Refund Policy

Last updated: October 23, 2025

1. General Refund Principles

At Dealforts, we ensure secure transactions through our escrow system. Refunds are processed only under specific conditions to protect both buyers and sellers.

  • Payments are held in escrow until the buyer confirms receipt and satisfaction.
  • Refunds are issued if the transaction is canceled before delivery or if a dispute is resolved in favor of the buyer.
  • Refunds are sent to the original payment method and may take 5–10 business days to process.
2. Refunds for Physical Goods

Refunds for physical products are handled through our escrow and dispute system.

  • Buyers may request a refund if the item was not received within the agreed timeframe or was significantly different from the description.
  • Refund requests must be submitted within 48 hours after confirmed delivery.
  • Sellers will have an opportunity to respond before a decision is made.
  • If approved, escrow funds are released back to the buyer.
3. Refunds for Digital Goods

Digital goods such as files, courses, or access codes are generally non-refundable once accessed or downloaded. However, exceptions apply when:

  • The digital product is inaccessible or corrupted.
  • The seller fails to deliver valid access or files within the stated period.
  • The product is proven to be fraudulent or misrepresented.

Supporting evidence such as screenshots or correspondence may be required for review.

4. Cancellations
  • Buyers can cancel an order and receive a full refund if the seller has not confirmed or shipped the item.
  • Once the seller ships or confirms delivery, cancellations can only occur through a dispute.
  • If a seller cancels before shipping, the buyer is automatically refunded in full.
5. Escrow and Disputes

When a dispute is raised, funds remain locked in escrow until reviewed by Dealforts Support.

  • Our team reviews submitted evidence from both parties, including chat logs, receipts, and delivery proof.
  • If the buyer's claim is validated, a full or partial refund will be issued.
  • If the seller's claim is validated, funds will be released to the seller.
  • The decision made by the Dealforts dispute resolution team is final once communicated.
6. Refund Exceptions
  • Refunds are not issued after a buyer confirms order completion.
  • Refunds are not available for functional products as described.
  • Digital products accessed or downloaded are non-refundable.
  • Fraudulent refund attempts may lead to account suspension.
7. Chargebacks

Filing a chargeback with your bank while a dispute is active on Dealforts may result in account suspension. Please contact our support team first — we're committed to resolving issues fairly and promptly.
