How it works: What do I do if a device arrives faulty?
