Refund Policy
Last updated: [Effective date]
Plain rules for when a payment is refunded and how the amount is worked out.
1. Overview
HiVouch is prepaid and charged only for successful verifications. This policy sets out when we refund a payment. All amounts are in US dollars (USD) and payments are processed by ezPayments.
2. Verification packages
You can ask for a refund of a package if both of these are true:
- the request is made within 14 days of the payment; and
- the package still has unused verifications.
A package that has expired or has been fully used cannot be refunded.
3. How the refund is calculated
The refund is pro rata:
refund = amount paid x unused verifications / verifications received
- "Verifications received" includes any bonus verifications that came with the package.
- The result is rounded down to the cent.
- The unused verifications are removed from your balance when the refund is issued.
- A promo code you redeemed on the purchase is not returned.
Example: you paid $40.00 for a package that gave you 50,000 verifications and you have used 10,000. You have 40,000 unused, so the refund is $40.00 x 40,000 / 50,000 = $32.00.
4. Custom number yearly fee
- The yearly fee is refunded in full if you ask within 14 days of payment and the number never went live.
- Once the number has gone live, the fee is not refundable.
- Refunding the fee disconnects the number.
5. What is not refundable
- Packages that have expired or been fully used.
- Requests made more than 14 days after payment.
- A promo code redeemed on a purchase.
- A custom number fee after the number has gone live.
- The free daily verifications, which cost nothing.
6. How to ask and when it arrives
Email [email protected] from the address on your account, with the invoice number. Refunds are issued to the original card. They usually arrive in 5 to 10 business days, depending on your bank.
This policy does not limit any right you have under the law.
