  • The address and phone number provided do not match what your bank has on file

Your Buy Online, Pickup In-Store order was canceled

Once you have placed your order for pickup in-store, a a Store Colleague will find the item and put it aside for you. In some cases, an item from your order has been purchased in-store and is no longer available. You will be notified by email if any items from your order are unavailable.


Also, if your order is not picked up within seven days, it will be canceled.

Your Same-Day Delivery or Next-Day Delivery order was canceled

Orders over $500 require a signature when the delivery arrives. If you are unavailable to accept the delivery after multiple attempts, your order will be canceled. Orders under $500 don't require a signature and will be left at the delivery address.

Your order was canceled the day after you placed it

If this happens, it’s likely there was an issue with our inventory, and during the fulfillment process, the item was no longer available.

While Macy's always tries to ensure accuracy, we reserve the right to correct any errors in pricing or descriptions and to cancel or refuse to accept any order based on an incorrect price or description. Such corrections may be made even after an order is accepted.
