Because Company Overview 

Incontinence - the loss of bladder control, is affecting 25 million people in the US and half of women over 50. Older adults generally avoid talking about it and asking for help sometimes because they’re embarrassed and sometimes because there’s simply nobody to offer help. When they did ask for help or tried buying the products themselves, they would go to around 5-6 pharmacies and stores to find the correct products and still fall short. Thus, Because was founded in 2016 to change this and help the older adults with more efficiency. 

They are trying to offer help by designing and manufacturing products that ensure no leakage, healthy bladder, and overall wellness of health. The products are lab tested and ensure high quality. The products are recommended specifically according to the user’s needs. The customer service also allows the users to pay, change, return, and cancel their products with ease. 

Is Because right for you?

If you are someone or know anyone who suffers from incontinence, Because is the right one for you. They provide a personalized customer experience by quizzing you about the level of absorbency you require, when do you need it - day, night, or both, what would be your preferred product - pads and liners or underwears, a size that would fit you, and how many of that would you need per day. After the assessment of your requirements, they recommend the best-suited product for you. They have packs of leakproof, neutral color underwear whose sizes range from S to XXL.

They have a subscription model where the products are delivered on a monthly basis to your doorstep. If you’re not 100% satisfied with your order, they also offer a 30-day money-back guarantee. They also provide the users with an affordable 16-day trial so you can try out the products before completely committing.

They have user-friendly customer service which makes tasks like - skipping the refill, canceling/returning/exchanging the products, reordering products, changing shipment date/address, tracking and payment of products, pausing/canceling/reactivating your account easier. Currently, they are only shipping in the US but to ship to other countries, you can drop them an email.

Their website is user-friendly and you will be prompted to take a quiz according to your needs and preferences to purchase. You can browse through products and find all the details for the products such as ingredients, benefits, usage, and storage. You will be able to read reviews about the products purchased by other users and get answers to your related queries. The website also sheds light on problems regarding bladder health and suggests protection to ensure the wellness of the same. You can then get recommendations of products suited to you.

What Do We Think About Because?

Because offers a sleek, user-friendly website to navigate through their varied

product offerings, news features and reviews.An updated blog and FAQ section act as a great guide to the overall customer experience. The quiz to know about the user’s needs and preferences is taken by Julie which I think adds a great ‘faux personal touch’ to online shopping. Their customer service is easy to follow and quick to respond.

Getting in touch with them is fairly straightforward as their email ids are available on the website. You can also view their catalogue on their website to know about the soon launching products. What we love about Because is that they offer affordable high-quality products and in case any of their products do not 100% satisfy you, they guarantee 100% money back. Most of their products are fragrance and latex-free so as to not irritate the skin of users. They really seem to have understood the problems and solutions of the elderly. 

Because it seems like a promising brand and we would recommend it to everyone who has or knows someone who has incontinence for better help!
