Refund Policy
When you get money back, and when you do not.
Last updated 19 August 2026
The short version
Try the Service free for 3 days before paying anything. After that, plans are billed monthly in advance and are not refundable for a period already started, but you can cancel at any time, and cancelling stops the next charge.
The free trial
Every account begins on a free Growth-tier trial: 3 days, up to 1,000 messages, no card required. The trial exists so you can decide before you spend anything, and no charge is made unless you choose a plan. When it ends, linked numbers are disconnected until a plan is chosen; the pairing is retained, so reconnecting does not require scanning a QR code again.
Monthly plans
- Plans are billed in advance for the month ahead.
- Cancelling stops the next renewal. The period you have already paid for runs to its end and the Service stays available until then.
- We do not pro-rate or refund the unused part of a period that has started.
- Downgrades take effect at the next renewal, not immediately, because the period is already paid.
- Upgrades take effect immediately and are charged pro-rata for the remainder of the period.
First payment
If you are unhappy within 7 days of your first payment, write to us and we will refund it in full. This applies once per customer, to the first paid month only.
When we will refund beyond that
- A prolonged failure of the Service that was our fault and that we could not resolve.
- A billing error on our side: a duplicate charge, or a charge after a valid cancellation.
- Where consumer law where you live gives you a right we cannot exclude.
When we will not
- WhatsApp restricting, suspending or banning a connected number. This is the risk you accept in section 2 of the Terms, and it is outside our control.
- Suspension or termination for breach of the Acceptable Use Policy.
- Not using the Service during a period you paid for.
- Dissatisfaction with features that were described accurately before purchase.
How to ask
Email [email protected] from the address on the account, with the invoice reference and what went wrong. We aim to decide within 5 business days, and approved refunds go back to the original payment method within 10 business days.
Chargebacks
Please talk to us before raising a chargeback. It is almost always faster. We may suspend an account with an open chargeback until the dispute is resolved.
