How to Change Shipping Address in Meesho After Order Placed:

Let’s be honest—online shopping is awesome until you realize you’ve made a mistake. Maybe you hit “Place Order” too fast or forgot you were shipping to your old house. If you’ve ever placed an order on Meesho and then realized the delivery address is wrong, don’t panic. You’re not the only one, and more importantly, you’re not stuck.

In this detailed, easy-to-follow guide, we’ll walk you through exactly what to do if you need to change your shipping address on Meesho after placing your order. Whether you’re a first-timer on the Meesho app or a seasoned shopper, this guide has everything you need to fix your order with confidence.

1. Understanding Meesho and Why Address Accuracy Matters

Meesho is one of India’s most popular e-commerce platforms, known for its affordable prices and wide variety of products. From traditional wear to kitchen gadgets to the latest mobile accessories—Meesho has it all. But while shopping with your phone is super convenient, mistakes can happen, especially when you save old addresses or accidentally tap the wrong location.

Why does the shipping address matter so much?

Delivery agents rely on accurate addresses to deliver items on time.
Incorrect details can lead to failed deliveries or parcels sent to the wrong location.
If gifts or business orders are involved, a wrong delivery can throw a wrench in your plans.

In short, the shipping address is probably the most important piece of information after the item itself. So, let’s make sure it’s always right.

2. How Meesho Handles Shipping Address Updates

Here’s the key thing every Meesho shopper should know: You cannot change the shipping address once your order has been placed. This is because Meesho instantly sends the order to their sellers and logistics team to process and ship it as soon as possible. Once the process begins, no edits are allowed.

That said, you can fully cancel your order and place it again using the correct shipping address.

Reorder with New Address	✅ Yes	✅ Yes	⚠️ Only if product allows return

3. Changing Your Address Before You Place Your Meesho Order

The easiest (and smartest) time to make sure your shipping address is correct is BEFORE you place the order. If you’re reading this ahead of time or just being cautious—this section is for you.

Steps to Update or Select the Correct Address Before Ordering:

Open the Meesho App and go to your Cart.
Tap on Checkout.
Under the delivery address section, you’ll see an “Edit” or “Add New Address” button.
Tap Add New Address or select a saved one.
Fill in these details carefully:
- Full Name
- House/Flat/Building Number
- Street or Area
- City and State
- PIN Code
- Mobile Number
Save and select the correct address.
Proceed with payment and confirm your order.

Pro Tip: Always re-confirm your delivery address before tapping that final “Place Order” button—especially if you’ve moved recently or share your Meesho account with family members.

4. What to Do If You Need to Change Address After You’ve Ordered

Now let’s get into the real reason you’re probably here: you already placed the order and realized the address is incorrect. So here’s what you need to do.

Unfortunately, you cannot edit the shipping address on an existing order.

But don’t worry. Here’s what actually works:

Step-by-Step Fix:

1. Cancel Your Order

Go to the Meesho App and tap on My Orders
Find the order you want to cancel
Tap Cancel Order
Choose a cancellation reason (you can simply select “Wrong address”)
Done! Your order will now be canceled

2. Add or Update the Correct Address

Return to the product page you originally ordered from
Tap Buy Now
On the checkout screen, tap Edit/Add New Address
Fill in the right address details (PIN code, street, city, etc.)
Select this new address for delivery

3. Reorder

Complete checkout using the corrected shipping information
Your order will now be sent to the right place!

✔️ Problem solved without having to wait days or deal with delivery hassles.

5. Can You Change Your Meesho Address After Shipment?

Once your order is shipped or out for delivery, you’re dealing with delivery logistics, and not even Meesho can magically change your address after that point.

Here’s what you can try:

Contact the delivery agent, if their number becomes available via SMS or app notification.
Politely request if they can deliver to a nearby address—but understand that they’re not always authorized to change the delivery location.
If delivery fails, Meesho typically initiates a return to the seller and you can reorder.

Limitations:

Courier companies like Ecom Express, Delhivery, Shadowfax, or XpressBees do not allow re-routing items due to safety and tracking policies.
Once shipped, cancellations may no longer be available.

6. How Meesho Refunds Work If You Cancel and Reorder

If you’re wondering, “Will I get my money back?”—the simple answer is YES.

When you cancel a prepaid Meesho order, your money gets refunded back into the original payment source (your bank, UPI, card, or wallet). COD (Cash on Delivery) orders don’t require a refund since you haven’t paid yet.

Refund Timeline

Payment Mode	Refund Time After Cancellation
UPI	2–5 working days
Debit/Credit Card	3–7 working days
Wallets (e.g. Paytm)	2–5 working days
COD	Not applicable (no refund needed)

You’ll get a message confirming the refund, and you can always track it from the Order section in your Meesho app.

7. Smart Tips to Manage Addresses in Meesho

Managing your saved addresses well can save you a lot of stress in future orders. Here are some useful strategies:

1. Save Multiple Addresses

Keep common delivery locations saved—home, office, in-laws, etc. This makes it quick and easy to toggle between the right ones during checkout.

2. Delete Old or Inactive Addresses

Don’t let outdated or wrong addresses clutter your profile. It’s easy to mistakenly click the wrong one.

3. Use Nicknames or Labels

Add a note to your address like “Home (2nd floor)” or “Office next to Metro” to make sure it’s clear, especially for delivery people.

4. Review Your Account Monthly

If you move around a lot, make it a habit to visit your Meesho Account > Address Book monthly and remove addresses you no longer use.
