1. Introduction
Welcome to the Ruby Beans online store. Ruby Beans is a specialized online center offering first-class, premium legumes (pinto beans, red beans, white beans, lentils, chickpeas, split peas, mung beans, and other edible pulses) 100% online with fast postal shipping to household shoppers and bulk customers across Iran.
Ruby Beans does not operate a brick-and-mortar storefront or in-person shopping; all consultations, inquiries, and orders are processed exclusively through our website and WhatsApp messenger. Operations adhere to Iranian electronic commerce legislation and food health regulations.
2. No Account Needed & Customer Information
For simplicity, speed, and customer security, Ruby Beans website contains no registration, login, membership, or account database storing credentials. You can browse our product catalog and initiate orders without ever creating an account.
Delivery details (recipient full name, exact postal address, 10-digit postal code, and phone number) are provided solely in the secure WhatsApp chat by the customer. Accuracy of postal details is the buyer’s responsibility, and this data is strictly utilized for waybill issuance and delivery with official carriers.
3. Products & Pricing
Product specifications including weight, quality grade, crop year, and grain condition are accurately stated on the site. Given the natural characteristics of agricultural products, color and grain size may have minor natural variations across different crop batches.
- All prices listed on the website and catalog are displayed in Toman.
- The final payable price is the one stated on the official proforma invoice provided in the WhatsApp conversation.
- In the event of severe market fluctuations or stock exhaustion prior to invoice confirmation, the customer will be notified to choose an alternative or cancel the order.
4. WhatsApp Order Registration & Confirmation
Direct WhatsApp Ordering
Orders begin directly by selecting weight and clicking order on WhatsApp, and are finalized in the chat conversation.
Proforma Invoice Issuance
An official proforma invoice with exact item details, requested weights, and shipping fees is sent to the buyer in the WhatsApp chat.
Final Confirmation
An order is deemed finalized once bank transfer receipt is provided on WhatsApp and verified by our sales support team.
Accurate Postal Address
The buyer undertakes to provide full and accurate postal address and telephone number for attachment to the waybill.
5. Direct Payment Methods
To enhance security and eliminate gateway failure risks, no online payment gateway is implemented on the website. All transactions take place via direct bank transfer following WhatsApp confirmation and proforma issuance.
- Bank Transfer: Payments are processed via card-to-card, ACH, or wire transfer to the official account and IBAN specified in the WhatsApp chat.
- Payment Verification: The buyer sends a screenshot or tracking number of the transaction in chat, and upon reconciliation, receipt confirmation is issued.
- Bulk & Ton-scale Orders: Official invoices with agreed terms or bank drafts are provided for restaurants, caterers, and organizations.
6. Shipping & Postal Delivery
Ruby Beans operates strictly online, dispatching shipments from the central facility via express post, courier, and reputable freight lines nationwide. In-person pickups are not supported.
- Delivery Time: Retail orders dispatched via post or courier generally reach their destination within 2 to 4 business days.
- Tracking Code: Once the parcel is handed to the carrier, tracking code and waybill are sent via WhatsApp and SMS.
- Shipping Costs: Shipping fees are calculated according to the approved tariffs of postal and freight companies and are the responsibility of the buyer.
7. Health Regulations & Non-Returnable Policy
Pursuant to Article 38 of the Electronic Commerce Law of the Islamic Republic of Iran (2003) and consumer food hygiene regulations of the Food and Drug Administration, edible goods which cannot be returned or resold due to safety and health reasons once their seal is opened or warehouse supervision ceased, are not eligible for arbitrary cancellation or return.
Food Hygiene Principle: Legumes and grains as sensitive consumables cannot be exchanged, returned, or taken back under any circumstances once the hygienic seal has been broken, in order to prevent secondary environmental contamination.
Exceptions for Compensation & Inquiries:
- Discrepancy with Invoice: If the received package prior to opening differs from invoice items, the buyer must send photos of the sealed package on WhatsApp within 24 hours of delivery, whereupon the correct package will be dispatched at no extra charge.
- Damage in Transit: If packaging is torn or spilled during postal transit, the customer must promptly provide the postal damage report or photos so carrier compensation claims and product replacement can proceed.
8. Grain Soundness & Easy-to-Cook Quality
Ruby Beans strives to supply all legumes from the freshest natural harvests of the current crop year, harvested directly from branches and bushes so that customers receive fresh, high-quality, and easy-to-cook produce. Due to direct farm harvesting and the natural state of the grains, the product is not completely free of natural soil or plant debris, and final cleaning before cooking is done by the customer.
Maintaining standard storage conditions for legumes (dry, cool location below 18°C, sealed airtight containers, away from direct sunlight and humidity) rests entirely with the buyer following receipt. Pest infestation resulting from improper warm or humid storage post-delivery is not covered by store commitments.
9. User Obligations
Use of website services and communication with Ruby Beans sales representatives is subject to lawful and ethical conduct. Users undertake to refrain from the following:
- Providing fraudulent postal details or submitting fabricated payment receipts (subject to legal prosecution)

11. Limitation of Liability
Ruby Beans exercises maximum care in procuring premium legumes and robust packaging. Nevertheless, responsibility for delays or force majeure disruptions in postal and carrier services rests with transport operators, though our support team will stand by the customer until final delivery.
The maximum financial liability of Ruby Beans in any claim shall not exceed the amount paid for that specific order.
12. Privacy & Data Security
Because Ruby Beans maintains no registration forms or customer account database, no sensitive identity information, passwords, or payment card details are stored on our servers.
Customer information submitted in the WhatsApp chat (name, address, and phone number) is treated with absolute confidentiality, used solely for invoicing and postal waybills, and will never be shared with third parties for promotional purposes.
