General Refund Principles

  • Dealsby Referrals operates on a subscription-based SaaS model. Subscriptions are billed in advance on a recurring monthly basis.
  • By default, all sales are final once the Billing Cycle has begun, except where this Policy explicitly provides for a refund or Service Credit.
  • Refund decisions are made in good faith using the smart logic rules in Section 5. We will not unreasonably withhold a refund where a customer was charged in error, charged twice, or received no usable service.
  • All refunds are issued in U.S. Dollars (USD) to the original payment method through Stripe.
  • Products are sold in the United States only. International requests are evaluated case-by-case and may be denied at Virely's sole discretion.

New-Customer Money-Back Guarantee

14-day money-back guarantee on your first paid Billing Cycle for Dealsby Referrals, subject to the conditions below.

  • Request must be submitted in writing to billing@virely.co within fourteen (14) calendar days of the first successful charge.
  • Applies once per platform, per Account Owner, and per legal entity. Re-subscribers are not eligible a second time.
  • PAYG usage and Add-On Pack consumption during the 14-day window are deducted from the refund at standard rates.
  • If usage exceeds the value of the Subscription fee, no refund is owed; the Subscription will simply be cancelled at the end of the current Billing Cycle.
  • Accounts terminated for fraud, abuse, chargeback history, or ToS violation are not eligible.

Subscription Refunds

6.1 Monthly Subscriptions

  • Monthly Subscriptions are billed in advance and renew automatically on the same calendar day each month.
  • After the 14-day new-customer window, monthly Subscription fees are non-refundable for the current Billing Cycle.
  • Cancellation takes effect at the end of the current Billing Cycle. Customers retain access through the paid-through date.

6.2 Annual or Prepaid Subscriptions

  • Where Dealsby Referrals offers an annual or multi-month prepaid Subscription, customers may cancel for a prorated refund of the unused full months remaining at the time of the request.
  • Discounts applied to annual plans are clawed back from the refund (refund is calculated against the equivalent monthly list price for months already used).
  • Prorated refunds are issued within ten (10) business days.

6.3 Trial Conversions

  • Where a free or discounted trial converts to a paid Subscription, the first paid Billing Cycle is covered by the Section 4 money-back guarantee.

Add-On Packs (SMS / Email Capacity)

Not applicable to Dealsby Referrals. Dealsby Referrals is email-only; SMS Add-On Packs do not apply to this platform.

Pay-As-You-Go (PAYG) Charges

Scope of PAYG for Dealsby Referrals

Dealsby Referrals is email-only. Email PAYG ($0.001 per email) applies above the plan's included capacity. Dealsby Referrals does not bill SMS PAYG and does not offer SMS Add-On Packs.

How PAYG accrues

  • PAYG charges accrue in real time as messages are sent above the plan's included capacity.
  • PAYG charges for messages successfully accepted by the upstream carrier or email provider are final and non-refundable.
  • Messages that fail at the carrier or email provider level are not billed. Erroneous PAYG charges tied to a failed delivery are automatically reversed via Service Credit on the next invoice.
  • If a customer believes PAYG charges were accrued due to an automated loop, bug, or compromised credential, they must notify billing@virely.co within fifteen (15) calendar days of the invoice date. Virely will investigate and may issue a Service Credit at its discretion.

  • Customers may cancel from within dealsbyreferrals.com billing settings or by emailing billing@virely.co.
  • Cancellation stops all future renewals. Access continues through the end of the current Billing Cycle.

  • After ninety (90) days, customer data is permanently deleted from production systems, subject to legal hold and audit retention requirements.

10.3 Reactivation

  • Cancelled accounts may be reactivated within the 90-day retention window at the same plan and rate, subject to availability of the tier and current pricing.

12

Chargebacks & Payment Disputes

  • Customers are required to contact Virely at billing@virely.co before initiating a chargeback with their card issuer.
  • Filing a chargeback without first attempting resolution may result in immediate account suspension pending review.
  • If a chargeback is determined to have been filed against a valid charge, the account may be terminated for cause.
  • If Virely determines a charge was invalid, we will withdraw any contest of the chargeback and waive any administrative fees.
13

Non-Refundable Items

The following are not refundable except where required by applicable law:

  • PAYG charges for SMS and email successfully delivered to the upstream carrier or provider.
  • One-time setup, onboarding, migration, or professional-services fees, unless the work was not delivered.
  • Third-party fees passed through to the customer (e.g., telecom carrier surcharges).
  • Charges to accounts terminated for cause under Section 11.1.
