The thing I hate most about the holidays is when it comes to an end. All that anticipation and excitement slowly dies down when its close to the end. The only thing though that I like post-Christmas is shopping! Apart from the fact that malls and retail shops tend to be less crowded, since everyone’s too pooped out and probably broke to shop, I’m loving that brands always have an End Of Season Sale!
Yes, yes yo! Here’s my secret that’s not so secret anymore: I go crazy shopping when the holidays are over. And because I love online shopping, I’m sharing you all my latest discovery- you can now shop at MANGO online!
MANGO is the very first International brand that I tried shopping from that has its own site, which provides hassle-free online shopping experience for their clients all around the world. That being said, our beloved country, the Philippines is one of the countries MANGO ships to. Yahoo!
Your eyes aren’t fooling you! These pretties are on sale and are automatically converted into our currency. You’d be surprised that some are even cheaper online than their SRP while some of them aren’t really available at MANGO stores here in Manila..
And because it is really a hobby of mine to browse (surf, surf the net pay may time haha) online sites of my favourite brands in the wee hours of the night, I stumbled upon a few chic MANGO pieces that I have had a love-at-first sight with. Of course I couldn’t resists, If I did then I wouldn’t have this post to share.
Like this chic shirt that was 500 php off!
You can even navigate MANGO’s online shopping site on your phone with a breeze. Checkout was easy, then you’ll be directed to a page where the usual filling out of information is done. You can choose between PayPal or credit card as your preferred mode of payment. After which you’ll receive a confirmation email, notifying you of your order. Did I mention you get free standard shipping when you order above 6,000 php? Yes, you do.
At first I was scared thinking that standard shipping may mean that my order will be shipped to my city post office. Shucks. For a while I was so nervous that I would have to deal with customs, which means having to pay for an incredibly ridiculous tax which I-don’t-really-understand-how-they-compute-kind-of-hocus-pocu-customs-tax. That was something I got stressed about. Nonetheless, a tweet from MANGO assured me that I need not to pay for any additional tax and that package will be directly delivered to my shipping address.
True enough after just four days, (Christmas day excluded) my package arrived fresh from MANGO Barcelona. Toooroooy!
It arrived directly to my home. Free from having to pay for any additional tax which means free from any unnecessary hassle. Ay lav ett!
I was so impressed with MANGO’s efficiency to deliver my order a few days earlier than I expected. Making it such a refreshing feeling especially for low EQ online shoppers like me, who cannot wait to get a hold of their newly purchased goodies.
Can’t wait to show you what I shopped! Meanwhile, take this opportunity to grab your favourite MANGO pieces! Shop at MANGO online while they’re still on sale. Limited sizes and stocks, but if you know what you want, then you won’t go offline empty-handed π

Hi Jackie! π hallelujah!!! is it really Mango’s standard to have it shipped directly to the customer and not to the local post office? π
jackiego says
Hi Chrissy! Yes, their standard shipping is considered direct shipping to your preferred address. At first natakot ako baka local post office, hindi pala! Hooray! π
CzarinaMaye says

HI Czarina! Yeeeees! Ang saya! Heehee. π
JeRra says
Hi! Its been a year since your post about mango hassle free online shopping. Is their rule about no additional taxes still applied today? I really really love mango brand. Their products is soo awesome and im an online shopper-addict too! So pls let me know if same rules still applied. Do you still shop to their site until now?
Jackie Go says
Hi Jerra!
I believe they haven’t changed their policy because they still offer free shipping for every P6,000 spending. You can tweet Mango to inquire as they accommodate queries naman. Go avail of their 50% deals. Happy shopping π
Jerra says
Hi Jackie! What about if i purchase less than 6000, do i get additional charges? π
Jackie Go says
Hi Jerra! I believe you get charged with appropriate shipping fee. I think it’s at P250? Best to email them for your queries as they reply naman. π

Hi Jackie! Would like to ask what you bought from Mango last year? The photos here on your site are not viewable anymore.
Did you purchase bags, shoes, accessories, or just clothes? I am not sure pero it depends yata sa items being shipped kung may sisingiling tax ang customs dito sa Ph?
I am asking because I recently purchased items from Mango online and I am going crazy right now worrying about the customs tax.
Last year kasi, I ordered a pair of shoes from a different store in the US and I had to pay a ridiculous amount of tax for it. π
My purchase from Mango’s online shop consists of a bag, a coat, a necklace, and a pair of sneakers. You can just imagine how worried I am now. Waaaahhh :((
Jackie Go says
Hi Nixx!
I bought clothes from MANGO. I didn’t pay for any additional tax as the items I purchased were delivered straight to my doorstep. π I even asked MANGO if I will need to pay additional tax and they swiftly replied that there’s no additional tax on my bill. π I hope this helps π
Nixx says
Yes, thank you so much!
I’ve been tracking my package religiously and accdg to DHL, PH customs issued clearance and release for it. Whew! π
Thanks again for the help! God bless and more power to you!
Jackie Go says
You’re welcome! Enjoy your Mango loot! π God bless you too!
Jenna says
Hi Jackie,
I’m currently shopping for stuff at mango…and it seems payment through credit card just wont go through…have you encountered this problem before? I used my credit card at other sites and it successfully goes through…i was so excited to shop….
Jackie Go says
Hi Jenna! I haven’t experienced that, have you tried it again? Perhaps they’re having a system error upon your checkout.
Juvelle Pua says
Can’t see all the comments. Is it still tax-free if I buy something on Mango online?
Thanks,
Velle
Jackie Go says
Hi Juvenile, based on my experience my items were shipped directly to my home na. Didn’t go through Philippine postal service so I didn’t pay additional tax.
vicky says
hi, i wonder why I can’t see the comments. anyway, are mango online purchases still ship directly to the shipping address, and not the post office? still no need to pay tax? do you have any experience making an exchange? can we exchange it in our stores here in the philippines? thanks
Jackie Go says
Hi Vicky! In my experience they shipped to my door directly & not the post office. Didn’t pay for tax naman (basta my total was with tax na) and I haven’t tried making an exchange. π
Marlee Santos says
Hi can I ask? I ordered last minutes ago in the Mango App. However, I used visa as mode of payment. The amount was deducted but I didnt get the chance to get my order number and details and it is said that my order was declined. Do they have customer service here in the Philippines? I hope you could help me.
Jackie Go says
Hi Marlee!
Have you checked your email? If you didn’t get a confirmation on your email then your order didn’t push through? Best to check your credit card if amount was charged. Not sure about the customer service here in the Philippines. But you can get in touch with the online customer service https://shop.mango.com/ph/women/help/376.html
Let me know how it goes.
fran says
Hi Jackie! I just ordered from Mango as well and i’m wondering lang if your items were shipped through DHL? Hoping i don’t have to pay any extra fees π
Jackie Go says
Hi Fran,
Yes, my items were shipped via DHL as well. When I received it I didn’t need to pay for any extra fees. Let me know how it goes for you!
Jackie Go says
Hi Fran!
No extra fees but I can’t remember if it was FedEx or DHL π
