Important Notes

Digital Product Nature

Since digital products are instantly accessible, we ask that you contact us promptly if you encounter issues rather than using the product extensively before requesting a refund.

Refund Processing

Approved refunds are processed back to your original payment method. Processing times vary by payment provider and may take 3-10 business days to appear in your account.

Multiple Refund Requests

Only one refund request per order is allowed. If you've already received a refund for an order, additional refund requests for the same order will not be considered.
