We are proud to partner with major Canadian retailers like Amazon.ca, Walmart Canada, Best Buy Canada, and Wayfair. We love that you can find our products on the platforms you use every day!
However, many Canadian parents ask us: "Is there a difference if I buy directly from the Freddo Toys Canada website?"
The answer is YES. While our partners are great for general shopping, buying your high-ticket ride-on car directly from FreddoToys.ca unlocks a VIP experience, exclusive CAD pricing, and most importantly: Guaranteed Canadian Shipping (No Duties).
Here is why savvy Canadian shoppers choose to buy direct.
1. The "No Duties" & Best Price Guarantee
When you shop on some marketplaces, it isn't always clear if the product is shipping from the USA or Canada. This can lead to surprise customs fees at your door.
When you shop on FreddoToys.ca, we guarantee:
- Shipped from Canada: All orders ship directly from our Canadian warehouses. No duties, no customs fees, no border delays.
- Direct-Only Coupons: Welcome offers, newsletter discounts, and seasonal promo codes only work on our official site.
- Direct CAD Pricing: No currency conversion fees or hidden markups.
2. Specialized "Expert" Support
When you buy from a massive marketplace and have a technical question, you often get a generic "Contact Seller" form. When you buy direct, you get Freddo Experts.
- We know the difference between a 24V and 48V motor.
- We can troubleshoot remote control pairing instantly (Check our Remote Guide here).
- We stock the specific spare parts for your exact model right here in Canada.
3. The Full Catalog (Don't Settle)
Retailers usually only stock the "Top 10" best-sellers. If you are looking for a specific color of the Mercedes G-Wagon, the rare 4-Seater Beast XL, or the newest New Arrivals, you will often only find the full selection on our official website.
4. Better Warranty & Direct Resolution
Dealing with returns on heavy items (like a 60lb ride-on car) through a third party can be complicated. Buying direct creates a direct relationship with us. If something arrives damaged or needs a part, we can ship you the replacement part immediately from Montreal or Toronto, saving you weeks of waiting.
