If you've ordered from MiPod and noticed an Adult Signature fee at checkout, you may be wondering what it's for — especially if you've already verified your age online. 

The short answer: vape products have additional age-verification and delivery requirements, and that doesn't stop at checkout. 

Packages containing vape and tobacco-related products may require Adult Signature (21+) at delivery, which helps ensure the order is handed to an adult rather than simply being left at the door. 

Here's what you need to know before your MiPod order arrives. 

Why Do I Have to Sign for My Vape Order? 

Adult Signature is an age-verification service used for age-restricted shipments. 

When your MiPod package requires Adult Signature, someone 21 or older must be available to accept and sign for the delivery. 

Depending on the carrier, the delivery driver may also need to verify the recipient's age using a valid government-issued photo ID. 

This isn't MiPod trying to make ordering more complicated. These requirements are part of the rules surrounding the shipment and delivery of age-restricted vapor and tobacco products. 

Why Is There a $6.99 Adult Signature Fee? 

When Adult Signature service is required for your order, a $6.99 fee will be added at checkout. 

This covers the additional Adult Signature service required for the carrier to verify that the person accepting the package is at least 21 and obtain a signature at delivery. 

We know nobody loves an extra fee at checkout, but Adult Signature isn't an optional add-on MiPod can simply remove from an order when the service is required. 

Do I Have to Be the Person Who Signs? 

Not necessarily. 

For packages using standard Adult Signature service, another person who is 21 or older at the delivery address may generally accept and sign for the package. 

The carrier may ask the person accepting the package to show a government-issued photo ID to confirm that they're at least 21. 

So if you're not home when your package normally arrives, another adult at your address may be able to accept it for you. 

Carrier requirements can vary, so always check your tracking information for the specific delivery instructions associated with your shipment. 

What If I'm Usually at Work During Delivery? 

This is one of the biggest headaches with Adult Signature delivery. 

If you know nobody 21+ will normally be home during delivery hours, consider having your order shipped to an eligible business address where an adult will be available to accept it, when permitted by the carrier. 

That could save you from a missed delivery attempt and having to wait for another delivery. 

Just remember: someone 21 or older still needs to be available to accept the package, and the carrier may request ID. 

Why Do I Need to Show ID If MiPod Already Verified My Age? 

Because they're two separate parts of the process. 

Online age verification helps confirm that the person placing an age-restricted order is eligible to purchase the products. 

Adult Signature helps confirm that the package is actually delivered to an adult. 

Think of it as age verification at both ends of the order: when you purchase and when the package is handed over. 

Before Your MiPod Order Arrives 

A little planning can make Adult Signature delivery much easier. 

Once you receive your tracking information: 

• Watch for your expected delivery date. 

• Make sure someone 21+ will be available to sign. 

• Have a valid government-issued photo ID available in case the carrier requests it. 

• If you're rarely home during delivery hours, consider using an eligible business address for future orders. 

• Check your carrier's tracking page if you miss the first delivery attempt. 

The Bottom Line 

We understand that having to be home for a package — and paying an additional $7 Adult Signature fee — isn't the most convenient part of ordering online. 

But age verification doesn't end when you click "Place Order." 

Adult Signature helps make sure age-restricted products are delivered responsibly and into the hands of an adult 21 or older. 

Planning ahead and having an adult available at the delivery address can make the process much smoother and help get your MiPod order into your hands without unnecessary delays.
