Whether it’s clothing, footwear, sports equipment, or a camping kit, GO Outdoors often offers the best value for money on the market.

But what if you find a cheaper item elsewhere – does GO Outdoors price match? 

GO Outdoors does offer a price match policy to Member’s Card holders. This will beat any competitor’s price by 10%. The match is available as soon as the competitor price has been checked and confirmed as in stock.

How to Claim Price Match Plus

In-Store

If you want to claim Price Match Plus before buying, talk to a member of GO Outdoors staff. It’s best to have the product URL link ready to show them as proof of the competitor’s price. 

When you want to claim a GO Outdoors price match after buying, you need to bring your receipt or other proof of purchase to the same store you purchased the item from.

Again you’ll also need to prove the cheaper competitor price. 

Online

For an online price match, you need to order your item first. Then use the contact form supplied here to provide details.

As long as GO Outdoors can confirm the competitor’s price and all conditions are met, you’ll be issued a partial refund. 

The form requires the following details:

  • Your name, email address, and phone number
  • The GO Outdoors product code (you can find this online under the product listing)
  • The lower price amount, color, and size plus the URL for checking

Does Go Outdoors Have a Price Adjustment Policy?

The GO Outdoors Price Match Plus policy applies within seven days of purchase. 

So if you find that the exact same item would have been cheaper when buying from a competitor, you can still claim the price adjustment. 

GO Outdoors, therefore, honors its Price Guarantee policy within one week of purchase. 

A refund for the difference in price plus 10% will therefore be made for qualifying items. Remember that this applies only to Member’s Card Holders.

GO Outdoors Price Match FAQs

Does GO Outdoors Price Match Amazon?

GO Outdoors does price match Amazon, as with any other high street or online retailer. The same terms and conditions apply to Amazon as to all other Price Match Plus transactions.

This means the item must be the same color, size, and brand, and you must supply GO Outdoors with the URL to check this. Amazon must have the brand-new item in stock, ready for immediate shipping. 

All the other terms apply, as usual, so you must have a GO Outdoors Member’s Card to qualify. Remember also that the company reserves the right to withdraw its price guarantee whenever they wish.
